Ep. 18 - The Nice Guy Problem (Re-Air)

from Reclaiming the Gentle Man Hosted by Dave Lishansky

Most of us were never taught that being nice could be the problem. In this episode, we get underneath one of the most common — and most invisible — patterns men carry into their closest relationships: the nice guy default. Not cruelty, not neglect, but something harder to see. A performance of goodness that functions as armor, keeping real presence, real emotion, and real accountability safely out of reach.
