145: Why Men Struggle in Silence // Transformation vs Willpower: The Key to Lasting Change

In this powerful episode of the Brave Co. Podcast, I sit down with Chris Cook, pastor, coach, and author of Healing What You Can’t Erase. Together, we dive deep into the challenges men face in today’s culture, where masculinity is often shamed, and emotional health is overlooked. Chris shares his deeply personal story of overcoming profound loss, trauma, and the mental toll of carrying a broken spirit for years.

We unpack why transformation outperforms willpower and explore the critical role of community and surrender in true healing. This episode is for any man ready to confront hidden shame, embrace vulnerability, and step into the freedom that comes from a renewed spirit. If you’ve ever felt stuck in cycles of pain or burdened by unspoken struggles, this conversation offers hope, practical steps, and a reminder that healing is possible.

Stay tuned for practical tools, thought-provoking insights, and encouragement to walk the path of transformation. Don’t miss this opportunity to grow stronger as a man and reclaim the life you were meant to live.
