Stop Defending Yourself. Start Understanding Her. l EP. 104 l 16.07.2026 35minSend us Fan Mail If your marriage feels like a Rubik's Cube you can't quite solve, this is the episode that changes that. I break down why getting defensive was never really about the thing your wife brought up, the missed call, the forgotten shopping, the thing you said you'd do. It's about a protective part of you trying to make sure you're never wrong, because somewhere back in childhood being wrong meant being punished or losing love. Every time you protect that part, you're choosing it o... -
What If Fixing Your Marriage Isn't Even The Goal? l EP. 103 l 08.07.2026 40minSend us Fan Mail Most people treat "nice guy" like a life sentence. Even the guy who coined the term still calls himself a recovering nice guy. I reject that completely. Being a nice guy isn't one trait you manage forever. It's a handful of protective parts that formed for a reason, usually somewhere back in childhood, and once you see it that way you can actually work with each one instead of trying to overcorrect into the opposite extreme and becoming an arsehole about it. In this episode I... -

He explores how protective patterns like defensi... -

The Story You're Telling Yourself Is Keeping You Stuck l EP. 96 l 09.06.2026 36minSend us Fan Mail The stories you tell yourself determine the life you live. Your marriage. Your confidence. Your reactions. Your relationship with your wife. Your relationship with your kids. In this episode, I break down how the stories, labels, and beliefs you've attached to yourself and others may be the very thing keeping you stuck. Most men don't suffer because of reality.
