Rebuilding Marriages from the Ground Up with TJ Mackenzie
As a technician in the power industry, TJ Mackenzie was part of a “manly” profession in which stress was high and talking about emotions was discouraged. It nearly destroyed his marriage. Through counseling, he got the help he needed and now provides counseling and relationship coaching for men in similar situations. TJ talks this week about his journey and what he’s learned about sharing emotions honestly.
