Episode #1065

If you've ever felt like you're repeating the same arguments, blowing up or shutting down in your relationship, or avoiding the real conversations that need to happen, this episode will hit home.

Doug and Coach Chris talk honestly about how trauma from your past shapes how you show up today. Not in a therapy-session kind of way, but in the real-life stuff—how you react when you're triggered, how you protect yourself, and how easy it is to blame everything on your wife or your situation.

They share personal stories about the patterns that used to run their lives and how they started doing the work to shift them. It's not about being perfect or "fixing" yourself—it's about taking responsibility and learning to lead.

This is a real conversation about emotional armor, getting triggered, and why most men wait until it's too late. If you're tired of surface-level advice, this is where you start getting honest.
