In this heartfelt episode of The Way Back, Robby shares how his struggles with social anxiety and poor communication in his dark days passed “monkeys” like fear of crowds to his kids and strained his marriage.

Using the powerful oxygen mask analogy, he reveals why taking care of your mental health first—through faith, mindfulness, and honest self-awareness—is the key to breaking generational cycles.

Packed with practical tips, like a one-minute mindfulness practice and Barbara Fredrickson’s 3:1 positivity ratio, this episode inspires men, women, young, and old to own their issues and show up for those they love.
