Revisit: Why Marriages Break Down

Episode #253 We live in a society where we're taught that money can solve everything. As a man, we think that we need to make more money to keep our marriage or relationship going. We become addicted to work because we always feel that the money we’re making is not enough. So, we grind even more...leaving us never satisfied. When we’re too focused on making money, we forget to switch off and end up working even more when we get home. We tend to forget our other responsibilities to our partner, which creates a gap in the relationship. The marriage then begins to break because the man loses himself along the way. He identifies himself as a businessman or business owner and that becomes his identity. Since he thinks that it’s his identity, it is difficult for him to switch off. The gap in the relationship becomes bigger and bigger until you don’t know your wife anymore...you don't even know yourself. In this episode, we talk about how to switch off from work, reclaim your identity, and know who you really are. We also talk about the importance of knowing who your wife is, not the woman you married but who she is becoming in the relationship. ————- Hungry for more?

Revisit: Are You Making Your Lover Your Mother?

Episode #252 Every man wants to be the king of the household. In return, they expect passion and intense desire from their partner. A woman, on the other hand, wants a man in her life but if her partner expects her to pick up his clothes for him & do all the chores at home alone, then the energy she has will be quickly consumed. She will have little time or energy to spend as 'husband and wife'. In this cycle, she will get tired of doing the things that a mother typically does for her son. And THIS is when the dynamic of the relationship starts to change from 'husband and wife' to 'mother and son'. Men often don’t realize this because they have this sense of entitlement in being the one making the money, and their energy is being consumed at work. So to them…picking up their clothes from the floor is not worth their time. If this cycle continues, their partner will lose their desire completely and will start to look outside of her marriage to fulfill that desire. Doing the basics around the house doesn’t mean giving in. You are acting as a leader, an adult, and as a man. Do some helpful things for the people you love and give the feminine energy the freedom to thrive. Be that king who makes his castle as clean as possible. ————- Hungry for more?

What If Your Wife Wasn't A B*tch

Episode #249 What if your wife wasn’t a bitch? Your partner was given to you because she is the teacher of your greatest lessons, protecting you from your greatest fears, anxieties, and those things that trigger you so often. And you are there to learn from each other. In partnership, we attract a woman who is meant to invite us and teach us to be the man that we are capable of being, or we are destined to be in many ways. When you go through this situation with your wife and you choose to see her as a bitch, you should realize that you need to work on yourself so that you can see it differently. It is easy for us humans to put our blame on other people...especially on the person closest to us...but the root of the problem sometimes is inside of you. Instead of wishing for your wife to be easier or instead of wishing that you have married an easier woman, you should focus on how you can be better. You should face the challenges the woman might be presenting to you with playfulness and confidence. Most of the time, women test you to see how solid and secure they are with you. She is pointing out opportunities for you to grow. Look at yourself and start to inquire about what it is within you that has been triggered right now, and what is the opportunity you have to learn and grow. It's all about taking complete ownership so that you can be a better man. When you see it as an opportunity rather than a problem, it becomes something fun to do. ————- Hungry for more?

Why Men Don't Share When They're Stuck & What To Do About It

Episode #244 Why don't men seek help when they're stuck? Men are taught to be a certain kind of leader...to be a man who doesn't cry and who doesn't show vulnerability. But for men, being stuck is a sign of weakness. Rather than seeing that as weak, think of it as a sign of strength. By talking about it and accepting it, you demonstrate that you don't care about the weakness. Live a transparent life so that no one can point a finger at you, because you have already admitted, accepted, and spoken on all of the things that you have been most ashamed of in the past. Own the 'negativity' about yourself, and own it with pride. In this episode, we are going to talk about what area men usually get stuck in, and what to do about it. ————- Hungry for more?
