Episode Title:
Is He a SAM? Understanding Spiritually Weak Males & Relationship Impact

Description:
In this thought-provoking episode, we dive into “Is He a SAM?” by Dr. Moody, exploring the concept of the Spiritually Weak/Ambivalent Male (SAM) and how this archetype affects modern relationships and society at large.

We unpack:

  • The two SAM types: Classic SAM and The Feral Male

  • The impact of absent fathers and overprotective mothers on male development

  • Powerful analogies like lion prides vs. hyena packs

  • Concepts like Male Impostor Syndrome, emotional intelligence, and spiritual identity

  • Biblical wisdom that reveals patterns and solutions

  • Why mentorship, boundaries, and calling out enabling behavior matter

This episode isn’t just about identifying toxic patterns—it's about healing, challenging societal norms, and redefining what healthy masculinity looks like.
