Why Do I Feel Weak or Broken for Needing Support? Part 4 – Why Her Pain Doesn’t Mean You’re Failing


Listen Later

Is your wife overwhelmed, frustrated, and constantly emotionally charged—and you’re left wondering, “How is this all my fault again?”

In Part 4 of this vulnerable and vital series, we explore the weight men feel when their wives are drowning in pain… and expect them to fix it.

This episode pulls back the curtain on:

  • Why her distress doesn’t mean you’ve failed

  • How to support someone without losing yourself

  • What makes a real emotional team (hint: it's not being her spiritual crutch)

  • Why curiosity and creativity beat judgment every time

  • How your willingness to listen without “fixing” can be the greatest act of love

You’ll also hear a powerful personal story of a woman who finally broke down about her overstimulation and daily guilt as a mom—and how her husband didn’t solve it… but showed up the way she actually needed.

This episode is for men who are done with shame, but still want to grow. It’s for wives who just need someone to hear them. And it’s for couples who are learning to walk side by side—through fire, fatigue, and faith.
