Let’s talk about a silent killer in marriages that no one likes to admit: neediness.

In today’s episode, I sit down with the #1 Black Belt Husband coach, Lucas Bell to unpack how neediness destroys masculine leadership, and slowly drains the attraction and connection out of your relationship.

We’re not talking about basic emotional needs. We’re talking about anxiety-driven energy that chases, clings, and demands emotional reassurance… all under the disguise of “just wanting to feel close.”

Here’s what we dive into:

• Why neediness is almost always rooted in anxious attachment
• How this panic to close the emotional gap usually pushes your spouse further away
• What it looks like when your emotional state becomes your partner’s burden
• Why strong marriages are built on leadership, not emotional overdependence
• And how to shift from insecure energy to calm, grounded presence

If you’ve ever felt like your need for connection is too much, or like you’re trying harder than your wife to fix things, this episode is for you.
