He couldn't eat. He couldn't sleep. His wife had left, moved on, and was still emotionally entangled with him—while dating someone new.
And Chris? He was stuck.

In this powerful case study episode, I interview Chris, a former firefighter and Healthy Men-tality Graduate,  about his journey through a heartbreaking ending of his 10 year marriage, the subsequent emotional collapse, nervous system dysregulation, and the slow climb toward healing, peace, and purpose.

You'll hear:

• Why traditional therapy wasn't enough to help him move forward

• How breathwork helped him remember childhood trauma he'd blocked out

• What boundaries finally set him free from his ex-wife's emotional grip

• The difference between surviving and living again after betrayal

• The exact moment Chris said "I feel hope again"

If you've ever felt lost after a breakup or divorce, like your nervous system is hijacking your healing, or like you have no idea how to rebuild your life - this episode will feel very relatable.

MEN! If you're done pretending you're fine and ready to actually feel like yourself again - the Healthy Men-tality program  is the container that will change your life and put you back in the driver's seat
