What if porn addiction recovery feels painful not because you're failing—but because the way you've been taught to understand addiction is fundamentally flawed?For many men, trying to quit porn doesn't feel empowering. It feels humiliating. It feels like staring straight at everything you believe is broken, defective, or dangerous about you.I know this feeling personally—because I lived it for years.The harder I tried to overcome porn addiction, the worse I felt about myself. Recovery became a reminder of shame instead of a path toward healing. And eventually, it felt easier to numb out than to keep confronting the belief that I was fundamentally flawed.In this episode of No More Desire, I challenge one of the most destructive ideas in modern porn addiction recovery: that addiction means you are bad, weak, or unworthy.Because what if porn addiction isn't proof that something is wrong with you—but evidence that good parts of you were forced into extreme roles?In this conversation, I break down why shame-based recovery backfires, how porn addiction is deeply tied to self-worth and the nervous system, and why self-judgment keeps men stuck in the very cycle they're trying to escape.We explore the psychology and neuroscience behind porn addiction, including how shame dysregulates the nervous system and intensifies cravings, why dopamine-driven behaviors aren't about pleasure but unmet emotional needs, and how addiction often functions as a misguided attempt at connection, comfort, and significance.Using a parts-work framework grounded in psychology, I explain how healthy inner parts—like the desire for comfort, adventure, rest, and meaning—can become distorted when they're suppressed or ignored. Porn addiction, in this light, isn't about moral failure. It's about good parts in bad roles.You'll also learn why simply getting sober doesn't automatically heal shame, why many men remain unhappy even after quitting porn, and how waiting to feel “worthy” before living your life keeps addiction relevant.This episode offers a different path forward—one rooted in self-leadership rather than self-hatred.If you're trying to quit porn but feel exhausted, ashamed, or stuck in an inner war, this episode will help you reframe your struggle and begin healing without hating yourself.Porn addiction recovery without shame isn't about excusing behavior. It's about understanding it deeply enough that real, lasting change becomes possible.Link to Blog Article for this EpisodeIf you're ready to build the mindset and lifestyle that lead to long-term freedom from porn addiction, join the No More Desire free online community and connect with men who are committed to real recovery.

Most men believe porn addiction is driven by lust, temptation, or a lack of discipline.But what if that's not the real problem?In this episode of No More Desire, I challenge one of the most common—and damaging—assumptions in porn addiction recovery: that the part of you that turns to porn is bad, broken, or sinful.What I've discovered through my own recovery, and through working with men across the world, is this:Porn addiction often isn't about pleasure at all. It's about emotional self-soothing.There is a part of your mind—what I call the Peacemaker—that is trying to calm your nervous system, reduce stress, and give you relief. When you don't know how to truly rest, relax, or be present, this part looks for comfort wherever it can find it. For many men, porn becomes that coping mechanism.In this episode, I break down how porn cravings are often driven by stress, anxiety, emotional overload, and nervous system dysregulation, not sexual desire. I explain why willpower alone fails in porn addiction recovery—and what actually works instead.You'll learn how chronic pressure from high achievement, perfectionism, or anxiety quietly fuels relapse… and how the inner war between different parts of your mind keeps the cycle going.Most importantly, I'll teach you how to stop fighting yourself—and start leading yourself.This episode is for men who are tired of white-knuckling sobriety… Men who keep relapsing despite trying harder…Men who want lasting porn addiction recovery rooted in mindset, lifestyle, and self-leadership.If you've ever wondered why you turn to porn when you're stressed, overwhelmed, or exhausted—this conversation will change how you see yourself and your recovery.You're not broken. You're not weak. And the part of you driving porn use doesn't need to be destroyed—it needs to be retrained.If you want to go deeper into this work, I invite you to join the No More Desire Brotherhood, where men support each other in real, practical recovery.

