Скачать или смотреть 190: The "Silent Crisis with David McLain & Jamal Jones

The unspoken reality of being a widower, a single father, and a man trying to find love again.

In this episode, I sit down with David McClain and Jamal Jones, hosts of the powerful podcast Getting Back Up. Both men lost their wives to cancer and were left to raise their children alone. They reveal the brutal truths about grief that most men are too afraid to admit—from the anger you feel at your late spouse for leaving you, to the guilt of removing their furniture to reclaim your home.
If you are struggling with loss, navigating single fatherhood, or feeling guilty about moving on, this conversation is the permission slip you didn’t know you needed.
Topics Discussed:
Why "staying strong" is actually a weakness in disguise.
The "Dad's House, Dad's Rules" moment: Changing the environment to survive.
How to date again without feeling like you are cheating on your late wife.
The concept of "Post-Traumatic Growth" and how to harden like an egg, not soften like a carrot.
