    Fatherhood, Forgiveness & the Fathers Who Shaped Us | Season 02 Episode 09 | Vlad & Angie

    Share your thoughts with us! Father's Day may have passed, but the conversations it sparked are just getting started.  In this deeply personal episode of Roots & Rhythm, Vlad and Angie reflect on what it means to be fathered, what it means to become a parent, and how those experiences shape the adults we become. Together, they explore the complicated relationships many of us have with our fathers—celebrating the lessons that stayed with us while confronting the wounds that still need healing.  Vlad shares powerful reflections on rebuilding his relationship with his father, forgiveness, and how becoming a father himself transformed the way he understands generational trauma. Angie opens up about growing up in a large Cuban family, navigating her father's dementia, and finding peace without the closure she once hoped for.  Whether your relationship with your father is thriving, strained, complicated, or absent altogether, this conversation is an invitation to reflect, heal, and move forward.  In this episode, we discuss:   Why Father's Day often feels different than Mother's Day  The changing role of fathers across generations  Growing up with emotionally unavailable parents  Becoming the parent you wish you had  Forgiveness without forgetting  Breaking generational cycles  What fatherhood teaches us about ourselves  This is one of our most honest conversations yet—and we hope it reminds you that healing often begins by understanding the people who came before us.   📖 About The Embrace Method Are you ready to embrace your best life?

    Should You Cut Off Your Parents? The No Contact Debate Nobody Wants To Have | Season 02 Episode 7 | Vlad & Angie
