In today’s episode, I read an email from a husband living one of the most brutal modern realities: his wife says she’s “touched out” and has no energy for intimacy… yet somehow has unlimited emotional energy for another man at the gym.

This is the pattern I see over and over in dead bedrooms:

She didn’t lose desire.
She redirected it.

If you're a man dealing with a sexless marriage, emotional disconnect, or a wife who has checked out but won’t leave — this one’s going to hit hard.

Today we’re talking about something that a lot of men won’t admit, but a lot of women quietly suffer through: living with an anxious husband. And yes, I’m going to make fun of us a little.

This video is a tongue-in-cheek “instruction manual” for how to care for the anxious, approval-seeking, reassurance-addicted man. The guy who needs constant validation, panics at every text message pause, reads every word you say like a legal document, and assumes you’re leaving him if you’re quiet for more than 30 seconds.

It’s funny… but it’s also painfully accurate.

The point of this episode isn’t to shame anxious guys. It’s to shine a big bright spotlight on the behaviors that slowly choke the life out of a relationship. And more importantly, to show that these patterns aren’t permanent. You can fix this. You can rebuild your confidence, your identity, and your internal leadership as a man.

If this video hits a little close to home, that’s good. It means you’re ready for change.

Rejection hits some men harder than others. For a lot of guys, it’s not just discomfort—it feels like danger. One cold look from your wife. One delayed text. One “Can we talk later?” from your boss. Suddenly you’re spiraling, apologizing, chasing, overreacting, or completely shutting down.

This isn’t weakness. It isn’t you being dramatic.
It’s rejection sensitivity—and most men who grew up in chaotic, unpredictable, or emotionally unstable homes are living with it without ever knowing what it’s called.

In this episode, I'll break down:

— Why some men live relationships on “hard mode”
— How your childhood wired your brain to scan for danger
— Why neutral things feel like personal attacks
— Why you over-apologize, over-explain, and overreact
— How rejection sensitivity contributes to sexless marriages
— Why anxious men attract avoidant or narcissistic partners
— And, most importantly, what you can do to rewire this

If you’re neurodivergent (ADHD, autism, etc.), this is going to make even more sense. RSD (rejection sensitive dysphoria) is something I see constantly in men in my audience and inside The Brotherhood.

You’re not broken. You’re trained.

And you can retrain yourself.

If you want deeper work on this, my book REBUILD and our Brotherhood community are powerful tools to help you break out of this pattern and build confidence, boundaries, and emotional stability.

A lot of men struggle with the realization that they don’t actually have full control over how life or their marriage turns out.
You can do everything “right”—be faithful, provide, stay fit, treat her well—and still end up rejected, divorced, or alone.

In this episode, I talk about why that happens, and why it’s not a sign that you failed. Life isn’t fair… and that includes relationships. I also share a real message from a man dealing with a sexless, disconnected marriage due to his wife’s ADHD and perimenopause, and we unpack what’s really going on beneath the surface.

If this hits close to home, you’re not alone.

I recently read a New York Times article claiming that women under socialism had more sex and better orgasms than women in capitalist Western countries. Sounds wild, right?

But when you dig deeper, the real message is actually something I talk about all the time:

Women shut down sexually when their lives are full of stress, chaos, financial pressure, and mental overload.

This has nothing to do with politics — and everything to do with the realities couples face today.

If you lean anxious in relationships, this one’s for you.

I see it all the time—guys who crave closeness so much that they choke the relationship. You text too much, talk too much, try too hard to keep things “good.” But that desperate energy ends up pushing her away.

I’ll show you what’s really happening under the surface—why your attachment system freaks out when she pulls away, and how to stop feeding that panic. You’ll learn how to regulate yourself, stop chasing reassurance, and build the kind of calm confidence that actually creates attraction.

Today we’re digging into something wild: how a guy who talks about masculinity, strength, and “doing it right” completely lost his cool when his own story was challenged. That guy is Andrew Wilson.

If you’re rebuilding your life, your identity, or trying to walk the line of integrity after a setback—I promise you: this matters.

We’ll cover:

• Who Andrew Wilson is and what he represents
• The “rulebook” many men in the debate/manosphere space are handed (never date a single mom, don’t be a step-dad)
• The viral meltdown: what triggered it, what it reveals
• And most importantly: the real takeaways for you, the man rebuilding (not just surviving)
