101 - Cathy Forrester : should we stay married or get divorced?

Published on: 15th March, 2022

This guest is one that I’m absolutely so excited to share with you! My amazing wife, Cathy Forrester, joins me this week. Cathy works with children with dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, and executive functioning deficits and is a homeschool coach. In addition, she’s a mother to four adult children and two grandchildren.

We talk about how our upbringing, beliefs and environments impacted us and our relationship. Add to those money problems, challenges of being new parents and communication differences...it was a perfect storm that saw us seeing divorce differently. This is the first of two parts and we end with having four children, being a young family and feeling like we might be finding our footing...just maybe.

About the Podcast

Living Fearless Today

Helping men break generational cycles, heal the father wound, and become a better husband and dad.

You swore you'd be a different kind of father than the one who raised you. Then one day you caught his words and tone coming out of your mouth. You felt the same distance creep in at home, and wondered how much of him you're still carrying despite the promise you made to yourself.

Living Fearless Today is a podcast for men who are done repeating the patterns they grew up with. Host Mike Forrester has stood where you're standing. Every week he brings honest conversations and practical tools for the parts of a man's life that rarely get said out loud: the father wound you never named, the anger that shows up with the people you love most, the marriage that's gone quiet, and the man you still want to become.

The show helps you understand the past that shaped you. Then you take an honest look at where you stand today as a husband, a father, and a man. From there you start building the future you actually want, one choice at a time, instead of drifting into the one you were handed and currently living out.

Episodes cover identity, anger, shame, marriage and fatherhood, relationships, self-worth, courage, emotional intelligence, legacy and purpose, and the brotherhood that the vast majority of men are missing. If you've looked for how to break generational cycles, face a father wound, handle anger as a dad, or become a better husband and father, start here.

The cycle can end with you. Press play and take the first step toward becoming the man you needed when you were young.
