In this revealing episode of 15 Minutes with Dad, host Lirec Williams breaks down how attachment theory explains the hidden emotional scripts that shape men, fathers, and partners in adulthood.

From homes marked by addiction, untreated mental health issues, or generational trauma in the 1950s–80s, many fathers inherited patterns of emotional distance, physical punishment, and survival-based parenting. These unhealed experiences often lead to anxious, avoidant, or dismissive-avoidant attachment styles that show up in marriages, co-parenting, and everyday fatherhood challenges.

Through research-based growth insights and practical reflection, Lirec helps fathers identify their attachment style, recognize unhealthy relationship cycles, and begin writing a new story—one built on emotional healing, parenting resilience, and healthy masculinity.

🎯 What You’ll Learn:

  • How childhood experiences shape emotional and relational patterns in men
  • The difference between anxious, avoidant, and dismissive-avoidant attachment styles
  • How the father wound impacts communication and co-parenting
  • Practical tools to create emotional presence and secure attachment for your children

This episode is for every father ready to transform generational pain into purpose—and build the foundation for modern fatherhood rooted in healing, integrity, and love.
