EP15: A Midlife Father’s Take on Raising 7 Girls With Faith, Love & Family
A father’s presence shapes a daughter’s world in ways that last a lifetime. But as a father, what does it mean to show up, to listen, and to guide without overstepping?
In this episode, I sit down with Justin Goshgarian, a father of seven daughters, for an honest conversation about the challenges and rewards of fatherhood. We talk about what it takes to raise strong, independent women, the shift from protector to trusted advisor, and why sometimes the best thing a father can do is simply listen.
Justin shares his experiences navigating different personalities under one roof and how faith has shaped his parenting. This conversation is a heartfelt look at the role we play in shaping our daughters’ confidence, choices, and future relationships.
Quotes
“I’ve always said the first man in a daughter’s life is her father.” (8:08 | Scott Asmar)
“Listen to your daughters and don’t try to fix it. Just listen, and honestly, that would be it. And just let your daughters know that you’ll be a sounding board. And when they want help, they will absolutely tell you.” (17:27 | Justin Goshgarian)
“Those moments where you listen, you encourage, you pray—that does a lot for them. That’s all they really needed was just that encouragement, that time. Because when you’re in a low spot, it kind of picks you up, gives you that gumption to keep going.” (19:10 | Justin Goshgarian)
“One thing I've done with all the girls is I've always given them a promise ring. For me, that promise ring means that there's always a reminder of your value and the value that I see in you, the value that God sees in you. And that, I'm always going to be there for you and always be that reminder for you.” (20:53 | Justin Goshgarian)
