The way you see yourself is shaping the way you show up in your marriage—whether you realize it or not.

Most men are taught to base their self-worth on performance, possessions, or the approval of others. But when your self-esteem is built on shaky foundations, it creates insecurity, defensiveness, and disconnection in your relationship.

In this episode, I’ll show you the three faulty self-esteem patterns that keep men stuck—and how to start building real, relational self-esteem that brings strength, steadiness, and deeper connection to your marriage.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

āœ… The three faulty beliefs that sabotage a man’s confidence and marriage
āœ… How performance, possessions, and approval become unhealthy measures of self-worth
āœ… Why men often hold their wives to the same harsh standards they hold themselves
āœ… The truth about relational self-esteem (and how it changes everything)
āœ… Simple daily practices to build grounded confidence and emotional presence

Key Takeaways:

šŸ’” The way you see yourself affects how you see your wife.
šŸ’” You don’t have to earn your worth—you just have to own it.
šŸ’” Real self-esteem leads to more patience, connection, and trust in your marriage.

Practical Action Steps:

1ļøāƒ£ Identify which faulty self-esteem pattern you fall into (performance, possessions, or approval).
2ļøāƒ£ Practice separating your self-worth from what you do, have, or how others see you.
3ļøāƒ£ Try one of the at-home reflection exercises shared in the episode.
4ļøāƒ£ Catch yourself in moments of judgment—toward yourself or your wife—and choose grace instead.
5ļøāƒ£ Repeat the affirmation: ā€œI am worthy, just as I am.ā€

Reflection Questions:

ā“ What’s been the foundation of your self-worth—and is it working for you?
ā“ How do your self-esteem patterns impact the way you treat your wife?
ā“ What would change in your marriage if you started standing in your value?
