Most people think being a "nice guy" means being kind, generous, and easy to get along with.

Dr. Robert Glover sees it differently.

In this episode of Everything They Don't Tell You, Josh sits down with Dr. Robert Glover, author of No More Mr. Nice Guy, to unpack the hidden patterns behind approval-seeking, people-pleasing, covert contracts, shame, anxiety, resentment, and dishonesty.

This conversation goes way beyond relationships.

Dr. Glover explains how "nice guy" patterns show up in business, leadership, marriage, sex, decision-making, conflict, and personal ambition. For founders, leaders, and high-performers, the real danger is not that being nice makes you weak. It's that being nice can become a mask for fear, avoidance, manipulation, and unspoken expectations.

Josh and Dr. Glover get into why relationships are not supposed to be easy, why honesty solves more than hiding ever will, why "good at being good" is not the same as being great, and how men can stop living from covert contracts and start living with truth, confidence, and responsibility.
