Welcome to A Year and a Day. In this episode, Jaime Davis, a board-certified family law attorney at Gailor Hunt, sits down with Bryan Power, creator of MyRelationshipFail.com, to discuss how a relationship crisis can be a powerful catalyst for personal and relational healing.

Bryan shares his personal story of a near-divorce experience that began with a restraining order, explaining how this "final nail in the coffin" moment became a turning point. Together, Jaime and Bryan explore Integrated Attachment Theory and its six core elements: core wounds, emotional control, needs, boundaries, communication, and behavior. Bryan explains the four main attachment styles—secure, anxious, dismissive avoidant, and fearful avoidant—and why understanding them is crucial for healing.

They also discuss why some communication breakdowns happen, how to shift your mindset from blame to personal growth, and why it's so important to be willing to do the work, even if your spouse isn't. Bryan explains how focusing on yourself can lead to a brand-new, healthier relationship, whether it's with your current spouse or a new partner.

When the dust settles after divorce, what comes next for men who are left feeling lost, ashamed, or angry? In this episode, Jaime Davis sits down with Marc Azoulay, a licensed psychotherapist and founder of Men’s Therapy Online, to explore the often-overlooked emotional fallout of divorce for men. Marc shares the two most common archetypes he sees in his work—“the villain” and “the victim”—and explains how early childhood conditioning, societal expectations, and emotional isolation shape men’s post-divorce struggles.

Together, Jaime and Marc discuss why some men default to “nice guy” behavior, why communication breakdowns are so common, and how therapy, community, and honest self-reflection can lead to genuine healing. Marc also explains how he integrates psychoanalysis, neuroscience, and spirituality into his holistic approach to therapy—and why it’s never too late to rewrite your story.
