Quit already! Maybe not your job first, but the lies you tell yourself

In the new episode of Men in Crisis, we talk about men who have long since checked out internally and yet continue to function every morning. They stay in the same job, in the same routines and often in relationships that haven’t felt right for a long time.

Not because they are happy. But because they are afraid of what might happen if they were honest. So you stay. Hold out. Distract yourself. And tell yourself why “right now” is not the right time to change something.

The only problem is: at some point, security turns into stagnation. Habit becomes emptiness. And functioning becomes a life that moves further and further away from what you actually wanted.

We talk about why so many men get stuck in freeze mode, why negative images of the future keep them down and why courage is not something you either have or don’t have. Courage can be trained: through small decisions, new routines and the willingness to finally face up to your own truth.

You don’t necessarily have to quit your job immediately. Maybe you first need to quit the lies you tell yourself every day.

New episode Men in crisis: about fear, standstill and the question of why so many men have long since given up inside.
