Why Divorced Dads Wait Until It's 10x Harder to Quit

I waited years to tell anyone about a habit that was quietly running my life — and it didn't die until I did. This episode is about the pattern I now see in dad after dad who reaches out: crisis, relief, silence, and a worse crisis later. What's actually happening underneath it, and the exact process that breaks it before it gets 10x harder.
In this episode:

• Why the urge to hide something is actually the clearest evidence of where your real problem lives
• Kahneman and Tversky's research on why pain — not opportunity — is what actually moves most men to act
• James Prochaska's stages-of-change research and the exact point where people mistake feeling better for being done
• Julian Rotter's locus-of-control research and why gripping outcomes you never controlled burns you out
• Pierre Azoulay's Harvard Business School research on founder age — why real success takes far longer than it looks from outside
• The Chop Wood, Carry Water framework — four moves for exposing what you're hiding before it gets 10x harder
• Sheldon Cohen's research on social support and why accountability is a measurable stress buffer, not just a feeling
• Angela Duckworth's grit research and what it actually predicts about who sustains change
• Albert Bandura's Bobo doll studies — what your kids are actually learning by watching you
• Galatians 6:9 — the timeline promise behind doing the hard thing anyway
