EP154: Resolving persistent arguments, calling your partner forward to do the work and weathering your woman's storms Featuring Brian Jenkins

1 hour 26 minutes

Brian Jenkins’ work broadly started about five years ago, just after he and his wife had two weddings for both sides of the family. Then Brian found himself really doing a lot, trying to prove himself as a husband. A little before the wedding, he had another ambitious project that he was putting a lot of effort into, and after coming back from his honeymoon, he felt really exhausted and burned out. That spiralled into depression, self-loathing and pushed him straight into survival mode. Brian recognised that he was in bad shape. There were very few moments where he felt happy. Everything felt like a struggle for him. That was the part where he knew something had to change.

That sent him off on a journey to self-discovery. After getting into his first men's space, he found a coach and mentor. He had to face a lot of things and reconcile different visions he had about his life - Career, Financial, Personal, and Relational. But the thing that rocked his world and vision of becoming a father was when he received the news that he and his wife couldn’t have kids.
