In this episode of The Fallible Man podcast, host Brent addresses the difficult realities and challenges that many men face in their marriages. He candidly discusses the common tendency to become complacent and 'phone it in' rather than being actively and intentionally engaged in the relationship. Brent shares personal anecdotes from his 23 years of marriage and introduces a new, actionable 'punch list' of daily, weekly, and monthly tasks designed to improve marital connection and commitment. This episode offers practical advice for men who are serious about nurturing their marriages, emphasizing the importance of intentionality, communication, and ongoing effort. Brent underscores that while balancing family, career, and personal duties is tough, prioritizing one’s marriage is crucial for lifelong partnership and happiness. --Chapters--00:00 Introduction: Facing Hard Truths in Marriage01:31 The Reality of Married Life03:13 Common Struggles in Marriage04:08 Health Check: Questions to Reflect On07:51 The Punch List08:29 Daily, Weekly, and Monthly Commitments14:18 Final Thoughts and EncouragementYour Next EpisodeBlueprint for Love: 26 Topics to Discuss Before Marriagehttps://www.thefalliblemanpodcast.com/blueprint-for-love-26-topics-to-discuss-before-marriage/Join our Bi-Weekly Mailing List and Receive our "Foundations of Change" Ebook - https://mailchi.mp/thefallibleman/2y3lp1to1eKaizan Men’s Personal DevelopmentAre you striving for personal and professional growth?
