In this episode of The Sacred Gentleman podcast, host Steve Baumgartner breaks down the silent generational cycles destroying modern fatherhood, and why emotional absence wounds a son just as deeply as physical absence ever could.Steve shares his own father's wound story - the abuse he endured from his biological father, the quiet ache of feeling invisible to the dad who adopted him, and the downward spiral into drugs, alcohol, and rebellion that followed. From rock bottom, he walks through exactly how he broke the cycle with his own kids and built a framework any father can use today.You'll learn the 3-step framework for raising sons who are resilient, capable, and emotionally secure: auditing your father's wounds, modeling emotional regulation, and establishing distraction-free presence.
