Episode #999
Ever feel like you’re just surviving—barely making it through the day, disconnected from your partner, and exhausted from trying to hold it all together? In this episode, Doug sits down with Jason, a husband, father, and business owner who shares the raw truth of how he went from emotional shutdown, chronic pain, and near-divorce to rebuilding connection, purpose, and real partnership.
They talk honestly about what most men won’t admit: the emotional weight we carry, the struggle to show up at home after long days, and how easy it is to slip into resentment. But Jason’s story isn’t just about hitting bottom—it’s about doing the work to rise from it. He walks through the small but powerful shifts he made that helped him reconnect with his wife, become the dad he wanted to be, and find strength in vulnerability.
If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Is this all there is?”—this conversation is for you. No fluff, no hype. Just real talk and a roadmap out of the fog.
