Description

When your wife won't acknowledge the hurt or accept your apology, what then? This episode breaks down forgiveness as a transaction — why it always has a cost, how to pursue it when you're the only one willing, and why one-sided forgiveness still brings real freedom. Learn to let go of emotional debt, avoid the resentment trap, and become someone who leads with grace. For men navigating separation who want to respond with integrity.
