The Stories We Never Planned to Tell
How our struggles became the foundation for something bigger.
Hey friends,
You know that moment when someone asks "How are you?" and you reflexively say "Good!" even though thats not the whole truth? Yeah, we've been there too. A lot.
Today we're doing exactly what we've been talking about - getting vulnerable and sharing the real stuff. The 3% that actually matters.
This episode is basically our origin stories - the honest paths that led us both to facing our own struggles, helping clients through theirs, and what all that means for you.
In this episode we’re talking about:
The professional twists and turns that eventually led us to becoming therapists (spoiler: it wasn't a straight line for either of us)
→ giving you permission to embrace your non-linear path
Those pivotal life moments that completely changed our trajectories
→ helping you identify and make meaning of your own turning points
The family dynamics that shaped us (for better and sometimes worse)
→ offering insight into how your family experiences might be influencing your current relationships
How therapy transformed our lives from the inside out
→ showing you what's possible when you commit to your own healing journey
The honest struggles that humbled us and forced real growth
→ providing hope that your challenges can become catalysts for transformation
Look, we know there are plenty of "self-improvement" podcasts out there.
But what we're building here isn't just content - it's community.
It's a place where men can find the language, tools, and support to pursue emotional maturity and deeper connections.
Because let's face it - most of us weren't taught how to navigate our emotional lives or build truly authentic relationships. We're figuring it out together.
