A lot of men struggle with the realization that they don’t actually have full control over how life or their marriage turns out.
You can do everything “right”—be faithful, provide, stay fit, treat her well—and still end up rejected, divorced, or alone.
In this episode, I talk about why that happens, and why it’s not a sign that you failed. Life isn’t fair… and that includes relationships. I also share a real message from a man dealing with a sexless, disconnected marriage due to his wife’s ADHD and perimenopause, and we unpack what’s really going on beneath the surface.
If this hits close to home, you’re not alone.
