Manage episode 458941246 series 3410291
Episode #922
Are you still falling into the trap of being the "nice guy" in your relationship? Let’s revisit what this means and how to move beyond it.
In this episode, Doug and Andy take another look at the behaviors that keep men stuck in people-pleasing patterns—and the consequences it has on their marriages. We explore why covert contracts (those unspoken expectations) lead to resentment, and what happens when men swing too far in the opposite direction, becoming overly detached or aggressive.
You’ll learn how to check your motives, avoid transactional behaviors, and handle feedback from your partner without shutting down or overreacting. With clear examples and actionable insights, this discussion will help you show up as a confident and caring husband without slipping back into old habits.
If you’re ready to reevaluate and refine how you’re showing up in your marriage, this episode is for you.
