Finding the right therapist isn’t just about booking a session. It’s about knowing what you need, what to expect, and how to tell the difference between a good fit and a bad one. In this episode, therapist Timothy Wienecke breaks down a clear and practical guide for men trying to navigate therapy for the first time. Why do so many men feel like therapy is not built for them? And what actually separates helpful therapy from a frustrating experience?
Most dads today are expected to show up, at every appointment, in the delivery room, and through the hard months after the baby comes home. But no one really tells them how. And the research is now making something clear: what a father does during pregnancy doesn't just matter emotionally. It affects his child's biology. His health, his habits, and his presence are all part of the equation. The system has started to include him. It just hasn't figured out how to support him.
In this episode, host Timothy sits down with fatherhood mentor Larry Hagner. Larry has spent years working with men navigating marriage breakdowns, identity struggles, and the quiet disconnection that builds inside modern family life. Drawing from both his own experience and hundreds of conversations with men, he breaks down how good men slowly lose their footing, and how they can find it again.
