    70 | Insecurity in Men: Fear, Self-Doubt & Negative Thinking (with Chris Hirdler)

    If you’ve ever wondered why men pull away instead of opening up, this episode helps explain what’s happening underneath. Chris shares what it’s been like to live with fear, self-doubt, and negative self-talk as a man, a husband, a counselor, a father, and someone whose life changed forever after a spinal cord injury. He opens up about the quiet pressures men carry, the things they don’t say out loud, and how insecurity often hides behind silence, humor, control, or pulling away. This episode is for men who feel like they’re supposed to be strong but secretly feel unsure. And it’s for women who want to better understand what might be happening beneath the surface for the men they love. In this episode, Chris talks about: Why insecurity in men often goes unseen and unspoken How identity, comparison, and fear shape self-worth The “committee in your head” and automatic negative thoughts Why vulnerability feels risky but is necessary for growth How insecurity affects marriage, connection, and trust What Scripture says about redirecting fearful thoughts Why admitting weakness is not failure, but the beginning of trust Chris reminds us that insecurity is real, but it doesn’t get the final word. Our security isn’t found in performance, success, strength, or comparison. It’s found in God’s presence. Share this episode with someone in your life that needs it!!
