In this episode, we sit down with Blake Roberts, a licensed therapist, writer, podcast host, and speaker based in Nashville, TN. Blake specializes in helping men heal attachment wounds, foster healthy relationships, and learn to trust again.

If you're looking for ways to support your husband—or any loved one—who is struggling with addiction, this is a must-listen. Blake offers invaluable insights into the healing process, the power of community, and how to move from self-protection to real connection.

Blake shares his personal journey, from navigating a complicated upbringing and battling addiction to finding freedom through therapy, 12-step recovery, and faith. 

He opens up about key turning points in his life, including an intensive workshop for sex addiction, his decision to quit drinking, and his unexpected shift from pursuing ministry to becoming a therapist.

Blake also introduces his latest project, Three Percent, a community he co-founded to help men develop honesty, vulnerability, and deeper connections.
