A couple of years ago, when I went searching for specific tips, tools and tricks to help me level up my marriage. I read books, I searched the internet, I watch YouTube...But the information I found was...shall I say...lacking! The information also was not particularly relevant to the unique challenges of today’s modern marriages with both people juggling the pressures of working outside the home, living up to societal pressures of those ”perfect” homes, bodies, and all other kinds of expectations that comes from social media. And speaking of social media, what about all the ”temptations”, instant access and just overall problems that come along with it. What was out there tended to be fluffy statements like ”be more loving” or ”communicate more”, or the God-awful advice of ”Never go to bed angry”-like anybody can solve anything when they are exhausted... No wonder the divorce rate is where it’s at! I’m the kind of person who needs specifics. Tell me exactly what to do! but there was nothing out there, so I created my own tips, tools and tricks. But the question I’m sure you are all wondering is...Did it work? And to that, I would say. YES! Not only did my techniques work... they also worked fast! Now I am taking my journey, those lessons, and am here to help marriages and relationships, not only survive, but to thrive. If you are married, ever wanted to be, or just want the absolutely best relationship possible. This is the podcast for you!

In this engaging podcast episode, we sit down with Rich Cooper, a prominent figure in the manosphere, known for his YouTube channel Entrepreneurs in Cars with over 700,000 subscribers and a strong presence on X with 217,000 followers. Rich shares his journey from business-focused content to addressing men’s relationship challenges, drawing from his personal experiences, including his 2011 divorce and subsequent insights into modern relationships.
We dive deep into critical topics for men facing marital struggles, particularly around "dead bedrooms" and lack of intimacy. Rich discusses the pitfalls of conventional relationship advice, the impact of family law, and why modern marriage often fails men, citing stark statistics like 50% divorce rates and low marital bliss after eight years. He explores concepts like hypergamy, the importance of prenups, and the need for men to maintain value and frame in relationships to sustain attraction.
Rich also addresses feminism’s role in shifting relationship dynamics, the importance of vetting women using his 21 red flags (available for free at entrepreneursincars.com/red-flags), and why men must continue to "level up" to remain their partner’s best option.
From navigating competition anxiety to avoiding common mistakes like losing frame or allowing risky behaviors, Rich offers practical advice for men seeking better outcomes in love and life.
Whether you're married, dating, or single, this episode is packed with reality-based insights to help men understand female nature, avoid pitfalls, and build stronger relationships.

In this compelling episode, we sit down with Gift Lasta, a renowned masculinity coach and author, to explore the complexities of modern marriage and masculinity.
Giff, who has helped over 50 men transform their relationships through his Reforge Marriage program, shares his personal journey from overcoming struggles with pornography and marital disconnect to building a thriving marriage.
Drawing from his new book, The Way of Men with Maids: Forgotten Christian Wisdom for Becoming a Man Who Wins at Love, we dive deep into critical topics like maintaining long-term attraction, mastering sexual self-discipline, and understanding the concept of "frame"—the structure of confidence and leadership that allows men to create a safe and appealing space for their partners.
Giff also discusses the male drive for status and conquest, the pitfalls of failing "frame tests," and the importance of proactive leadership in reducing a partner’s mental load. Whether you're a man looking to strengthen your marriage, a woman seeking insight into masculine dynamics, or simply interested in personal growth, this conversation offers practical, strategic advice grounded in real-world experience.

