Most men are good at giving—but freeze when it comes to receiving. You’ll support others, carry the load, and stay strong for everyone else… but when someone tries to help you? You brush it off, deflect, or say, “I’m fine.” Even when you’re not.

In this episode of The Secure Husband Podcast, Bruce Abbott explains why letting people help you is not weakness—it’s strength. If asking for help is courageous, then receiving it is the next level of healing. This message will show you how to stop blocking connection and start letting love back in.

Here’s what you’ll take from this episode:
✔️ Why receiving help feels dangerous for so many men
✔️ How childhood wounds make you resist support
✔️ What happens to your marriage when you always say, “I’m fine”
✔️ How to notice your body’s reaction when someone offers help
✔️ Why receiving help is not weakness—it’s strength in action
✔️ Practical steps to practice letting safe people support you
✔️ How to become the kind of man who gives and receives love freely

You don’t have to carry everything on your own. Real strength is not found in isolation—it’s built through connection.

👉 If you’re ready to take the next step, sign up for a free 30-minute consultation at securehusband.com
. No sales pitch, no pressure—just a conversation about what’s happening in your marriage and how coaching might support you.
