D.E.M.O. with Mo
I’m Monique Simmons, host of D.E.M.O. with Mo. I’ve been married to my husband Corey for 15 years, and together we’re raising two amazing kids while adjusting to the new season of having a young adult son. I created this podcast to give people a real, honest place to talk about relationships — the good, the hard, and the things I wish I’d known in my early years. I’m not here as an expert, just a Christian woman learning and growing every day. We’re all figuring out this thing called life together.

Navigating the Emotional Challenges of Father's Day: Healing, Coping, and Finding Comfort

When Father's Day rolls around, do you find yourself feeling more sadness than joy? If so, you're not alone. In this heartfelt episode, I open up about my own experiences with the emotional challenges of Father's Day, and provide practical ways to heal and find comfort during this sensitive time.

Our discussion begins by honoring the amazing fathers out there, like my husband, who show up and provide for their families despite the challenges they face. But we also acknowledge that Father's Day can be a painful reminder of grief, loss, or complicated relationships. From processing the emotions that come with a changed relationship to our fathers, to setting healthy boundaries with those who may trigger difficult feelings, we explore a range of coping strategies to help you find solace on this complicated day.

Lastly, we share a powerful reminder for those struggling with their own fatherhood journey, or those who have never met their fathers: you are not broken, you are worthy of love, and there is nothing wrong with you. Join us as we navigate the complexities of Father's Day, offering support, compassion, and hope for those who may be struggling.
