Join Pastor Lawrence and Bishop Victor Powell as they unpack the emotional red flags in families, marriages, and father-child relationships. From real-life stories of children yearning for their dad’s attention to women emotionally checking out of marriages, this episode challenges men to show up fully—not just financially or physically, but emotionally and spiritually.

💡 Topics Covered:

• The difference between physical and emotional presence
• Why emotional neglect damages children long-term
• How emotionally distant fathers affect marriages

Welcome back to the Red Flag Coaches Podcast! 🎙️

Last week’s conversation with Bishop Victor L. Powell was so impactful, we had to come back for Part 2!

This week, we continue diving deep into the emotional conditioning of Black men with our powerful topic: "He's Not Cold, He's Conditioned: Why Black Men Struggle to Communicate."

In this episode, Lawrence Knighton and Bishop Powell explore:

🔹 How childhood trauma shapes adult communication

🔹 Why emotional suppression is both generational and survival-based

🔹 The silent wounds Black men carry into relationships

🔹 How slavery, generational trauma, and survival shaped emotional detachment

Practical ways for men to start healing and talking openly

🔹 How women can create safe spaces without judgment

🔹 Why therapy is essential — and why it's strength, not weakness

This is a real, raw, and necessary conversation that challenges old mindsets and offers tools for healing in our communities.

Challenge for the week: Brothers — have ONE real, emotional conversation. And share this episode with another brother who needs it. Remember: "Silence might protect your pride, but it kills your connection."
