Better Call Daddy

61. Surprise, You've Got Siblings! Kate Fernandez

I have a brother?  And a sister? Anything else you'd like to tell me?  Imagine finding out at 18, you have two siblings?  And your parents had abandoned them?  And the siblings knew about you all along?  Any family secrets you've discovered later in life?  Do you speak the same language as your parents?
Kate's father and grandfather were both political prisoners in Cuba.  Her father could either go to the US or Spain.  Her mother was in Spain working as a nurse.  They ended up being roommates.  Amnesty led her parents to the good old US of A.
We talk about Kate's childhood memories, suppressing those memories,  being an only child, resentment, mental health, sobriety, suicide attempt, trauma bonding, and being dumped by a friend.
This episode is life-changing!  Stay tuned to the Better Call Daddy Show: The Safe Space for Controversy.

Reena loves a story, and she‘s fascinated by the people behind them. She loves to bring stories to life. Her appetite for storytelling has taken her from the Jerry Springer Show to the legal drama of the courtroom. From influential players to reality stars, nothing is censored here. Reena interviews people whose stories haven‘t been told, at least not through her unique lens, and then gets daddy‘s advice afterward like a good daughter does.
Whether you have daddy issues or a father who‘s inspired your path, you will be able to tap into my daddy‘s wisdom, wit, and humor at the end of every episode.  My daddy has been a guiding light my whole life and there‘s not much he doesn‘t know, as an entrepreneur for forty-plus years, a husband, a loyal son, and my number one supporter.  He has learned lots of life lessons along the way and is here to share them with you.  It‘s time to reminisce and reflect on the conversations you‘d like to have with your daddy and learn from mine.  Come share in some good old-fashioned family bonding and help us up our wisdom rating.  There is wisdom from four generations and I’m addressing what happens from childhood to adulthood!