Is it possible to quit porn by changing your beliefs?Can you overcome porn addiction—not through willpower or positive thinking—but by going deeper into the painful emotions and unconscious beliefs that actually drive the habit?In this episode, I challenge the popular idea that you can “just believe differently” or manifest your way out of porn addiction. While mindset does matter, most advice about belief change misses a crucial step—and that missing step is the reason so many men keep relapsing despite doing “everything right.”Porn addiction is not just a behavior problem. It's not even just a habit problem.At its core, porn addiction is driven by unconscious beliefs, emotional conditioning, and nervous system patterns that were formed long before porn ever entered the picture.In this episode, I walk you through a real-life case study of a client (we'll call him Joseph) who struggled with porn addiction for nearly 20 years—and is now over three months sober for the first time since he was a child. What changed wasn't his willpower. It wasn't positive affirmations. It was the way he learned to work with painful emotions, triggers, and deeply rooted beliefs like shame, defectiveness, fear, and unworthiness.I also break down the step-by-step belief-release process Joseph used—drawing from Internal Family Systems (IFS), parts work, emotional mindfulness, somatic psychology, and nervous system regulation—to release old beliefs and allow new, healthier beliefs to take root naturally.We'll explore the psychology and neuroscience behind why this approach works, including:Implicit (unconscious) beliefs and emotional memoryWhy beliefs live in the body, not just the intellectMemory reconsolidation and why old beliefs must be activated before they can changePrediction error and how self-efficacy is built through lived experienceWhy acceptance—not force—is the key to lasting porn addiction recoveryThis episode is for you if:You're trying to quit porn but keep relapsingYou feel trapped by shame, fear, or emotional overwhelmYou've done therapy, programs, or accountability—but something still feels missingYou want a deeper, more compassionate, neuroscience-backed approach to recoveryThis is not a quick fix. It's not a magic wand. But it is a grounded, psychological and neurological path toward real freedom—one that integrates emotional healing, nervous system regulation, and a healthier relationship with yourself.If you're ready to stop fighting your mind and start healing it, this episode will change the way you understand recovery.Link to Blog Article for this episodeIf you're looking for deeper support and real connection in recovery, I'm opening the No More Desire Brotherhood on January 15th.

What if you could create 8 long-form videos a day and over 100 pieces of content daily with just a few minutes of your own time? That's not a hypothetical — it's exactly what my guest, Julian Goldie, is doing using AI, systems, and some pretty bold experimentation. In this episode, we dig deep into AI avatars, content systems, SEO in the age of ChatGPT, and what authenticity even means anymore. I'll be honest — I have mixed feelings about some of this. But Julian brings a thoughtful, transparent approach that made me seriously rethink how AI might fit into a modern course business. Whether you're excited, skeptical, or somewhere in between, this conversation will definitely stretch how you think about content, scale, and leverage.

Most men think porn addiction is about lust, lack of discipline, or not wanting freedom badly enough.It's not.In this episode of the No More Desire Podcast, I sit down with Jordan Castille, a coach who works with men navigating pornography addiction, shame, and same-sex attraction, to have a conversation most recovery spaces still avoid.We talk about how bullying, rejection, and emotional trauma can shape a man's relationship with porn long before he ever understands what's happening inside him.For many men, porn addiction isn't driven by pleasure — it's driven by pain, isolation, and the deep belief that “something about me is wrong.”Jordan shares his personal story of growing up in a conservative faith environment, experiencing same-sex attraction, enduring bullying, and using porn as a way to cope with shame and loneliness. Together, we unpack how trauma wires the nervous system, how sexual desire becomes symbolic, and why trying to “just stop” porn use often backfires.This episode goes beyond surface-level advice and into the root causes of porn addiction, including identity confusion, emotional neglect, and the unmet need for belonging.We also explore how healing happens not through suppression, but through understanding, self-leadership, and healthy connection with other men.If you've ever felt broken, abnormal, or alone in your struggle with pornography addiction — this conversation will change how you see yourself.In this episode, we explore:Why porn addiction is often a trauma response, not a moral failureHow bullying, shame, and rejection shape compulsive porn useThe connection between trauma and porn addiction in menSame-sex attraction, identity, and pornography addictionWhy sexual triggers are signals, not enemiesHow shame and isolation fuel porn addiction relapse cyclesUsing triggers as trailheads for healing instead of fighting themMasculinity, belonging, and emotional healing for menHow parts work and nervous system regulation support recoveryA healthier, shame-free framework for overcoming porn addictionThis episode is for men who are tired of white-knuckling, tired of feeling defective, and ready to understand why porn has had such a hold on their lives — and how real, lasting porn addiction recovery actually works.You're not weak.You're not broken.And you're not alone.Explore more of Jordan's work at: https://www.castillecoaching.com/ Link to Blog Article for this EpisodeIf you're ready to build the mindset and lifestyle that lead to long-term freedom from porn addiction, visit NoMoreDesire.com and apply for my 1-on-1 Porn Addiction Recovery Coaching Program.

