Why Trying Harder Is Making Things Worse

If you've been adjusting, doing more, and trying harder at home and things still feel disconnected, this episode explains why.You'll learn why the approach that works everywhere else backfires in close relationships, what your nervous system defaults to under emotional pressure and why those defaults increase disconnection, and what the actual shift looks like. This isn't a motivation problem. It's a capacity problem, and that's a meaningful difference. The Intimacy Upgrade is for high-achieving men who feel disconnected from their partner and don't know why. Hosted by Alyssa Stines, LCSW, a therapist and coach with over seventeen years of clinical experience. Take the free Disconnection Audit: https://theintimacyupgrade.com/disconnection-audit
