Episode Synopsis

Send us a textIn this episode of the Be Better podcast, I talk about one of the most confronting truths for married men: you’re not losing intimacy because your wife doesn’t desire you – you’re losing intimacy because you’re too scared to ask what’s actually going on.After coaching almost 500 men out of Nice Guy syndrome and into grounded, present, connected masculinity, I see the same pattern: instead of asking direct questions, men guess, overthink, double down on being “nice,” and quietly resent their wife when the sex and connection dry up. I share a real situation from my own marriage where every time I tried to initiate in bed, my wife would pull away. My ego spiralled: Is she not attracted to me? Is this our future? The breakthrough only came when I finally faced the discomfort and asked her directly what was going on.In this episode, I walk you through the exact conversation, the ego sting that followed, and the simple but powerful shift from taking it personally to understanding it as a matter of preference and communication, not worth or desirability. You’ll learn how to have these conversations without blame, how to ask your partner what she actually wants, how to clearly express your own needs (including sex, not hiding behind the word “intimacy”), and how direct, grounded communication can instantly reduce anxiety, rebuild desire, and deepen connection in your marriage.If you’ve been silently suffering, feeling rejected, or stuck in your head about why your sex life isn’t where you want it to be, this episode will give you the language, structure, and courage to finally talk about it like a grounded man.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
