Dads With Daughters

Dr. Christopher Lewis built this podcast around a specific niche that doesn't get enough attention: the unique relationship between fathers and daughters. With over 230 weekly episodes, he's carved out a real community for dads who want to be more intentional about raising girls in a world that's still figuring out gender dynamics. The format is almost entirely interview-based. Each week, Chris brings on a different guest -- sometimes another dad sharing his story, sometimes a parenting expert, author, or psychologist who specializes in father-daughter relationships. Conversations cover everything from teaching consent and emotional resilience to handling the teenage years without completely losing the connection you built when they were little. Chris has a warm, unhurried interview style. He asks genuine questions and lets his guests talk, which means you get a real range of perspectives rather than one person's philosophy repeated over and over. The academic background (he holds a doctorate) shows in how thoughtfully he frames topics, but he keeps the language accessible and grounded. The show's mission is about helping fathers become active, engaged participants in raising what Chris calls "strong independent women." It's not preachy about it -- more like a weekly reminder that showing up matters, and here are some specific ways to do it better. If you're a dad to daughters at any age, this one fills a gap that most general parenting podcasts leave wide open.
