Female Dads is a candid, comedic, and empowering podcast hosted by comedians & actresses Jessica Keenan and Heather Pasternak that redefines what motherhood can look like when women embrace their own version of “dad energy.”
In a world that often criticizes, pressures, and undervalues moms, Female Dads offers a refreshing perspective on parenting—one that celebrates being carefree, cool, fun, imperfect, and unapologetically yourself. Through honest conversations with special guests, Jessica and Heather explore the realities of modern motherhood while sharing their own parenting wins, spectacular fails, unexpected lessons, and laugh-out-loud experiences along the way.
From embracing “dad energy” and finding freedom in the chaos to celebrating the little victories and laughing through the inevitable mistakes, Female Dads creates a space where moms can let go of perfection and enjoy the journey. At its heart, the podcast is about giving mothers permission to have fun, be honest, and occasionally neglect their children for an hour a week—because, really, isn’t that feminism?
Funny, fearless, and refreshingly unfiltered, Female Dads invites listeners to laugh, learn, and embrace a more carefree approach to motherhood. Whether you’re a seasoned parent, expecting your first child, or simply curious about the beautifully chaotic world of raising kids, each episode offers an honest and entertaining introduction to the fun, unpredictable journey ahead.
On this episode, Jessica Keenan and Heather Pasternak talk about why sometimes it’s not what you say, it’s how you say it.
From keeping your tone in check during everyday conversations to sharing some real world budgeting tips, the Female Dads cover a little bit of everything. They also discuss finding help with your kids, wonder if feet pics could actually be a viable side hustle, and take a peek inside their purses to reveal what they’re carrying around all day. As always, it’s an honest, funny, and relatable conversation about motherhood, marriage, and surviving the chaos of family life.
