Most men feel a twinge of guilt when they leave home—whether it’s for work, a trip, or adventure. This episode breaks down how to handle it without losing presence or connection.

Highlights:

• The moment in the Grand Canyon that reframed what “leaving well” really means
• Why guilt shows up for good men—and what it’s actually telling you
• The hidden cost of trying to control your wife’s emotions
• How to prepare your family without overcompensating
• The three-part framework: Acknowledge. Let go. Redefine responsibility.
• What it looks like to come home clear, calm, and recharged

Practical Takeaways:

1. Guilt isn’t a problem—it’s proof you care.
2. Let go of trying to manage outcomes you can’t control.
3. Leave home with trust so you can return full, not drained.
