Episode 294 is about diving deep into the human experience.

When we deal with our emotions, especially when it comes to love, it’s helpful to identify our patterns. This could resolve a lot of issues when it comes to intimacy, traumas, and even grief. After all, the opposite of love is grief. You love somebody you can lose. That’s an unforgettable line we got from Dr. Thomas Jordan — whose clinical specialty is treating adults who are depressed and anxious about past or present unhealthy relationship experiences, people who are struggling with low self-esteem, feelings of loss, or an unhealthy love life.

Today, Dr. Thomas will be with us to talk about the psychology around love, and how you can change your love life by changing your psychology.

Overcome any emotional dive with us. We provide support for men from all walks of life. Follow us at menonpurpose.net
