Today’s episode dives deep into the modern war between men and women — why dating is collapsing, why both genders are triggered, and how childhood wounds, survival mode, and cultural shifts have rewired relationships in 2026.

Chad sits down with Heather Cooper, entrepreneur and founder of Happy Pretty Products, to unpack:

• Why men & women are BOTH blaming each other — and both are wrong
• The real reason modern dating feels broken
• How feminism, cultural confusion & survival mode reshaped gender roles
• Why men stopped pursuing women — and why women feel abandoned
• How childhood wounds & unhealed trauma shape who we attract
• Masculine vs. feminine energy: what went wrong & how to fix it
• Single parenthood, triggers, and the rise of defensive dating
• Why almost NO ONE does the inner work anymore
• What it takes to have real connection in a disconnected world

This is one of the rawest, most honest conversations about men, women, relationships, identity, and emotional truth you’ll find online.

If you care about relationships, masculinity, femininity, parenting, or personal growth — this episode will hit you hard.
