Episode #909

Do your past experiences shape your current patterns?

In this episode, Doug is joined by Chris for a raw conversation about how trauma and ingrained behaviors impact our relationships, especially in marriage. Together, they explore why men often struggle to let go of past pain, the cultural pressures to suppress emotions, and how these unresolved issues can resurface in harmful ways.

You'll learn practical steps to identify patterns that no longer serve you, the importance of solitude for self-awareness, and why surrounding yourself with the right people can accelerate your growth. They also discuss tools to approach difficult conversations and the generational ripple effect of addressing (or ignoring) trauma.

This isn't about quick fixes—it's about real work for lasting change. Tune in and take the first step toward breaking free.
