Manipulation

Can you be too nice?

If you find yourself consistently feeling unappreciated, it's most likely because of the way you've set up your relationship. Nice guys set up covert contracts, lie about how they're feeling, and overextend themselves as a way to earn respect and appreciation. If that doesn't work, they can start to feel resentful, frustrated, and confused. I'll talk about how this works and give you some new ways to break out of the "fake nice" pattern.

Commitment

I have a theory that Men generally struggle with commitment more than women in relationships. This is less about checking the boxes of "good husband" and more about their ability to commit to emotionally leaning in. When we don't lean in, our partners don't feel like they can lean in either. This distance often becomes the thing couples argue about. Tune in to hear my take on commitment.

Manipulation

We can struggle to assess whether or not we are being manipulated because our autonomy is so valuable. In intimate relationships, couples can get caught in arguments about motives when we feel afraid to do what's being requested of us. I'll give you a simple process to assess manipulation and a few real-life examples.
