Episode Description:
The calmest man in the room often carries the most pressure.

In this 15-minute episode, Andy explores The I’m Fine Mask — the man who appears chill, easy-going, and low-maintenance, but is quietly carrying resentment, suppressed anger, and a growing sense of being stuck.

This isn’t about anger management or emotional outbursts.
 It’s about what happens when a man survives by staying on the surface — and what it costs him at work, at home, and inside himself.

If you’ve ever thought, “Nothing’s wrong… but this can’t be it,” this episode is for you.

In This Episode:

• Why “I’m fine” isn’t a feeling — it’s a survival strategy
• How suppressed anger turns into quiet hostility and resentment
• Why so many dependable men feel unappreciated and stuck
• The hidden cost of being the “easy one”
• What actually needs to shift before pressure takes over

Who This Is For:
Men who:

• Appear calm but feel tense underneath
• Take on too much at work and resent it
• Feel emotionally flat or quietly irritated at home
• Avoid conflict and don’t “do anger”
• Sense something is building but don’t know what to do with it

Key Line:
“You don’t have a strategy for emotion. You only have endurance.”

Series:
This episode is part of The 9 Masks Men Wear — short reflections on the survival identities men adopt, and what it takes to move beyond them.
