Why Men Shut Down: Learning How to Speak Man

from E2M Fitness Media Network · host Dawain Atkinson

Why won’t he open up? Pastor and author Jerome Gay joins Jeff for an honest conversation about what men need to feel safe enough to communicate, why respect matters so deeply, and how couples can stop turning disagreements into blame. Drawing from his book, How to Speak Man, Jerome explains men’s respect languages, emotional vulnerability, processing pain, the importance of taking ownership, and five words that can completely change a difficult conversation: Can I make a request? Jerome also shares how losing 34 pounds through E2M transformed more than his body, helping him become more disciplined, focused, and energized as a husband, father, pastor, and author. https://jeromegayjr.com/how-to-speak-man/?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAcGRvZgJleHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZA85MzY2MTk3NDMzOTI0NTkAAaeokz7eBwdxRD0Ix_R-CImZTJXGxrQoNa6de4mfHA6acMfbNE7iVQOQLW0WSA_aem_lv40Xx4IzzG-6wOzL6VMEA Subscribe and listen now for a conversation every man and woman can learn from.
