Every man carries expectations from childhood, especially expectations about the people who were supposed to protect, guide, and show up for him. When those expectations aren’t met, something forms inside us. Sometimes it’s anger. Sometimes distance. Sometimes silence.

Many men learned early that disappointment equals weakness, so instead of processing the hurt, they armored up.

But underneath most anger is something else: grief, sadness, abandonment, or longing.

This conversation invites men to examine the moment they felt let down as a child, how that disappointment shaped their relationships, and how forgiveness and emotional honesty can begin to restore what anger has been guarding.

Welcome to another episode of the Table of Courage. This week we kick off a series called Wounds from our Fathers. In this next hour we discuss the Silence Between Us.
