Stress can either control us… or sharpen us.

In this solo episode, Oscar talks about the pressure his family is navigating during a major transition and how stress impacts fathers, marriages, and daughters more than we realize.

A conversation about emotional shutdown, resilience, stress inoculation, mindfulness, and teaching our daughters how to handle pressure in healthy ways.

What does your daughter learn from you — even when you’re not trying to teach?

In this episode, we explore the deeper side of fatherhood — the kind that challenges your identity, your ego, and the way you show up every day.

I’m joined by Christopher Veal, a TEDx speaker, Certified Professional Co-Active Coach, and author of The Whole Man: Evolving Masculinity, and the host of The Vulnerable Man Podcast. His work centers on helping men better understand vulnerability and redefine what it means to be a man in today’s world.

From emotional regulation to modeling relationships, this conversation dives into what it really means to raise daughters — and how the process transforms you as a man.

You’ll hear insights on:

• The weight of being your daughter’s first example of a man
• How everyday interactions shape her expectations of relationships
• Why ego can get in the way of growth as a father
• The importance of repair, patience, and intentional presence
• How to shift from reacting to responding in high-emotion moments

This episode is a reminder:

You don’t have to be perfect.
But you do have to be intentional

In this episode of The Daughtered Podcast, I sit down with Chip Scholz, a leadership coach, author of "Small Decisions Big Shifts" & "Every Dog Has Its Day", woodworker, and father of three daughters, for a powerful conversation on fatherhood, leadership, and the quiet weight of being a dad.

Chip shares his unique journey into fatherhood, stepping in as a dad to three young girls after their biological father disappeared, and what it taught him about earning influence, not just holding authority.

We dive into:
• The difference between authority and real leadership
• Raising daughters through every stage of life
• Why dads struggle with imposter syndrome
• “Not forcing the cut” in fatherhood and leadership
• Small daily decisions that create big life shifts
• Building family values, purpose, and intentional legacy
• The tension between career success and being present at home

This conversation is full of hard-earned wisdom for fathers trying to lead better, love deeper, and show up stronger for their families.

What does it really mean to show up as a father of daughters?

In this episode of The Daughtered Podcast, I sit down with Yusef Marshall—host of One on One with Mr. Yu, certified high-performance coach, leadership coach, minister, speaker, and proud father of three daughters, to dive deep into fatherhood, legacy, and what it takes to raise strong, confident daughters in today’s world.

Yusef brings over 25 years of coaching, leadership, and life experience to this conversation, but more importantly, he brings the perspective of a man who has walked the road of raising daughters into adulthood... and now into grandchildren and even great-grandchildren.

We talk about the biggest mistakes fathers make with daughters, why many men take a passive role in parenting girls, how fathers shape the standard their daughters will one day look for in relationships, and why being present matters far more than simply being a provider.

This is a real conversation about growth, responsibility, and becoming the kind of man your daughters need.

If you're a father trying to become stronger, more mindful, and more present—this episode is for you.

Breaking generational trauma as a father starts with the courage to face what you’ve been avoiding.

In this deeply honest episode of The Daughtered Podcast, Oscar sits down with Jennifer Chase, founder of Rise Addiction Life Coaching, whose story spans generations of trauma, addiction, healing, and family restoration. 

Jennifer opens up about growing up in a home marked by alcoholism and abuse, her own battle with opioid addiction after brain surgery, and the heartbreaking moment she realized addiction had impacted her son as well. Together, she and Oscar unpack what fathers need to understand about the hidden ways pain, silence, enabling, and unspoken family wounds get passed down. 

This conversation is ultimately about courage—the courage to face the “ball of yarn” of unresolved pain, choose discomfort over denial, and model healing, vulnerability, and connection for our children.

In this episode:

• How addiction and trauma become generational
• Why fathers must remove shame and talk about the “elephant in the room”
• The danger of silence, enabling, and emotional isolation
• Why vulnerability is one of the strongest things a dad can model
• How healing yourself changes your daughter’s future
• Why connection is the true opposite of addiction

If you’re a dad carrying pain, patterns, or habits you know need to stop with you—this episode is for you.
