What if the discomfort you're avoiding is the doorway to deeper connection, healing, and leadership?

In this raw and revealing episode, Jay and Mike unpack the power of leaning in - in relationships, in business, and within ourselves.

From the psychology of avoidant attachment to the deep personal lessons learned in recent men's work and workshops, this conversation gets real, fast.

You’ll hear:

🔹 Why avoidance creates unconscious emotional harm — and how to own it
🔹 The link between childhood abandonment and adult patterns of disconnection
🔹 How to recognise the heat of reactivity before it causes damage
🔹 The transformational power of vulnerability and pausing before reacting
🔹 A no-BS take on intimacy, conflict, and emotional safety in relationships

This one hits hard, for the men navigating modern relationships, for the leaders who want to grow their teams and themselves, and for anyone who knows that true growth lies just beyond their edge.

Lean in. It might just change everything.