Welcome back to the second part of our two part series on the Eight Characteristics of Unframed Men. In this episode, we wrap up the discussion by exploring characteristics 5 through 8, diving deep into what it means to lack frame and how it impacts your life, relationships, and personal growth.
Building on last week’s insights—where we defined frame, its importance, and covered the first four characteristics—this video tackles the remaining traits with practical advice and real-world examples.
Here’s what we cover:
Characteristic #5: Making Excuses or Blaming Others – We discuss why a lack of accountability is a feminine trait and how men who dodge responsibility sabotage their growth. Learn why taking ownership, even when it’s tough, is essential for building a strong frame.
Characteristic #6: Getting Defensive – Discover the importance of humility in relationships. We explore how defensiveness blocks constructive feedback, especially from your spouse, and how embracing humility can strengthen your marriage.
Characteristic #7: Asking Stupid Questions – From “Where’s the ketchup?” to “What’s there to eat?”, we break down why these seemingly small questions undermine your competence and respect in the eyes of your partner. Get practical tips on taking initiative and owning your household.
Characteristic #8: Ignoring Problems – We address the trend of younger generations opting out of reality through distractions like video games, weed, or pornography. Learn how facing life’s challenges head-on is a cornerstone of becoming a framed man.
This episode is packed with actionable insights for men who want to step up as leaders in their homes and lives. We also touch on cultural observations, like the societal tendency to rescue women but expect men to fend for themselves, and how this shapes accountability. Plus, we share a lighthearted yet pointed perspective on small habits that erode respect in relationships and how to fix them.

Unlock the secret to sustaining long-term sexual attraction in your marriage by mastering the concept of masculine frame. In this in-depth video, we explore the critical role that a strong masculine frame plays in fostering a healthy, passionate relationship dynamic. Learn what it means to operate with mental strength and fortitude, why this is essential for maintaining respect and attraction, and how losing your frame can lead to a female-led marriage and a dead bedroom.
We cover the first four characteristics of unframed men—seeking validation, lacking boundaries, acting childish, and being a "yes man"—and provide actionable insights on how to avoid these pitfalls. These behaviors can erode your wife’s respect and attraction, leading to a reversed polarity dynamic that undermines intimacy. This video is Part 1 of a two-part series, so make sure to subscribe and hit the notification bell to catch Part 2, where we’ll discuss the remaining four characteristics.
For men looking to reignite passion and fix a dead bedroom, this video is a must-watch. The discussion draws from real-world examples, like the importance of standing firm in your convictions (e.g., navigating tough decisions despite pushback) and the cultural reference to George McFly from Back to the Future to illustrate the consequences of weak boundaries.
We also address how to correct a female-led dynamic by calmly asserting leadership and selling your wife on the benefits of a masculine-led relationship, reducing her stress and fostering her femininity. This content is a preview of my upcoming course, designed to help men create and maintain long-term sexual attraction in their marriages.
Don’t miss out on practical strategies to strengthen your mental frame, establish boundaries, and reclaim your role as a confident leader in your marriage. Comment below with your thoughts: Which unframed behavior do you find most challenging, and how are you working to overcome it? Like and share this video with others who could benefit from these insights.

Is marriage really a financial disaster waiting to happen, or could it be the key to a richer, happier life for men? In this in-depth video, we’re tackling the big question: Is marriage worth it? We’re diving into a fascinating article from the Institute of Family Studies (https://ifstudies.org/blog/debunking-the-ball-and-chain-myth-of-marriage-for-men) , packed with data that challenges the myths keeping guys on the sidelines. Spoiler alert: the numbers might just flip your perspective!
Here’s what you’ll discover:
Money Matters: Married men earn 10-40% more than single men (hello, marriage premium!) and build serious wealth—over $130,000 more than never-married guys. Even after a divorce? You’re still ahead financially. We’ll break down the stats and show you the bar graphs.
Divorce Reality: Yes, 42% of first marriages end, but divorce rates are dropping. Plus, we’ll share the simple habits (stable job, no drugs, emotional effort) that slash your risk.
Sex Life Unveiled: Cohabitating guys might have more frequent sex (52% vs. 42%), but married men win on quality and satisfaction—54% report being "extremely satisfied" physically. Novelty’s overrated; connection’s where it’s at.
Health & Happiness Boost: Married men live nearly 10 years longer, manage illness better, and report way higher happiness (43% vs. 20% for singles). Your wife might just be your secret weapon!
This isn’t just opinion—it’s fact-based research to help you decide: should you opt in or opt out of marriage? One catch: the study focuses on ages 20-39, so we’re missing the 50+ crowd navigating menopause and gray divorces. What do you think—does this data hold up, or is it a load of crap? Drop your take in the comments!
