I break down the four types of men who are the easiest to manipulate in relationships - and why these patterns usually start long before the relationship itself. I talk about the hidden wounds behind shame, over-functioning, fear of conflict, and putting women on a pedestal, and how those patterns quietly shape attraction, boundaries, and self-respect. This episode is about recognizing the role you play in unhealthy dynamics without falling into self-blame. If you’ve ever felt like you lose yourself in relationships, this conversation will help you understand why - and what it actually takes to change it.SHOW HIGHLIGHTS00:00 - The Men Most Easy to Manipulate01:22 - The Shamed Man06:15 - The Chronic Growth Guy09:18 - Moving the Goalpost11:08 - The Scared Man15:02 - Conflict Is Not a Threat19:00 - The Worshiper23:10 - From Wounding to Self-Respect***Tired of feeling like you're never enough?
