Male Anxiety & Self-Sabotage | The Identity Crisis Behind the Struggle

Most men fight anxiety the wrong way—white-knuckling, self-medicating, avoiding it entirely. Coach Rob and Brian Sachetta decode why self-sabotage feels safer than vulnerability: the refusal to admit limitation, the avoidance of hard conversations, and the false belief that resilience means suffering alone. Explore how high-stress professionals and veterans become trapped in identity-driven anxiety cycles—and why real failure recovery starts with restructuring your core beliefs about what it means to be a man. This isn't coping. This is identity reconstruction.Brian's links from the episode:Get Out of Your Head@getoutofyourheadGet Out of Your Head: A Toolkit for Living with and Overcoming AnxietyGet Out of Your Head Volume 2: Navigating the Abyss of DepressionGet Out of Your Head®WebsiteInstagramBooksBrand
