Is Pride a Man’s Greatest Strength or His Most Dangerous Emotion?

Описание: Is pride protecting men… or quietly destroying their relationships?

In this powerful episode of He's a Guy, the guys sit down for one of the most honest conversations yet about pride, masculinity, vulnerability, and emotional avoidance.

Men are taught to stay strong, keep quiet, and walk away instead of opening up. But what does that cost us in friendships, romantic relationships, brotherhood, and family?

From real-life fallout between close friends, to stories about missed years, unresolved conflict, and the fear of being seen as weak, this episode explores why pride feels safer than vulnerability and why it might be the very thing holding men back.

This conversation goes deep into:

-Why men shut down instead of speaking up
-The difference between healthy pride and toxic ego
-How silence becomes emotional avoidance
-Why vulnerability feels harder than walking away
-The long-term cost of pride on brotherhood and family
-This is not a surface-level conversation. It is raw, reflective, and necessary.

If you are a man who has ever said “I’m good” when you weren’t, this episode is for you.
