The Porn to Purpose Podcast

In this episode of the Porn to Purpose podcast, I sit down with Coach Yeadon to have one of the most uncomfortable—but critical—conversations every man trapped in porn eventually faces: how to talk to your wife about porn. Let's be real—confessing this kind of struggle feels terrifying. You're afraid she'll be crushed. That you'll lose her trust—or worse, her love. But staying silent? That's already killing your marriage. Today, Coach Yeadon and I break down what that conversation actually looks like, why timing and honesty matter, and how to lead with truth rather than shame. If you're serious about healing and rebuilding intimacy, this episode will show you how to stop hiding and start communicating with the woman who deserves your full heart.   Top 10 Show Highlights: [00:40] – Matthew and Coach Yeadon open the episode with the emotional weight of bringing porn into a marriage.

[05:30] – The wrong time to tell her—and what emotional state you need to be in before you speak. [06:50] – How to avoid blame, shame-dumping, and defensiveness when coming clean. [08:20] – Why most wives aren't hurt just by porn—but by the betrayal of being lied to. [09:55] – What real accountability looks like after the conversation. [11:15] – Why “just telling her” isn't enough—you need a plan for recovery. [13:00] – How the Liberation Bootcamp helps men rebuild from the inside out—and lead with truth.

In today's episode of the "Porn to Purpose" podcast, I'm joined by Coach Yeadon as we dive into a question many of us have silently asked ourselves: “Why am I watching porn even when I'm not even horny?” This episode explores the deeper emotional drivers behind porn addiction—stress, anxiety, loneliness, fear, and emotional exhaustion—and why porn becomes our default coping mechanism. Together, we unpack the truth that porn use often has little to do with sex and everything to do with emotional avoidance. We look at how this habit develops, why it “almost works,” and how we've been misled into thinking we just have a high sex drive. The truth is, unmet emotional needs are what drive most compulsive behaviors. Yeadon and I also share practical tools and powerful mindset shifts to help you build the capacity to sit with discomfort, regulate your nervous system, and begin choosing healthier ways to meet your needs. Whether you're just starting out or deep in the work, this conversation offers real insight, emotional clarity, and an invitation to rise above old patterns.   Top 10 Show Highlights: [00:12] Matt and Yeadon open with the real question: “Why do I watch porn when I'm not even aroused?” [01:34] Breaking the myth: it's not about sex, it's about emotional pain and avoidance.
