Why do relationships feel so hard for men?

So many men believe relationships are confusing, emotionally overwhelming, or simply "not for them." They assume women are too complicated, that communication is impossible, or that long-term commitment goes against male nature.

In this episode, David Chambers dismantles those myths and names the real issue most men have never been taught to see: emotional capacity.

Drawing on personal experience, client stories, and relationship science, David explains why men shut down, withdraw, become defensive, or feel overwhelmed in intimacy and conflict. He shows why most relationship advice fails men, why "just communicate better" is often useless, and what actually builds the ability to stay present, grounded, and connected when emotions run high.

This is a practical, compassionate, and deeply clarifying episode for men who want calmer, healthier, more connected relationships without losing themselves in the process.
