When conflict arises in your marriage, the words you choose can either help or hurt your relationship. In this episode of Better Husband, I explore the crucial question you must ask yourself during conflicts: Is what I'm about to say going to help or hurt my marriage? I'll share a simple four-step framework, CALM (Clarify, Acknowledge, Look, Manage), designed to help you handle conflicts in a way that strengthens your relationship. Using real-life examples, including my own experiences, I'll demonstrate how to communicate clearly, empathize with your partner, focus on what’s best for the marriage, and manage outcomes without resentment.

In this episode of We Are The Men, I share my thoughts on the profound impact of men's groups on personal growth and relationships. I share my own journey from skepticism to life-changing experiences in a men's group, emphasizing the importance of community and connection for men. I also outline three key reasons why these groups are essential: getting out of one's head, learning to listen, and embracing accountability. By participating in a men's group, men can break free from isolation, improve their relationships, and gain the support needed to navigate life's challenges.
