Podcast Description
Unlock Unshakable Confidence, Leadership, and Freedom as a Man
This is the podcast for men who refuse to settle. If you’ve ever felt stuck in your marriage, career, or personal growth—like you’re carrying the weight of the world while secretly wondering if it’s all about to fall apart—you’re not alone. Too many high-achieving men feel like they’re winning on the outside but losing where it matters most: in their relationships, their inner peace, and their sense of purpose.
This show is your roadmap to breaking free. It’s where men learn to stop living on autopilot, take ownership of their lives, and step into the kind of strength and leadership that changes everything—from the way they handle conflict to the way they show up as husbands, fathers, and men of impact.
Each episode dives deep into the real struggles men face:
Overcoming resentment, shame, and emotional isolationBreaking free from the need for external validationRebuilding intimacy and trust in marriage without begging for itMastering emotional resilience and self-sourced confidenceFinding purpose and direction without feeling lost in expectationsLearning the power of brotherhood, accountability, and personal ownership
This isn’t about gimmicks, outdated alpha-male advice, or shallow self-improvement hacks. It’s about real, lasting transformation. You won’t find easy answers here—just the raw truth, powerful insights, and practical strategies that help men reclaim their power and lead their lives with clarity and conviction.
Hosted by a mentor and coach who has walked this path firsthand, the conversations go beyond surface-level talk. You’ll hear from men who have done the work—men who have faced their darkest moments and emerged stronger, wiser, and more unstoppable than ever.
If you’re tired of feeling stuck, if you’re done with self-doubt, and if you’re ready to step into a version of yourself that leads, loves, and lives with unshakable confidence—this is where it starts.

What does it mean to be an emotionally safe man? Not just in theory—but in the day-to-day mess of marriage, intimacy, and relational gridlock?
In this raw and enlightening episode, Sven sits down with Steve Horsmon from GoodGuys2GreatMen—a coach, mentor, and co-author (along with Sven) of the book Narcissist! Or Not?. Together, they unpack one of the most misunderstood ideas in relationships: emotional safety. Why women crave it. Why most men misunderstand it. And how learning to embody it can unlock the intimacy and connection you’ve been chasing for years.
This isn’t another feel-good pep talk or soft advice. It’s a grounded, humorous, deeply relatable conversation between two men who have lived the transformation themselves—and now mentor others through it.
Here’s what we explore in this episode:
- What emotional safety really means (it’s not about coddling feelings)
- Why most men are emotionally unsafe—and don’t realize it
- The hidden resentment cycle that destroys intimacy
- Why your kids feel safe with you, but your wife doesn’t—and what that says
- How anxious men unknowingly create avoidant partners
- Why being the “lighthouse” is more powerful than being the “rowboat”
- The truth about sex, safety, and spiritual maturity in relationships
- Why trying harder usually backfires—and what actually works
- The “emotional weaning” every man must go through to become whole
- And why the best thing you can do for your relationship… is stop needing it to fix you
This is one of those episodes you’ll come back to again and again—not just for the insights, but because it reminds you of who you are and who you’re becoming.
If you’re ready to stop chasing approval, fighting for connection, or wondering if your marriage will ever feel alive again… this episode offers a new path: one rooted in maturity, sovereignty, and quiet strength.
