Description

In this powerful conversation, Josh sits down with Jeanell Greene, Certified Life & Relationship Coach and the “Man Whisperer” herself. Jeanell works with couples all over the world to rebuild trust, restore connection, and understand each other on a deeper level.

In this episode, Jeanell breaks down WHY so many men feel misunderstood, unheard, and emotionally shut down in their relationships — and what women are really trying to communicate.

She also dives into:

  • Why women think men “aren’t listening”

  • The emotional wiring differences between men and women

  • How men can communicate better without feeling weak or exposed

  • Why vulnerability is actually a man’s superpower, not a liability

  • What creates safety, trust, and intimacy in a marriage

  • Why couples get stuck in cycles of hurt — and how to break them

  • How to rebuild trust quickly (even after major betrayal)

Whether you're dating, married, or trying to heal a struggling relationship… this episode will give you clarity, confidence, and practical tools to lead with strength without losing your heart.

🧠 Key Takeaways

  • Vulnerability creates connection, not weakness.

  • Women aren’t asking men to be mind readers—but they often assume men “should know.”

  • Most conflict comes from different wiring, childhood conditioning, and misunderstandings, not lack of love.

  • Tone matters more than words when communicating.

  • Safety + empathy = trust restored.

  • Praise your spouse often — appreciation is fuel for intimacy.

  • Healthy marriage habits start with self-awareness and emotional honesty.
