Episode #1033

Most men want to be better at communicating with their wife but don’t always know how. Especially when it comes to listening without turning it into a checklist or interrogation. In this episode, Doug and Chris break down what it looks like to build real connection through everyday conversations — even when things feel distant or tense.

They talk about the “collecting berries” concept and how it helps men understand the way women process emotions and daily life. You’ll learn why your curiosity matters more than your words, how to ask better questions, and what to do when your wife doesn’t open up right away.

This isn’t about scripts or techniques. It’s about showing up with genuine presence, creating safety, and knowing when to lean in and when to back off. Doug also shares how simple questions, small moments, and being consistent can rebuild trust and intimacy over time.

They also dive into why so many men feel isolated, how to build real friendships as a husband and father, and the role community plays in helping you stay on track as a leader at home.