If you've ever said to yourself, “Porn ruined my life” — but still find yourself going back to it — this episode is for you.For years, I believed quitting porn was about discipline, willpower, and avoiding temptation. But what I eventually discovered — both in my own recovery and in my work with men — is that porn addiction isn't just about pleasure. It's about attachment. And often, it's an attachment not only to pleasure… but to pain.In this episode, I explore a side of porn addiction recovery that almost no one talks about: grieving your porn addiction.Whether you realize it or not, porn has likely been a relationship in your life — a companion you turned to for comfort, escape, connection, control, or relief from emotional pain. And when you try to quit porn without understanding what it's been doing for you emotionally, your nervous system resists. That's why porn cravings feel so powerful. That's why relapse feels inevitable. And that's why so many men stay stuck in shame-based cycles.We dive deep into the psychology and neuroscience of porn addiction, including:Why your brain can become attached to both pleasure and punishmentHow early emotional wounds and trauma shape porn useWhy your sexual fantasies aren't random — and what they reveal about unmet emotional needsHow attachment to familiarity (even painful familiarity) keeps porn addiction aliveWhy willpower alone fails — and what actually leads to lasting recoveryI also walk you through a step-by-step emotional process for grieving porn — not shaming it, not white-knuckling it, but understanding it — so you can finally leave it behind without fear, self-hatred, or constant relapse.If you're tired of fighting yourself… If you feel disconnected from your body, your relationships, or your purpose… If quitting porn feels harder than it “should”…You're not broken. And you're not weak.You may simply be trying to walk away from something your nervous system believes it still needs — without honoring the grief underneath it.This episode will help you understand:What porn has been symbolically trying to give youWhat you're afraid of losing if you let it goAnd how to meet those needs in ways that actually align with who you areThis is porn addiction recovery rooted in psychology, emotional healing, and compassion — not fear or control.Listen in, and let's talk about the real path to freedom.Link to Blog Article for this episodeIf you're looking for deeper support and real connection in recovery, I'm opening the No More Desire Brotherhood on January 15th.

"Why can't I stay hard?"It's one of the most painful, confusing, and silent questions men carry — and one that too many men are afraid to ask out loud.If you've ever lost your erection during sex, if you've ever felt performance anxiety take over your body, if you can get aroused with porn but struggle with a real partner, or if you've wondered whether porn addiction has rewired your brain and damaged your ability to connect —This episode is for you.In today's conversation, I sit down with Shay Doran, a men's coach who specializes in helping men overcome erectile dysfunction, sexual performance anxiety, and porn-related arousal issues. Shay has lived this struggle himself — and now helps men all over the world rebuild confidence, presence, and intimacy from the inside out.This is not a surface-level conversation.We go deep into the psychology of performance anxiety, the neuroscience of arousal, and the emotional patterns that keep men stuck in shame, overthinking, and disconnection.We talk about why erectile dysfunction in young men is becoming more common, why pills often fail to fix the real problem, and how porn conditioning quietly trains the brain away from real intimacy.But most importantly, we talk about how to heal.We talk honestly about masculinity, self-esteem, and how many men use porn as a way to prove to themselves that they're “still okay” — even while it slowly deepens the disconnection they're trying to escape.If you've ever thought, “What's wrong with me?”, if you've felt broken, ashamed, or afraid, this issue will ruin your relationship, and if you want real answers instead of generic advice This episode will meet you right where you are.You're not broken, your body isn't failing you, and this struggle doesn't define your worth as a man.It's a signal — and it can be healed.Check out Shay's Youtube at: https://www.youtube.com/@shay-doranInterested in taking Shays Performance Anxiety Quiz? : https://shay-doran.com/free-quiz/If you're looking for deeper support and real connection in recovery, I'm opening the No More Desire Brotherhood on January 15th.

