The Secure Husband

Why It's Hard To Communicate Your Needs


Listen Later

You want to feel close.
You want to speak your needs.
But every time you try, it backfires.

Maybe she pulls away.
Maybe you shut down.
Maybe you explode or say nothing at all.

In this episode of The Secure Husband Podcast, Bruce explains why you keep losing your voice — and how the wounded boy inside you might be in charge of your marriage.

What You’ll Learn:
✅ Why expressing needs isn’t the problem — your tone is
✅ How your inner boy learned to hide, hint, and hope
✅ What clear, calm, adult communication sounds like
✅ Why your delivery matters more than your words
✅ How to speak needs without losing peace or power

🔹 Struggle to say what you want without feeling weak
🔹 Feel shut down, ignored, or like she never responds

🔹 Want to stop feeling needy and start leading with strength

Here’s What You’ll Walk Away With:
✔️ Tools to notice old patterns that keep you stuck
✔️ Simple steps to stop speaking from fear
