In this powerful and emotionally raw episode of Man: A Quest to Find Meaning, we explore how the quality of your relationships directly shapes the quality of your life — from your energy and mental health to your career, confidence, and sense of self-worth.
James is joined by therapeutic coaches Rebecca and Matthew for an honest, grounded conversation about what it really takes to create loving, conscious, and emotionally fulfilling relationships — especially as men.
Together, they unpack:
- Why self-love isn’t always the starting point — and how relationships can be our greatest teacher
- How suppressed emotions, overthinking, and low self-worth keep us stuck in cycles of conflict or disconnection
- The difference between loving from fear vs. loving from truth — and how to recognise which one you're in
- How to begin inner child healing, what adaptive patterns we carry into adulthood, and why emotional embodiment (not overanalysis) is key to change
- Tools like Family Constellations, cold showers, and nervous system repair for real, embodied healing
This episode is a call-in for any man who feels disconnected, emotionally overwhelmed, or stuck in outdated ideas of masculinity. You'll learn why feeling your emotions isn’t weakness — it’s leadership. And why your inner child, no matter how hidden, still holds the key to your healing.
“A real man feels. A real man heals. And from that place — he thrives.”