You've probably heard it a thousand times: “Use AI or get left behind.” But if you're a course creator, that advice can feel like a trap, because the fastest way to “use AI” is also the fastest way to sound generic and lose your voice. In this episode, I sit down with Dan Cumberland, who helps founder-led brands scale with AI without losing their soul, and honestly, this conversation felt like a giant exhale. We dig into how to use AI in a way that keeps your content human, especially when it comes to marketing (the place most course creators get stuck). Dan shares a simple framework to help AI actually sound like you, plus practical examples of using AI inside your course experience to support students at a higher level, without turning your brand into “AI slop.” Watch the episode: https://youtu.be/inOBNS15RfQ Dan's Website: https://dancumberlandlabs.com/ Watch the Free Workshop: https://www.theonlinecourseguy.com/workshop Sign up for Jacques' Journal: https://www.theonlinecourseguy.com/Apply for Coaching: https://www.theonlinecourseguy.com/coachingFree Kajabi Course and 1 month Trial: http://everyclickkajabi.com/Free Skool Course and 14 day Trial: https://www.skool.com/refer?ref=c725cf8892fe42c8bb37dd7e5ffc2575Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theonlinecourseguy/Threads: https://www.threads.net/@theonlinecourseguyX: https://twitter.com/onlinecourseguy

Most men don't struggle with porn addiction because they lack discipline.They struggle because they were never taught how to understand, regulate, or work with their emotions.In this episode, I sit down with Rich Savoy—a coach, leader with Husband Material, and longtime mentor to men—to have one of the most honest conversations I've ever had about men, emotions, masculinity, and porn addiction recovery. We go beneath behavior and willpower and into the emotional and psychological roots that quietly keep men stuck in the cycle of shame, relapse, and self-criticism.If you've tried to quit porn and found yourself asking “Why do I keep going back?”—this episode will give you clarity, relief, and a new path forward.In this conversation, we explore:Why porn addiction is rarely about sex—and almost always about emotional painHow emotional suppression and shame fuel compulsive porn use in menThe difference between healthy masculinity and the “man box” most of us were raised inWhy willpower fails and emotional intelligence changes everythingHow Internal Family Systems (IFS) and parts work explain porn addiction at the rootWhy the part of you that turns to porn isn't broken—and what it's actually trying to protectWe also talk candidly about firefighter parts, shame cycles, emotional avoidance, and why many faith-based or performance-driven recovery approaches unintentionally make porn addiction worse.This episode is for men who are tired of fighting themselves.Men who want to overcome porn addiction without shame.Men who are ready to reclaim masculinity through presence, emotional awareness, and self-leadership—not suppression.If you've ever felt trapped between wanting to be strong and feeling deeply human at the same time, this conversation will resonate.Resources mentioned:Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapyNo Bad Parts by Dr. Richard SchwartzAltogether You by Jenna RiemersmaBoundaries for Your Soul by Kim MillerPodcasts and teachings from Drew Boa and Husband MaterialIf this episode helped you, I'd encourage you to listen with an open mind—and share it with a man who needs to hear that he's not broken, weak, or beyond hope.Porn addiction recovery is possible.And it starts with emotional healing.Explore more of Rich's work at:https://www.husbandmaterial.com/Link to Blog Article for this EpisodeIf you're ready to build the mindset and lifestyle that lead to long-term freedom from porn addiction, visit NoMoreDesire.com and apply for my 1-on-1 Porn Addiction Recovery Coaching Program.

