Why Does My Forward Progress Sometimes Cause Emotional Whiplash in My Wife? Part 4 – The Myth of “It’s Just My Story”


Listen Later

Why does your progress feel like a betrayal to your wife… even when you're doing the right thing?

In Part 4 of this series, we unpack one of the most painful (and hidden) myths sabotaging emotional intimacy: the belief that “my addiction only hurt me” and “she doesn’t get to share the story.”

This episode confronts:

  • The emotional whiplash your wife feels when your private healing becomes a public pain

  • Why “you can’t tell anyone” is often a cover for shame, not privacy

  • The difference between protecting her trust vs. controlling the narrative

  • How authentic wives live one story—and why husbands living a “dual life” creates chaos

  • What it really means to support her growth, even when it’s painful for you

  • How to know if you're secure enough to empathize with her pain more than your own

If your wife keeps hurting—and you don’t know why—this episode might give you answers no one else has dared to say out loud.
