104 - Cathy Forrester : how we saved our marriage and family

Published on: 22nd March, 2022

My phenomenal wife, Cathy Forrester, rejoins me this week to continue sharing our journey. Cathy's passion is to support children in their dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, and executive functioning challenges and she is also a homeschool coach. Being married for 27 years, she is the mom of four adult children and two grandchildren.

We continue to dive into the marital and family challenges we faced, work through and rebuild trust in our relationships. After our move to Kansas, the struggles we experienced drew us together and fostered new battles for both of us, individually and as a couple. In asking for help, we discovered our thoughts and beliefs impacted our personal and business life, we began to experience change. This provided newfound strength and energy to push deeper into our healing process. We discovered who we are and are married to, plus saw our family change in ways we had only hoped we possible before. We experienced transformation personally, in our marriage and as parents - things began to heal which had been broken.

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.
