Bro-ing Pains
Bro-ing Pains is the show for men, and for anyone who’s ever loved one. Through vignettes and listener stories, we explore the conversations that live somewhere between your therapist’s office and the group chat.
Hosted by Chad Fraga, LMFT & Carlos (a theater kid turned self-proclaimed “Corporate Papi”), this show blends humor, lived experience, and mental health insight.
New episodes every other Thursday.

Bro-ing Pains
Attachment Styles Explained | Anxious, Avoidant & Healthier Communication
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This episode is part droppin’ gems, part toolkit, and all about communication.
We dive into the history of attachment styles and how our earliest bonds with our primary caregivers shape the way we connect with romantic partners today.
We wrestle with the age-old debate: should you go to bed angry or stay up to hash it out? Plus, we explore Imago couples therapy, the hot take that men are more “efficient” communicators than women, and whether ghosting is avoidance or straight-up emotional immaturity.
