You second-guess every decision. You overthink every conversation. You're constantly worried about doing the wrong thing, upsetting someone, or messing up. Sound familiar? That's what we're diving into in this episode: why nice guys don't trust themselves — and how that lack of self-trust is sabotaging every relationship in their lives.
Chuck, Ari, and Faisal get real about their own struggles with self-doubt, people-pleasing, and that paralyzing fear of being wrong. Because here's the brutal truth: if you don't trust yourself, nobody else will either. Not your partner, not your kids, not your team.
We break down:
Why nice guys outsource their decisions and avoid conflict at all costs
How childhood programming taught us that being "good" is more important than being honest
The shame spiral that keeps men stuck in analysis paralysis
Why women can sense when you don't trust yourself (and why it's such a turn-off)
Practical steps to rebuild self-trust through consistency and accountability
How to stop looking for validation and start validating your own decisions
The power of leaning into tension instead of always taking the easy way out
This isn't just about making better decisions — it's about reclaiming your masculine core and becoming the kind of man who knows what he thinks, what he wants, and where he's going.
If you've been living someone else's blueprint instead of your own, this conversation will wake you up. Time to stop asking for permission and start trusting yourself.
