You’ve been told real men always sacrifice. That setting boundaries is cold. That taking care of yourself is selfish.

But here’s the truth:
Self love is not selfish. Self love is not narcissistic. Self love is strength.

In this episode of The Secure Husband Podcast, we unpack a lie many men were raised to believe — that putting yourself first means you're doing something wrong. You’ll learn why loving yourself is actually the most loving thing you can do for your marriage.

This video will help you:
✅ Stop feeling guilty for setting boundaries
✅ Learn the difference between selfishness and self-respect
✅ Heal the part of you that fears being “the bad guy”
✅ Lead your emotions without handing them to your wife
✅ Love her fully — without losing yourself

What we cover:

Why men confuse sacrifice with love

How self-neglect damages your marriage

Why boundaries create emotional safety

What self-leadership really looks like

How to speak up with both kindness and clarity

You don’t have to disappear to keep the peace. You don’t have to stay silent to be good. You don’t have to give yourself away to be loved.

You can be whole.
You can be strong.
You can lead — without guilt.
