The Truth About Leading Your Relationship - She Won’t Just Hand You the Reins — Why Leading as a Man Requires Earning It l EP. 42 l

Episode 42

You said you wanted to lead your wife, your relationship, your family — good.
 But don’t expect her to hand you the reins without a test.

In this episode, I unpack the mistake most men make when stepping into their masculine: they expect leadership, respect, and intimacy to just be handed over because they’ve “woken up.” But leadership isn’t given — it’s earned. And every moment of pushback is the exact opportunity to prove you’re ready for it.

Expect resistance. Expect the test. And learn to stay grounded, calm, and connected — even when you're being challenged.

If you want her trust, her respect, her desire — it starts with your breath, your presence, and your leadership.

In this episode:

  • Why your leadership must be earned, not assumed
  • The hidden reason she challenges you when you step up
  • How failing her tests kills polarity
  • Why nervous system regulation is your greatest leadership tool
  • A step-by-step breathwork practice to hold frame in the heat
