Is your brain hijacked—and you don’t even know it?

In this powerful and eye-opening interview, Greg Denning sits down with Dr. Trish Leigh, brain expert and author, to expose the truth behind how pornography rewires the brain, destroys motivation, and sabotages relationships—especially for men.

With practical brain-based strategies and a deep understanding of neuroscience, Dr. Trish Leigh explains how porn addiction isn’t about morality—it’s about dopamine dependency and brain dysregulation.

She outlines the three types of porn addiction (classic, contemporary, and combined), how early exposure affects young men, and why regulating your brain is the first and most critical step toward freedom.

You’ll also learn how purpose and engagement in life are the ultimate antidotes to destructive behaviors—and how to begin rewiring your brain today.

Whether you’re a husband, father, or single man looking to reclaim your focus and rebuild your life, this episode will give you real hope and tools for transformation.

Key Takeaways:

• Pornography is a significant problem affecting many lives.
• Dr. Trish Lee's personal experience led her to study the effects of pornography.
• 95% of people between ages 8 and 85 consume porn, indicating a widespread issue.
• The age of first exposure to pornography is decreasing, now as young as 8 years old.
• Pornography consumption can lead to addiction and changes in brain chemistry.
• The impact of pornography extends to relationships, causing dysfunction and emotional disconnection.
• Men are increasingly experiencing erectile dysfunction linked to pornography use.
• Purpose and engagement in life can help combat the negative effects of pornography.
• Self-awareness is crucial for understanding the impact of pornography on behavior.
• Recovery involves unwiring, rewiring, and hardwiring healthy brain patterns.
