A four-episode November series for men ages 40 plus navigating identity, loneliness, relationships, purpose, and emotional endurance as the seasons change.

Today, we explore the emotional and biological shift that happens in men as we move into the colder, darker months. If you are feeling tired, less motivated, disconnected, or irritable, nothing is wrong with you. Your body is responding to a seasonal shift. Learn how to support your mood, energy, and sense of self with simple and powerful adjustments that help you thrive through winter rather than collapse under it.

This week on Here Comes Sunshine, we’re diving deep into a topic many men (and women *raises own hand*) struggle with, but rarely talk about: passive-aggressive behavior.

From brooding silence and simmering resentment to sarcasm, excuse-making, or blame-shifting, these patterns can quietly sabotage connection and happiness.

I’ll walk you through what’s really behind these behaviors and, more importantly, how to shift them.

You’ll learn practical ways to speak your truth, set boundaries without guilt, and build emotional strength that leads to healthier communication and real confidence.

Because when you stop hiding behind frustration or hurtful sarcasm, you start showing up as the man you’re meant to be.

Are you feeling out of sorts and wondering if it is more than just the blues?

In today’s episode of Here Comes Sunshine, I will dive into the often-overlooked ways depression can appear in men, not just emotionally, but physically and behaviorally.

From irritability and exhaustion to changes in habits or drive, men often experience depression differently from women, and it can be easy to miss the signs.

Join me as I talk about the symptoms, normalize the conversation, and take the first steps toward healing and self-awareness.

You are NOT alone, and I am here for YOU!
