282: Let's Get Curious with Special Guest Jay Stringer


Listen Later

Why are we drawn toward behaviors we don’t truly want?

In this powerful conversation, Dr. Greg Miller sits down with author and therapist Jay Stringer, known for his groundbreaking work on unwanted sexual behavior and sexual addiction. Together they explore one of the most important principles in recovery: curiosity.

Rather than simply trying to stop behaviors like porn addiction, compulsive sexual behavior, or sexual acting out, this conversation invites a deeper question:

“Why do I do what I do?”

Jay Stringer shares how our fantasies, attractions, and behaviors are often messengers pointing to deeper stories, wounds, and unmet needs. When we approach these patterns with curiosity rather than shame, we begin to uncover the underlying narratives that shape our lives.

This conversation offers hope for those struggling with sex addiction, pornography addiction, or unwanted sexual behaviors, as well as partners navigating betrayal trauma. True transformation doesn’t come from suppression—it comes from understanding.

Recovery begins when we become curious about our story.
