50: SHIFT Rx | You Want Him To Talk? Here's Why He's Not
Note sull'episodio
You say you want him to talk—but when he stays silent, what’s really going on?
In this episode of SHIFT Rx, Davina unpacks the hidden wiring behind male emotional shutdown. Spoiler: he’s not emotionally unavailable—he’s emotionally unpracticed. And when you learn what’s happening inside his nervous system, you’ll stop blaming and start understanding.
We’re talking conditioning, double standards, emotional safety, and how to stop flinching when softness finally shows up.
If you’re loving a man, raising a boy, or trying to reconnect with a partner who won’t “just say what he feels”—this episode is required listening.
