Let's face it, men. There's a silent struggle many of us face, one that eats away at our relationships, our self-respect, and our ability to be present fathers and husbands: porn addiction. Yeadon Smith is a husband, father of four redheads, apartment buyer, mentor at My First Million In Multifamily, co-host of the "Porn to Purpose" podcast , and the Co-Founder of Live Oak Capital, a commercial real estate investment firm focusing on multifamily apartment properties, offering investment opportunities to private investors. Become the best husband and leader you can: www.thedadedge.com/mastermind Today, he steps into the light to share his raw and powerful journey of breaking free. This isn't a lecture; it's a real conversation with a guy who's been in the trenches and found his way out. Yeadon doesn't sugarcoat the awkward moments or the serious consequences of this addiction. He shares the triggers, the lies we tell ourselves, and the practical steps he took to reclaim his life after over 700 days of recovery. In this episode, you'll gain insight into: The insidious ways porn addiction takes root and escalates. The devastating impact it has on intimacy and trust in marriage. Concrete tools and strategies Yeadon implemented for lasting freedom. How to confront the shame and start the journey toward healing. The profound positive changes that recovery brings to fatherhood and manhood. Consider these realities: Neurological studies indicate that the reward pathways in the brain respond to pornography in ways similar to addictive substances. Relationship research consistently shows a strong negative correlation between pornography use and marital satisfaction. Personal accounts within recovery communities highlight the significant improvements in self-esteem and overall well-being after breaking free from porn addiction. If you're wrestling with this or care about someone who is, this episode offers a message of hope and a tangible path toward lasting freedom.   ---------------------------- Gentlemen, if you're ready to level up, don't miss The Forge: A Gathering of Men—an exclusive event created by leaders like Connor Beaton, Larry Hagner, Matt Beaudreau, and Ryan Michler to help you connect, grow, and become the best version of yourself.

Drawing from nature, he contrasts the virtuous, leadership-driven traits of lions with the deceptive, self-serving behaviors of hyenas. Through five key distinctions—leading vs. following, earning vs. taking, brotherhood vs. matriarchy, fearlessness vs. deceit, and protection vs. predation—Ryan challenges men to embody the lion's strength and integrity. With personal anecdotes and bold insights, he urges listeners to reject parasitic tendencies and pursue a legacy of righteous living.
