I had the opportunity to sit down with Lauren Gaskill of the Finding Joy Podcast. In this episode we discuss how to grieve and heal from the scars and wounds our earthly fathers inflict on us, relying on God’s strength to help us forgive others and strategies for substituting the lies that tear us down with God’s truth that build us up.

Kia Stephens is passionate about helping women who lacked the emotional love and support of their fathers. As a child of divorced parents she knows the damaging impact growing up without a father can have on a woman. Kia candidly shares her story as source of encouragement for others. If you missed the love and affirmation of your father due to death, abuse, abandonment, divorce, or you never knew him THERE IS HOPE. God can and will fill the voids within your soul. Kia has experienced this first hand and today she attributes God's AMAZING grace for enabling her to forgive and love her dad. For this reason, she created The Father Swap blog to be a source of encouragement, healing, and practical wisdom for women dealing with the effects of a physically or emotionally absent father.
