The Real Answers Every Man Needs

In this episode of The Work, James breaks down one of the biggest reasons men stay stuck: trying to fix problems they haven’t taken the time to understand.

Most men jump straight into action — solutions, strategies, quick wins — without ever looking beneath the surface. And it’s why the same frustrations, habits, and emotional patterns keep repeating.

James explores what’s really going on underneath the struggle:

• slipping into blame or a quiet victim mindset

• avoiding uncomfortable truths

• old wounds still shaping your behaviour

• responsibility you haven’t fully taken

• a lack of clarity around your values

• or simply not knowing how to tolerate discomfort well

This episode is an invitation to pause, get curious, and understand yourself on a deeper level.

Because real change doesn’t start with fixing the outside — it starts with understanding the inside.

If you feel like you’ve been doing a lot but not moving forward, this conversation will help you see why… and show you where to start.

Tune in, look beneath the surface, and keep doing the work.
