Episode 35 - Being Insecure as a Man When Your Woman is Successful
There are a lot of longstanding traditional gender roles in society and general and especially within a serious relationship. Something that plays in tremendously to how you view yourself is how you view yourself within your relationship. Many men who find themselves making less money or achieving less success (in their minds) than their spouse, will find that insecurity bleeding into other areas of their lives and possibly coming out in negative way. Insecurity as a man can be devastating and even dangerous for his self identity.
In this episode, Rickey opens up about his own struggles with insecurity as a man when Karly began seeing a lot of success in her career, what that meant for him and how he began working through it. This subject might not apply for everyone but for those whom it does, this information can be truly refreshing and possibly critical for moving forward in your life.
