The Relentless Pressure Men Face To Perform: What Men Are Really Struggling

Men are expected to have it all together. Make the money. Stay strong. Lead the relationship. Never complain. Never crack. But what actually happens when the pressure to perform never lets up? In this episode, we read out a listener write-in and unpack the silent expectations placed on men, from success and sex to confidence and emotional control, and why so many men feel like they’re failing even when they’re doing everything “right.” We discuss the stress no one sees, the burnout no one asks about, and the internal battles men rarely feel safe admitting out loud.
