It's not your fault that your words don't get through.
Your husband carries something called a shame raincoat. Every affirmation, every positive thing you say hits that raincoat and washes away. Not because your words are wrong. Because the shame keeps telling him he's broken.
That raincoat doesn't come off in contact with you. It comes off when he connects with other men who say "I've been there." Not men who make his behavior okay. Men who call him out and make it okay for him to change.
In this video I explain why he's isolated, why your words feel ineffective, and what kind of relationships he actually needs to begin healing. This isn't about giving him permission to hang out with the boys. This is about building something he's probably never learned how to do.