When I first started building a real recovery lifestyle, I believed the answer to breaking porn addiction was more control — more discipline, more structure, more “push harder.”But the truth is, that mindset only kept me trapped in dopamine overload, emotional numbness, and a constant battle against myself.In this episode, I sit down with my friend Jeremy Lipkowitz — former Buddhist monk, mindfulness teacher, and founder of The Unhooked Academy — to explore a radically different, science-backed path to freedom from porn addiction. Together, we break down how chronic stimulation from smartphones, social media, and porn fragments your attention, dysregulates your nervous system, and keeps you from feeling present, alive, and connected to the people you love.We dive into the neuroscience behind dopamine dysregulation, the psychology of shame and perfectionism, and the emotional patterns that keep men locked in compulsive behavior. I share what happened during my own 30-day presence challenge — how putting my phone away transformed my marriage, my mental clarity, and my sense of identity — and why learning to cultivate presence, embodiment, and noble pleasure is essential to losing your desire for porn.This conversation blends neuroscience, mindfulness, masculine leadership, and real emotional healing to show you how to rewire your brain, regulate your emotions, and build a recovery mindset defined by presence, purpose, and genuine internal peace.In This Episode, We Explore: • Why willpower and white-knuckling fail — and how awareness and emotional regulation create real freedom from porn addiction • How dopamine overload from technology and porn trains your brain for distraction, restlessness, and chronic dissatisfaction • The difference between base pleasures and noble pleasures — and how earned dopamine rebuilds identity and direction • How shame, fear, and perfectionism fuel addiction — and how to transform painful emotions instead of escaping them • The role of mindfulness, presence, and embodiment in healing the nervous system and rewiring cravings • Why smartphone addiction and porn addiction are neurologically intertwined — and how a simple phone detox can reset your brain • How relational connection, vulnerability, and community become powerful antidotes to cravings and isolation • Practical methods to rewire your brain through mindfulness, intentional routines, and recovery-focused habitsIf you've been fighting yourself in recovery,  this conversation will help you make peace with your mind, reconnect with your body, and build a lifestyle where porn no longer has a pull on you.You don't overcome porn addiction by forcing yourself to be stronger. You overcome it by becoming more present, more aware, and more connected to what truly brings you life.Link to the Blog Article for This Episode If you're ready to build the mindset and lifestyle that lead to long-term freedom from porn addiction, visit NoMoreDesire.com and apply for my 1-on-1 Porn Addiction Recovery Coaching Program.

Send us a textListen if you self-sabotageIf you've ever wondered why you keep falling into the same habits, the same blocks, or the same frustrating cycles, this episode is going to hit home. I'm diving deep into self-sabotage (the quiet, often unconscious ways you get in your own way and hold yourself back from the life, relationships, success, and happiness you're trying to create)You'll hear why these repeat patterns show up again and again, even when you know what you “should” be doing, and even when you genuinely want things to change. We explore the inner mechanisms that trigger self-sabotage, the hidden beliefs that keep you stuck, and the subtle ways your mind tries to protect you by doing the opposite of what you need.And because awareness is only the first step, this episode also includes a powerful guided exercise designed to help you interrupt these patterns and start shifting them in real time. If you're tired of being the one thing standing between you and your goals… if you're ready to understand why you keep repeating the same self-sabotaging behaviours… and if you want a practical tool you can use anytime you feel yourself slipping back into old patterns - you'll want to listen all the way through.Support the showBOOK YOU 90 minute CLARITY CALL Other useful links: Free Workshop: 5-Step therapy Framework for Breaking Cycles Book a Free consult call with me (for online therapy & coaching) Follow Carly Ann on Instagram To discuss how I can support your team or audience, email: carly@carly-ann.co.uk

