19 – How to stop yelling at kids?
Dasha Savage · Psychology for Women
Today’s episode is based again on a letter from our listener. She writes about feeling completely exhausted, on edge, and unable to control her emotions anymore.

In this episode, we’ll talk about what’s really going on, where this anger is coming from, and what can help her start to find a way out of this state. *** Follow for more episodes on relationship dynamics, healing the father wound, and learning to live from self-worth, not...

11 – Daddy issues?
Dasha Savage · Psychology for Women
In this episode, we explore the deep and often unnoticed impact the father figure has on our inner development and the choices we make later in life. Even when a father was physically present but emotionally distant or cold, the imprint of that relationship can remain hidden until adulthood. We look at how early experiences with a father shape our self-esteem, sense of safety, and ability to form close relationships. Why do so many women choose partners whose behavior unconsciously mirrors familiar traits of their fathers, even when those choices bring pain? Why do men who grew up with absent...

10 – Before You Burn Out Completely
Dasha Savage · Psychology for Women
What does it actually mean to feel resourced, and how do we find our way back when we’ve drifted far from that place? In today’s gentle and personal episode, I’m sharing one of my favorite concepts from Russian: “being in your resource.” It’s that grounded, steady inner state that helps you meet life’s chaos without being consumed by it. We’ll explore the two kinds of resource: Global resource: the big-picture safety nets that hold you Local resource: the small, daily rituals that either drain or restore you I’ll also walk you through a simple mindfulness...
info_outlineIn this episode, we explore the “Heroic Woman” relationship pattern—one where love is earned through struggle, sacrifice, and saving others. Behind her strength, resilience, and endless capacity to hold others together, there’s often a childhood marked by emotional distance from a father figure.
We talk about the origins of this script, how it plays out in adult relationships with unavailable or troubled partners, and why peaceful, healthy love can feel unfamiliar or even boring. You’ll learn:
- Why strong, capable women often feel drawn to partners who need saving
- How this dynamic connects to early emotional experiences with a distant or unavailable father
- The psychological cost of always being the rescuer
- What healing looks like when a woman finally starts choosing herself
This episode is for every woman who’s ever asked:
“Why do I always have to be the strong one?”
and
“What would it look like to live for me, not just for others?”
