“Lori would come to me and say, how are we gonna get through these holidays?” I didn’t have an answer until we built a plan.
In this video:
– THE LONG RUNWAY: why the holidays start wearing on you in October
– SHE DOESN’T HAVE A MAP: 40 hours with your family in 10 years, and the exit strategy she needs
– THE EASY TARGET: why the stress lands on your wife, and how to stop it
– THE LIST: the tool our therapist gave us for knowing how your family will show up
If the holidays leave you tense, short with your wife, and glad when they’re over, this one’s for you.
Storm Ready Men is for men who look fine on the outside and know something underneath needs work.
