You can't connect with your wife from a dysregulated nervous system — no matter how much you love her.

Most marriage conflict has nothing to do with what was actually said. It's two dysregulated nervous systems colliding — one fighting, one fleeing, one freezing — and nobody can see anybody clearly in that state. 

In this episode, you'll learn:

  • Most marriage conflict isn't about what was said, it's two dysregulated nervous systems colliding
  • Intimacy requires safety
  • The man who does his nervous system work is the man whose marriage has a fighting chance

The podcast explores the connection between men and dads seeking freedom from addiction, pornography, infidelity, and drinking, while confronting anger, anxiety, and depression through prayer, meditation, and mindfulness, leaning on Jesus and God for strength, confronting pride, discovering purpose, practicing cold plunges, and ultimately building resilience along the journey.
