Most men believe they are showing up fully in their relationships. They are doing everything right on paper. And yet something feels off. The intimacy is not quite there, the trust is not fully built, and resentment quietly grows.
In this episode, Lorin breaks down one of the most misunderstood dynamics in relationships: what happens when a man turns his partner into his source of meaning, identity, and purpose, and why, despite his best intentions, it creates the opposite of what he wants.
Lorin explores the difference between a man who has found his deepest calling and commits to a relationship from that place of fullness, and a man who is unconsciously asking his partner to give him what only he can find within himself. Over time, this erodes trust, produces resentment, and leaves both people feeling disconnected.
This episode also speaks directly to women, helping them recognize this dynamic and understand what is actually happening beneath the surface.
Lorin closes with two practical steps any man can take right now.