If you've ever wondered why you can't “just stop” watching porn—why you cycle through cravings, shame, self-promises, and relapse—this episode will change the way you see your struggle forever. Because the truth is, porn addiction is not a willpower problem. It's a nervous system problem.In this episode, I'm joined by my friend and colleague Chris Chandler, a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT), trauma specialist, and one of the most grounded, brilliant men I know in the world of addiction neuroscience, trauma healing, and nervous system regulation. Together, we break down the deep biological, emotional, and spiritual roots of pornography addiction and why most men stay stuck for years without ever understanding why.We explore polyvagal theory, the fight-flight-freeze response, and how sympathetic activation, dorsal vagal shutdown, and ventral vagal connection shape everything—from your cravings and emotional triggers to your patterns of withdrawal, anxiety, and relational disconnection.This isn't just another conversation about “trying harder.”This is about learning how your body, brain, and nervous system actually work—and how to regulate yourself in moments of anxiety, craving, emotional pain, conflict, and stress.We discuss practical strategies for recovery, including:Vagus nerve regulationBreathwork for anxietyEmbodiment practices that increase emotional presenceIFS (Internal Family Systems) for understanding your protective partsHealthy boundaries and relational repairMindfulness for addictionAnd why the opposite of addiction is connection, not sobrietyIf you're ready to stop feeling defeated…If you're ready to stop fighting your body and start understanding it…If you're ready to step into grounded masculinity, emotional depth, and real long-term recovery…Explore more of Chris's work at: https://www.breathtobones.com/Learn more about his program at: https://www.joinrelay.app/Link to Blog Article for this EpisodeIf you're ready to build the mindset and lifestyle that lead to long-term freedom from porn addiction, visit NoMoreDesire.com and apply for my 1-on-1 Porn Addiction Recovery Coaching Program.

Summary

If you've ever wondered why you feel numb, disconnected, or unable to access the full depth of your emotions—this episode may hit closer to home than anything you've heard before.In today's episode, I dig into one of the most overlooked factors in porn addiction recovery: your relationship with your physical body. We talk about why so many men feel emotionally flat, why empathy feels harder than it should, and why your motivation and sense of direction can feel so distant—even when you're trying your best to change.And the truth is not what most of us were taught.Porn addiction isn't just a “mind” problem.It's not just a spiritual issue.It's not even primarily about willpower.Porn addiction is deeply tied to emotional numbness—numbness created by years of disconnecting from your body.Neuroscience is very clear: when your insula (the brain's interoception center) becomes weakened through compulsive behaviors, overstimulation, and technology addiction, your ability to feel, connect, empathize, and motivate yourself declines dramatically.In other words:The less connected you are to your body, the easier it is to get stuck in porn. And the more embodied you become, the easier recovery becomes.I also share my personal journey—how I unknowingly detached from my body through achievement addiction, overstimulation, and constant phone use… and how reconnecting with my body changed my emotional life, my marriage, and my recovery.This episode will help you understand:Why you feel numb—and how to reverse itWhy empathy feels hard—and how to get it backWhy porn cravings stay strong—and how embodiment dissolves themWhy your identity feels shaky—and how to anchor it againHow to restore the body–mind connection that drives true recoveryIf you're ready to experience real emotional presence, deeper connection with your wife, healthier masculinity, and the strength required to overcome porn addiction long-term, this episode is a must-listen.This is not about willpower. It's about embodiment. It's about reconnection. It's about becoming whole again.Listen now and learn how to feel again.Link to Blog Article for this EpisodeIf you're ready to build the mindset and lifestyle that lead to long-term freedom from porn addiction, visit NoMoreDesire.com and apply for my 1-on-1 Porn Addiction Recovery Coaching Program.

