Are men more misunderstood than ever, and does anyone actually care about what they’re going through?

In this episode of Sharing My Truth, Mel and Suzie sit down with Coral Osborne, who works closely with men around relationships, intimacy, confidence, and connection, to talk about what she’s seeing behind closed doors.

Men are constantly told they need to communicate more, be more emotionally available, and understand women better. But who is trying to understand them?

We get into why so many men feel unheard in modern relationships, the pressures and expectations placed on men, what women may be getting wrong about what men actually need, and why the conversation around relationships can sometimes feel very one-sided.

Coral also shares what she has learned from working directly with men, including the things they struggle to say out loud and what they really want from their relationships with women.

Is modern dating failing men? Are women really listening to what men are saying? And have we become so focused on what women need from relationships that we’ve stopped asking what men need too?

🔥 This is a conversation that might challenge what you think you know about men.

How much of who you are is really you, and how much is the person you think you're supposed to be?

In this episode, we sit down with Dave Rossi, author, speaker, and founder of Omega, to talk about the pressure men feel to perform, achieve, appear strong, and live up to an image of what a man should be.

Dave spent much of his life succeeding at a game he says he never chose to play. From the outside, he was achieving, but underneath it, he felt increasingly disconnected from who he really was. That experience ultimately led him to question the expectations he'd built his life around and find a different way of living.

We talk about modern masculinity, identity, success, relationships, and authenticity and what happens when men spend so much time trying to meet other people's expectations that they lose sight of themselves.

What does it actually mean to "be yourself"? Can you be successful without constantly performing? And how do you figure out who you really are when you've spent years becoming who you thought you were supposed to be?

It's a thought-provoking conversation about masculinity, the masks we wear, and what can happen when you finally take them off.

A 55-year-old married man writes in with a dilemma: he loves his wife, doesn’t want to hurt her, and says they have a good life together. But the sex and intimacy have disappeared, and he’s been getting that part of his life elsewhere.

Now he doesn’t know what to do. He doesn’t want to hurt his wife, but he knows something has to change. Does he stay because after all these years he owes it to her and the life they’ve built together? Does he admit he’s been cheating, knowing the truth could devastate her? Or does he leave, even though he still loves her?

He doesn’t want another relationship or to replace his wife. But he also doesn’t want to accept a life without sex, affection, or feeling desired.

Is cheating ever understandable when intimacy has disappeared from a marriage? Is keeping the secret actually protecting his wife or protecting himself? And can you genuinely love someone while repeatedly cheating on them?

In this episode, Mel and Suzie get into love, sex, loyalty, infidelity, and what we really owe someone after decades together.

Stay, confess, or leave. What would you tell him to do?

Kit primarily coaches women, and part of his approach is helping them look at dating more realistically. Are your expectations matching the kind of relationship you want? Are you confusing sexual attraction with relationship interest? And are men and women actually looking for the same things in each other?

We talk about why women can sometimes use sex to gain access to men who are happy to date or sleep with them but would not necessarily choose them for a committed relationship. Kit explains why this can create a false sense of your dating options, particularly when sexual interest is mistaken for genuine relationship potential.

We also explore what men look for when choosing a partner, what women look for in men, unrealistic dating expectations, attraction versus compatibility, and why simply waiting for the perfect person to turn up may not be working.

It’s a frank conversation about the men women want versus the women men want, and what both sides might need to understand if they actually want a successful relationship.

Modern dating has changed, but are men and women still waiting for each other to make the first move?

In Part 1 of our conversation with dating coach Kit  @stayslickwithkit, we explore what’s happening between men and women today, why dating has become so difficult, and what women can do differently if they want to attract the kind of man they’re actually looking for.

Kit primarily coaches women, helping them understand men, attraction, and how to create the opportunity for the right relationship to develop. One of his core ideas is women need to make the first "feminine move". As Kit puts it, masculinity pursues; femininity invites.

If you want a man to approach you, pursue you, or ask you out, you have to give him something to respond to. A look, a smile, a conversation, a signal of interest. Nobody is coming if you do nothing.

We talk about the growing disconnect between men and women, Gen Z and dating, masculine and feminine dynamics, why some men are increasingly hesitant to approach women, what attraction looks like today, and how women can make the “first feminine move” while still allowing a man to pursue.

Is modern dating really broken, or have men and women simply forgotten how to signal that they want each other?

Modern dating has never been more complicated. Men and women seem to be further apart than ever, dating apps are leaving people frustrated, and conversations about attraction, relationships, and expectations have become increasingly divided.

In this episode, we're joined by Stirling Cooper, intimacy coach, former award-winning adult film star, and former high-class male escort, for an honest conversation about what's really happening between men and women today.

After a career that gave him a unique perspective on sex, attraction, and relationships, Stirling retired from the adult industry in 2020. He now uses those experiences to help men and women build confidence, improve intimacy, and develop healthier, more fulfilling relationships.

We discuss the impact of pornography on relationships and intimacy, why so many men are feeling angry and disconnected, the mistakes men make when trying to attract women, and the behaviors that may be pushing potential partners away. We also explore what women can do to become more attractive to the right men, why genuine connection has become so difficult, and whether meeting people in real life is still possible in today's dating world.

Whether you agree with Stirling or not, this conversation will challenge your assumptions and get you thinking about modern relationships from a different perspective.

We hear the same message over an over again: more women are choosing to stay single, and many say they're happier than ever.

One of our listeners wrote in to tell us we were completely wrong. She believes we're unfairly suggesting that single women can't be happy, and she wanted to set the record straight.

So, is being single really the key to happiness for some women? Are the headlines and social media conversations telling the whole story? Or is there a difference between being content on your own and genuinely wanting to stay single long term?

In this episode, Mel and Suzie read her message and dive into one of the biggest debates in modern dating. They discuss why more women are choosing single life, whether happiness and relationships are being framed as opposites, how expectations around marriage and independence have changed, and why this conversation sparks such strong reactions from both men and women.

Can someone be genuinely happy without a relationship? Is there pressure to claim you're happier single than you really are? And why has this become such a controversial topic?

For generations, the rule seemed simple: the man pays on the first date. But in a world of equality, changing gender roles, and rising dating costs, does that rule still apply?

Should men still pick up the check? Do women expect it, appreciate it, or see it as outdated? And when a woman reaches for her purse and offers to split the bill, does she actually mean it, or is she secretly hoping he'll insist on paying?

In this episode, Mel and Suzie tackle one of modern dating's most debated questions. They discuss what men and women really think about paying on the first date, whether the person who asks should pay, and how money, effort, and expectations shape attraction from the very beginning.

They also explore whether refusing a woman's offer to split the bill is chivalrous or patronizing, whether going Dutch kills romance, and why this seemingly simple moment can reveal so much about values, intentions, and compatibility.

So what's the right answer?

Pay, split, alternate, or run for the exit when the bill arrives?

Join the debate.
