Episode Synopsis

Send us a textMost men don’t avoid conflict because they’re weak. They avoid it because they don’t know how to stay grounded when emotions rise.In this episode, I break down the critical difference between nice guy avoidance and grounded masculine leadership—and why swinging the pendulum toward “confront everything” is just as destructive.Nice guys suppress their needs, justify, over-explain, or shut down to keep the peace. And over time, that teaches their partner one dangerous thing: he can’t handle the truth.I explain:Why avoiding conflict isn’t the real issue—it’s why you’re avoiding itHow justification and explanation quietly destroy trust and attractionThe difference between holding space and becoming a punching bagWhen to stay present… and when to set a clear boundaryHow grounded men “pre-handle” conflict so it doesn’t pile up under the surfaceThis episode will challenge how you think about arguments, emotional safety, leadership, and boundaries in your marriage. If you want respect, desire, and connection without walking on eggshells—or blowing things up—this conversation matters.Want short impactful emails to help you shift & evolve delivered right to your inbox? Join the 90 sec email club HERELooking to fast track your growth with personalised support or a guided system to help you evolve out of the nice guy, rebuild your energy, presence, intimacy & become the grounded masculine man you are capable of, apply below. Apply HERE
