153: Why Most Marriages Fail - How to Avoid It! // The Key to Saving Your Marriage
02/17/25 • 39 min
Have I created space for hope in my home? Is my home a place where my wife and kids can truly believe in a better future? That question hit me hard, and in this episode of the Brave Co Podcast, we dive into why hope, perseverance, and connection are the foundation of thriving marriages. We’ve seen more breakthrough in relationships this year than ever before, and today, we’re unpacking why—and how you can experience it too.
Lately, I’ve watched countless men step up—not just in words, but in real action. I’ve had guys come to me, fully owning where they’ve fallen short, saying, “I don’t want to be here anymore, and I’ll do whatever it takes to change.” And that’s the difference. So many couples are running on empty, trying to fix their problems with arguments and facts, instead of building their emotional bank account first. The truth is, love isn’t about keeping score—it’s about showing up, day in and day out, even when it’s hard.
We also get into politics, faith, and this new era we’re stepping into—where things are shifting in ways we never expected. Whether it’s in marriage, leadership, or culture, one thing is clear: this is a time for men to rise up, take ownership, and build something strong. If your marriage feels like it’s on the rocks, if you’re wondering how to move forward—this episode is for you.
