Episode #388 What does life look like after a divorce? The activated male is a natural alpha leader. A lot of men are coming to the Activation Method to save their marriage - or at least make their marriage better.

Episode #387 Does your wife hate you? How can you turn that look of hate and disgust into a look of admiration, respect, and desire? When a woman says that she hates her husband, what she is saying is she hates the version of her husband that's showing up. She doesn't hate the guy himself, she just doesn't like the person he's showing her. She doesn't hate you, but she's sick and tired of who you've let yourself become - this lesser version of yourself. A lot of men lose their dreams, desires, energy, and the bravado that they had along the way. Things start to slide - they start doing less, drinking more, and the fire within them starts to die. Over time, his wife will start to do the same thing. And she'll resent that within herself. A lot of guys will try to gain back their wife's love and respect by doing good things...by being a good guy, and by being a good husband. However, they're usually doing this strictly for validation - which makes them an even lesser version of themselves. Thus, she loses even more respect - and she hates him for that. In this episode, we're talking about some of the causes of divorce, why your wife might hate you, and what you can do when you find yourself in this kind of situation. __________ Hungry for more?

Episode #386 How can you stop seeking validation? What can we do as men to break this cycle? Often, you're telling your wife about all your projects or accomplishments because you want her to validate you. When we go on with this quest for validation, we're giving up our power to our partner. Bu constantly seeking validation from your wife, you become needy, she becomes turned off, and your relationship goes down a dangerous road. You need to make a big shift and start making changes in yourself. When she starts noticing positive changes - and you're not talking about it all the time - it will be more alluring and sexy to her. Be a better version of yourself and act as if you don't know it.  Not seeking the admiration of the people around makes you more attractive naturally. The signal that we send to our partner is that we are a solid man on a mission. We are on our path and we are unshakeable. In this episode, we are going to talk about the idea of validation, why we need to stop looking for validation, and what can we do to break this cycle. __________ Hungry for more?
