Can Fathers Impact Daughters' Eating Habits More Than We Think? A Conversation w/ Jessica Setnick Artwork

The DAUGHTERED Podcast

The Daughtered Podcast is a fatherhood podcast for men who are committed to becoming stronger, more mindful, and more present—especially in the lives of their daughters.

Built for girl dads and intentional fathers, this show explores what it really means to grow as a man and raise strong daughters. We dive into parenting daughters, modern masculinity, leadership at home, and the emotional intelligence required to build deep, lasting father–daughter relationships.

Fatherhood is a journey of growth. Every stage—from toddler tantrums to teenage talks—brings new challenges, deeper lessons, and opportunities to rise. Each conversation on this podcast is designed to help you reflect, level up, and lead with purpose—not just as a dad, but as a husband and man.

Being Daughtered means embracing the lessons our daughters are constantly teaching us—and allowing those lessons to shape us into better fathers, partners, and role models. It means slowing down, listening more, and showing up with intention.

We challenge current misconceptions of masculinity and lead with strength, presence, vulnerability, and purpose. Because presence is power. Vulnerability is strength. And love is the legacy we leave.

This isn’t a space for perfect dads. It’s a space for growing dads.

Through real stories, honest conversations, and practical tools, The Daughtered Podcast supports men who want to father with intention, lead with integrity, and raise confident, capable daughters.

Whether you’re new to fatherhood or decades in—you belong here.

This is more than a podcast.
It’s a mindset. A movement. And a community of fathers choosing to lead at home.
