Better Husband
Better Husband, hosted by men’s marriage and relationship coach Angelo Santiago, is a podcast for any man who’s ever asked, “How can I be a better husband?”
Each week, you’ll learn simple, practical ways to fix your marriage, reconnect with your wife, rebuild trust, and bring back real intimacy.
If your marriage feels stuck, distant, or on the edge, this podcast gives you real tools and step-by-step skills to communicate better, handle conflict, and build a stronger marriage that lasts.
After 12 years of marriage—including a near-divorce that became the turning point for change—Angelo has dedicated his life to helping men save their marriages and become the husbands their wives can trust and feel close to again.
Through years of leading men’s retreats, online communities, and one-on-one coaching, he brings grounded, real-world guidance on communication, conflict, and connection.
If you want to repair what’s broken, rebuild connection, and learn the skills to make your marriage work, Better Husband will show you how—one episode at a time.

In this episode, Angelo invites you to slow down before the new year begins and take an honest look at how you actually showed up as a husband over the past year. Not how hard you worked. Not how much you provided. But how you listened, how you handled conflict, how present you were, and how often you chose connection instead of distance.
You’ll hear why most marriages stay the same year after year even when both people care, and how choosing a clear direction changes everything. Angelo walks you through eight practical questions designed to help you create intention instead of drifting into the next year on autopilot.

🔨 Action Steps This Week:
1⃣ Go to betterhusbandquestions.com and download the printable PDF.
Print it out or save it somewhere you can actually sit with it. Do not rush this or answer it distracted.
2⃣ Answer the first four questions on your own.
Write honestly about where you are and how you want to grow. Do not aim for the right answers. Aim for the real ones.
3⃣ Invite your wife into the process.
When the timing feels right, let her know you want to answer a few questions together about your marriage. Keep it relaxed and pressure free.
4⃣ Make room for whatever comes up next.
These questions are meant to open conversation, not contain it. Stay with what matters and let the discussion go where it needs to go.
🧠 Reflection Questions:
❓ What grade would you honestly give yourself as a husband this past year based on how you showed up emotionally and relationally?
❓ If your wife were grading the same year, what do you think she would say and why?
❓ As you move into the new year, have you actually decided the kind of husband you want to be or are you hoping it will work itself out?
