Why Nice Guys Don't Get What They Want (and What To Do About It) with Ashley Cox

There’s no denying it. Nice guys are toxic.

Take it from emotional analysis and resolution coach Ashley Cox, who’s been working with nice guys in taking back their personal power.

Men get stuck in this unhealthy archetype in response to unattended childhood trauma and unmet needs.

While it’s impossible for women to force their male-bodied partners to change, they can make decisions that benefit the relationship while transforming it by showing up with more authenticity and honesty.

Tune in to this episode: Why Nice Guys Don't Get What They Want (and What To Do About It) with Ashley Cox

Key points covered in this episode:

✔️ Be in touch with your rage and pain and get comfortable with it. Nice guys are afraid of becoming a threat. So they let go of taking charge. Ashley Cox advises men to be the protector against bad men, their partner’s self-sabotage, and their own unaddressed trauma.

✔️ Be a safe place for your man to express himself authentically. Instead of poking his buttons, explore your disruptive behaviors that block him from showing his real self. Be vulnerable — go first. 

✔️ Appreciate your partner’s efforts! Men and women are wired differently by nature. If you see your man being receptive and trying, don’t forget to praise him for that.

✔️ Women have more power than they realize. Not recognizing and disrespecting their efforts can hurt men emotionally and physically. In the end, both of you want connection. Work on building safety for it to happen!

Many women want an emotionally connected man but most of us aren’t ready to fully receive one. It’s time to find ways to soften up and own your role in the relationship and give him space to show up for you.
