  • Anger - From a Man's Perspective Part 4
    Feb 4 2026

    In this fourth installment of Anger From a Man’s Perspective, Brian Bercht addresses a powerful and common question from a wife navigating betrayal recovery: “If he’s trying to clean up his act, why does he still walk around with an angry, sour attitude, and why does it make me feel unsafe?”

    This episode unpacks what’s really happening beneath a man’s anger after an affair, especially when he appears to be doing many of the “right” things on the surface but still shows up with frustration, defensiveness, or a persistent edge.

    Brian explains why a man’s anger is often not about his wife, but about perceived injustice, fear, loss of control, and unresolved internal struggles. He outlines how anger can mask deeper emotions like fear, shame, insecurity, and feelings of being overlooked, misunderstood, or insignificant; many of which predate the marriage itself.

    Yes, you can move beyond the pain and get the life you want.

  • Anger - From a Man's Perspective Part 3
    Jan 28 2026

    Do men truly realize the impact their anger has on their wives? And if they don’t, what do they actually believe about their anger and its effects?

    In this episode, Brian dives straight into a listener question that explores the often-misunderstood dynamics of male anger in marriage. He breaks down why compound questions can create confusion in communication, especially between husbands and wives, and how that confusion can unintentionally lead to hurt, frustration, and conflict.

    If you’ve ever felt misunderstood, or wondered why your spouse “doesn’t get it," this episode will shed light on what’s really happening beneath the surface.

    Yes, you can move beyond the pain and get the life you want.

  • Anger - From a Man's Perspective Part 2
    Jan 21 2026

    In this second installment on anger from a man’s perspective, Brian continues the conversation by discussing the beliefs, behaviors, and biological differences that often shape how men experience and express anger.

    This episode dives into the visceral differences between men and women, exploring why women are often more sensitive to signs of anger or danger, and how this sensitivity is not a flaw, but a God-designed, instinctive response rooted in protection and survival.

    If you’re navigating conflict, emotional disconnect, or healing after betrayal, this episode offers clarity, wisdom, and a healthier framework for understanding anger...without shame or blame.

    Yes, you can move beyond the pain and get the life you want.
