I sit down with my guest to explore the pain that shaped his relationships, especially the deep wound left by his father. Together, we uncover how childhood neglect and emotional distance can carry into adulthood, shaping how men love, trust, and show up. You’ll hear the raw, unfiltered process of reconnection, forgiveness, and reclaiming the parts of ourselves we’ve hidden for too long.
