Stress

Sexual Drive

Is intense sexual drive overwhelming your desire to quit porn? Do you feel at the effect of it, and long to be in the driver's seat? In this episode, we take a look at the science of sexual drive. We consider what that reveals about our path to quitting.

Pain

Stress

Stress is the ultimate evil, right? The cause of all our problems... or so we've been told. But where did that narrative actually come from? Was it science, or pseudoscience? What if the secret to a more full, happy life isn't the successful avoidance of stress, but rather, the cultivation of the capability to face it head on without fear? If so, how do we start to manage stress in a way that isn't so... stressful?

Breaking the Rules

We have a lot of rules in our society. Rules around sex. Rules around porn. Often, other people created the rules and we just kind of went along with it. So how do we know when it's okay to change the rules? And whether it's safe to do so? Let's talk about rules that are meant to serve you rather than the other way around.

You may have heard that honesty is crucial for recovery. This episode clarifies how and why. Pessimism often masquerades as honesty, but it's not nearly as helpful as some would like to believe. I explain why. Also, hear examples of what a good and bad porn confession sounds like.
