The Naked
Marriage
New Marriage. Same Wife.
An 8-week, one-on-one experience for husbands ready to end the drift and rediscover friendship, intimacy, and affection with the woman they married.
Hey, I’m Ryan.
Why I started this…
A man doesn’t wake up one morning and decide he wants a collapsing marriage. Nor does he wake up thinking he needs marriage coaching, therapy, or someone to help him figure out his wife.
Men are pretty simple creatures.
We want friendship, intimacy, affection, and a passionate, relatively drama-free love with the woman we married.
I wanted that too.
But somewhere between raising three daughters, building businesses, and seventeen years of marriage, my wife and I began drifting.
The friendship faded. The tension grew. Her silence became louder than her shouting.
We loved each other, but something wasn’t working.
And eventually, I had to get honest about a few things.
The reality that we’d built a beautiful life together.
The reality that we’d threatened each other with divorce.
And the reality that my marriage had become a compass, pointing toward the parts of my own soul that needed attention.
That last reality was the hardest to face.
Because I began to understand something I didn’t particularly want to admit.
I couldn’t create a different marriage while continuing to show up as the same man.
That realization, along with my doctoral research and more than fifteen years of working with men, became the foundation of The Naked Marriage.
Not about fixing your wife or becoming the perfect husband.
But discovering what’s possible when you begin changing your part in the marriage you’ve created.
If you’re thinking…
“But What If We’ve Drifted Too Far?”
Whether you’re living together but miles apart, separated, or already navigating divorce, you’re not the only man who’s wondered if things could ever be different.
I was honestly blown away by how quickly we repaired the rupture between my wife and me. Shrinking the drift and cultivating intimacy doesn’t have to be as hard as you might think. It can be simple and easy once you do the right work in your heart and life as a husband.
Ryan’s work was the deepest, most transformative work of my life. And this is coming from someone who’s done Landmark & Tony Robbins.
A true visionary in his field, a master of his craft, and an incredible healer, guide, and mentor. This work will transform your marriage and soul.

Meet Ryan Wegenast
I’m a husband of seventeen years, father of three daughters, doctoral researcher, and someone who’s spent more than fifteen years helping men navigate the complicated parts of being human.
My work brings together philosophy, depth psychology, and real-life experience—including the challenges within my own marriage.
I’ve learned that a drifting marriage isn’t always just about communication, conflict, or intimacy. Sometimes it’s about the man we’ve become, the parts of ourselves we’ve lost, and what we’re unwilling to face.
That’s the heart of The Naked Marriage.
Helping husbands understand themselves, take responsibility for their part, and begin creating a different relationship with the woman they married.