Send us a textUnderstanding self-esteem and recognising if you're anxiety is related to low self-worthIn this episode we will spend some quality time breaking down the most common signs of low self-esteem using the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale which is a trusted psychological tool for measuring a person's overall self-esteemRecognising low self-esteem is important because it helps you understand the root of how you think, feel, and behave. When you become aware of whether your self-esteem is strong, shaky, or inconsistent, you can start to understand why you react the way you do - why certain situations trigger you, why you feel anxious or stuck, or why certain patterns keep repeating - we need that if we want to change and strengthen self esteemI am Carly Ann, and I'm on a mission to bring the wisdom of therapy beyond the couch — helping people grow, connect, and thrive in life and love.

Ever feel like you're building a course based on what everyone else is doing instead of what actually fits your life and your students' needs? In this episode, I chat with speech coach Mike Pacchione—who's worked with the likes of Amy Porterfield and Donald Miller—about how he's built a high-impact, low-complexity program that prioritizes feedback and alignment over scale. We explore what it looks like to run a hybrid course, why he doesn't offer a standalone version, and how to design offers around what actually works for you.

Most men battling porn addiction think their problem is “lust,” “self-control,” or “not being disciplined enough.” But for millions of men, the real issue is something far deeper—and far more common—than they realize.In this powerful and eye-opening episode, I sit down with Dr. Doug Carpenter, licensed psychologist and author of the groundbreaking book Secret Shame, to uncover the hidden link between male sexual abuse, childhood sexual trauma, shame, and porn addiction.What Doug reveals in this conversation is staggering—and every man needs to hear it.For decades, men have been suffering in silence. Many grew up believing that what happened to them wasn't “real” abuse. Others felt that their body's response meant they “wanted it,” “caused it,” or that something was fundamentally wrong with them. Most never told anyone.But the truth is this:Male sexual trauma is far more common than reported—and its impact on a man's sexuality, masculinity, and identity is enormous.And for many, it becomes the hidden engine powering porn addiction, compulsive sexual behavior, PIED (porn-induced erectile dysfunction), and emotional avoidance in adulthood.In this episode, we unpack how early exposure, sexual imprinting, and shame wire the brain toward addictive behavior—and how men can finally begin to heal through neuroscience-backed practices, spiritual grounding, trauma-informed support, and masculine emotional leadership.This is not a heavy, dark episode. This is a hopeful one—filled with clarity, compassion, truth, and a real recovery roadmap.In This Episode, We Explore:Why one in six men have experienced some form of sexual abuse—and why most don't disclose for 25+ yearsHow childhood sexual trauma, early sexual exposure, and porn imprint the developing brainThe neuroscience behind compulsive sexual behavior and why willpower alone failsThe truth about sexual identity confusion and why it's the #1 side effect of male sexual abuseWhy your body's response during abuse does not define your sexuality, masculinity, or identityHow shame becomes the fuel source for porn addictionThe survivor's journey from victim → survivor → thriverHow to start healing sexual shame and rebuilding healthy masculinityWhy trauma-informed therapy and brotherhood are essential for overcoming pornWhat real recovery looks like when men stop fighting themselves and start understanding themselvesExplore more of Doug's work at HusbandMaterial.com.Want to dive deeper into his insights?

Do you ever feel like your mind just won't stop racing?Like you're constantly doing—working, scrolling, thinking, striving—but rarely being present?If you've ever felt trapped in busyness, anxiety, or mental chaos, this episode might be one of the most important you'll ever hear.In this solo episode, I explore one of the most overlooked truths about porn addiction recovery: your addiction isn't just about sexual compulsion—it's about disconnection. A restless, overstimulated brain craves relief. Porn becomes the shortcut.But the real problem runs deeper.Our constant distraction, productivity obsession, and dopamine overload keep us stuck in the same cycle of craving and shame.When your brain never stops seeking stimulation, it can't access stillness, focus, or peace. And that lack of presence doesn't just feed addiction—it weakens your relationships, your masculinity, and your spiritual connection.In this episode, I share:The neuroscience behind mental chaos and why an underactive prefrontal cortex keeps you craving porn.The hidden ways your phone, productivity, and social media feed the same dopamine system as pornography.How to break free from attention fragmentation and rewire your brain for calm focus.A 30-Day Challenge to restore balance between doing and being—and how this shift can heal your mind, your marriage, and your soul.Practical mindfulness and embodiment tools to ground your masculine energy and rebuild self-leadership.Why your relationship with stillness determines your ability to connect—with yourself, with others, and with God.I'll also share my own recent experience detoxing from technology—what it revealed about my mind, my family, and the subtle addictions hiding behind constant busyness.If you're ready to go beyond willpower and understand the psychology, neuroscience, and spirituality of true freedom, this episode will help you build the presence and balance you've been missing.Because overcoming porn addiction isn't just about quitting a habit—it's about retraining your brain to live differently.It's time to stop running and start being.Link to Blog Article for this EpisodeIf you're ready to build the mindset and lifestyle that lead to long-term freedom from porn addiction, visit NoMoreDesire.com and apply for my 1-on-1 Porn Addiction Recovery Coaching Program.

