Episode show notes:

Most men think they’re failing because they’re not strong enough, disciplined enough, or spiritual enough to stop watching porn.

But what if the real problem isn’t you — it’s the process you’re using?

In this episode, I break down 5 key reasons why men stay stuck in cycles of porn addiction — and how to finally break free. Whether you’re trying to quit pornography yourself or you’re a wife wanting to understand why he keeps falling back into it, this episode will help you get clarity.

We’ll walk through:

  • Why most men don’t actually know what to do to find freedom from porn

  • What a skill gap looks like when it comes to rebuilding self-worth and emotional control

  • Why identifying real pornography triggers (not just surface-level ones) matters

  • How motivation shifts when the pressure to “never mess up” gets too high

  • What hidden blockers (like shame or relationship disconnection) often sabotage progress

    You’ll hear real stories from men I’ve coached, and I’ll give you clear tools to apply if you want real porn addiction recovery — not just white-knuckle sobriety.

    This episode is especially helpful for men who feel stuck, and for wives who live in fear that “it’ll just come back one day.” You’ll see how the solution isn’t more control or hypervigilance — it’s about building the skills and clarity that lead to long-term relapse prevention.

    If you’re ready to overcome porn urges, understand the root cause of pornography addiction, and feel confident in your growth — this episode is for you.
