Ep. 158: 5 Virtues Every Man Needs to Heal After Divorce

Do you feel like you’re doing everything right during your divorce, but still stuck in the same painful patterns? Here’s why awareness alone isn’t enough to create the change you desire, and why real growth begins when you start living with intention.

Listen in as I talk about the powerful virtues — patience, curiosity, honesty, perseverance, and love — and how embodying them can shift the way you approach the challenges of divorce. I’ll also share lessons from my coaching experience with men across the country who are working through the deep emotional layers that divorce unearths.

What You’ll Learn:

  • Why understanding something doesn’t mean we’re ready to change.
  • How to be patient with yourself while creating a new relationship with your ex.
  • Why curiosity, not control, is the answer to emotional clarity.
  • The hidden cost of avoiding honesty with yourself and others.
  • How perseverance helps you move forward.
  • What it really means to practice love in the face of pain.
  • Why old habits won’t guide you through a new chapter of life.
  • How building structure helps reduce avoidable costs during divorce.