What if the real reason you can't stop watching porn… isn't porn itself?In this episode of the No More Desire Podcast, I dive deep into the hidden connection between tech addiction, dopamine, and porn addiction recovery — and why constant distraction may be the true enemy of your freedom.We live in a world built to hijack your attention. From smartphones and social media to the endless scroll of entertainment, every digital interaction trains your brain for instant gratification. Over time, this dopamine overload rewires your reward system, weakens your self-control, and makes you more vulnerable to pornography addiction.But here's the truth: your brain isn't broken. It's just conditioned. And what's been conditioned can be reconditioned.In this powerful, science-backed, spiritually grounded conversation, I'll walk you through:The neuroscience of dopamine and addiction — how tech overstimulation leads to desensitization and “hypofrontality,” weakening your prefrontal cortex (the part of your brain responsible for focus and discipline).The psychology of distraction — how “attentional fragmentation” leaves men restless, unfocused, and disconnected from their purpose.The real link between porn addiction and technology addiction — and how both exploit the same reward circuitry in the brain.Ancient wisdom and modern mindfulness — what Jesus, the Buddha, and modern neuroscience all agree on: the power of stillness, presence, and self-awareness to rewire the addicted brain.Practical methods for recovery — including my 30-Day Presence Challenge to help you regain control of your attention, rebuild your dopamine balance, and reconnect with real life and real people.This episode is a call to arms for men who are tired of distractions running their lives. It's about replacing compulsive stimulation with conscious connection — with your body, your relationships, and your higher purpose.Link to Blog Article for this EpisodeIf you're ready to build the mindset and lifestyle that lead to long-term freedom from porn addiction, visit NoMoreDesire.com and apply for my 1-on-1 Porn Addiction Recovery Coaching Program.

When I first began my recovery journey, I believed the answer to ending porn addiction was more control — more willpower, more discipline, more “try harder.”But the truth is, that mindset only deepened my shame and made me fight harder against myself.In this episode, I sit down with Jeremy Lipkowitz — a former Buddhist monk, mindfulness teacher, and founder of The Unhooked Academy — to explore a radically different path to freedom from porn addiction.We dive deep into the power of mindfulness and self-compassion as tools to overcome shame, heal the mind, and rewire the brain for peace and presence. This conversation bridges neuroscience, psychology, and Buddhist philosophy, showing you how mindfulness can create real, lasting change from the inside out.

What if you could stop guessing about your online course funnel—and just build the one that actually sells? In this episode, I'm joined once again by John Ainsworth of Data Driven Marketing. John's tested countless funnels across real online course businesses and breaks down the three that are consistently working right now. Whether you're new to funnels or looking to fine-tune your current setup, this conversation is packed with practical, up-to-date strategies to help you convert more students. We also dive into why he rarely uses webinar funnels with clients (even though he loves them), what works better for lower-priced courses, and how high-ticket coaching offers can dramatically increase revenue—even in niches like banjo or piano. If you're feeling stuck on the funnel front, this episode will help you identify what to build next based on your price point and audience size.
