Episode #904 Do you find yourself constantly looking for approval from your wife, partner, or even co-workers? How does this impact your confidence and your relationships?

In this episode, Doug and Mark break down the deeply ingrained habits many men have around seeking validation—especially from women. They explore the reasons behind this behavior, including childhood influences, societal conditioning, and the lack of true self-awareness.

You'll learn actionable steps to:

  • Build inner confidence and self-validation.
  • Create emotional safety in your relationships.
  • Understand the transformative power of grounded masculinity.
  • Develop practices that connect you to your authentic self.

Mark also shares personal stories and expert coaching tips to help you stop looking outward for affirmation and start building a foundation of self-trust and inner strength.
