Summary
In this episode, we talk about how birth order and a man’s relationship with his father quietly scripts his life. Aside jokes about “first son must suffer,” this conversation goes into the real weight of being the first boy: expectations to be strong, provide, “take care of your mother,” and mirror or outperform your father. We talk about how being first‑born, middle child, or last born, and whether your father was present, distant, harsh, soft, or absent, shapes your choices in career, love, anger, and how you show up as a man.Join the Overthinkers Anonymous community.
