Millions of men struggle with premature ejaculation, but we RARELY talk about the reality of the struggle, and that's a problem. The impact on our lives and relationships can be massive and debilitating...

For example, men who regularly struggle with premature ejaculation might also experience:

• Low self-worth
• Low self-confidence
• High sexual shame
• High sexual anxiety
• Isolation
• Hopelessness
• Depression
• Porn addiction
• Other addictions as coping mechanisms...

IN THIS EPISODE...
I'm joined by my friend Banks, who is currently struggling with premature ejaculation. We decided to have a raw and vulnerable conversation about this specifically for the podcast - because we thought it could be a great service to men and their partners around the world.

It's extremely rare to hear two men talk openly about struggles like this... and you'll hear the vulnerability and tenderness when you listen.

Thank you Banks for doing this. I'm grateful, and I can't fully imagine the potential fear and/or discomfort that might be present when choosing to speak openly and publicly about an active challenge like this. THANK YOU!

OUR FOLLOW-UP INTERVIEW WILL HAPPEN IN 10-12 WEEKS
As an exchange for having these conversations, I've given Banks enrollment in the current round of my Orgasmic Mastery Course. It's a 10-week journey for men to completely overcome premature ejaculation, master their sexual energy and thrive - so they can create the sex lives (and entire lives) that they want.

In 10-12 weeks, after Banks goes through this course, we're going to have an honest follow-up conversation to see how (and if) anything has changed. My belief and hope is that things will massively change for him over these next 10 weeks - IF he does the practices and exercises in the course. It's always up to the man to create the change he wants.

Time will tell... :D

Banks is one if the Co-Founders of the New Moon Brotherhood: a community of men that gather on the new moon to honor the darkest night of the month, and the darkness within. They provide a brave space for men to open their hearts in the spirit of brotherhood, helping  men turn inward to open to their power rather than enforcing power over others.

In our conversation, Banks referenced a TEDx video that talked about the power of self-pleasuring in front of a mirror. The talk was given by Emily Nagoski, and you can check it out here: Confidence and Joy are the Keys to a Great Sex Life. 

IT IS POSSIBLE TO OVERCOME PREMATURE EJACULATION!
Just a quick note of encouragement - it is 100% possible to cure premature ejaculation naturally and have the sex life you want. It just takes consistent effort over time. Reach out if you need help.

It takes 66 days to form a habit...  and you'll need strong self-discipline and willpower to do it. The problem is most of us are killing our ability to have strong willpower. How? Willpower is a FINITE resource, and if we don't take good care of our physical, emotional and spiritual health, our willpower reserves disappear.

• Crappy lifestyle = low willpower.
• Low willpower = bad habits.
• Bad habits = low success.
• Low success in life = you can imagine.

*Your life right now is the result of the thousands of tiny decisions and habits you've made up until this point. Your life 1 year from now will be the direct result of all the habits and decisions you make between now and then. CHOOSE WISELY!

---------------------

THIS EPISODE IS THE END OF SEASON 1!
And I want to say thank you to everyone who has tuned in so far. This has been an awesome journey, and to be real, it has taken a lot more time and energy than I thought it would. I've needed to take some time to reflect on the previous episodes - to figure out how I want to move forward.

Happy to say that this podcast will continue, but I'm only going to create new episodes when true inspiration hits. I'm not going to share episodes weekly just for the sake of being on a production schedule. And that being said...

The next episode is pretty wild (at least I bet you've never heard anything like it before).

---------------------

THE NEXT EPISODE...
The first episode of season 2 will be VERY unique & raw. It's a vulnerable conversation with a friend of mine who's currently struggling with premature ejaculation (and all the shame, pain and identity issues that come with it).

Most men feel alone with this... but the truth is millions of men are silently struggling. And when we don't talk about it, when we push things down, we're actually hurting ourselves - and hurting our ability to create and have the sex lives we want.

It's incredibly rare to hear two men having a real, down to earth conversation about challenges in the sexual realms...

We decided to record our conversation to shine light on the reality of the struggle, and I think we all need to hear this.  Check out the next episode, and let me know what you think.

Thank you!

Mushrooms and plants can be our allies to help us thrive in a society that doesn’t support optimal health. The philosophy and magic of Daoist tonic herbalism is here to help - with herbs for better sex, and herbs for a better life in general.

It’s not that… even though we do hit that topic really well in the last quarter of the episode. :)

This episode is a truly wild personal story that’s still hard to believe it actually happened. I chose sexual abundance over scarcity/anger, and it changed the entire outcome of my night. 

This story really is one of the wildest dating experiences I’ve had. One night in Asheville, I had to decide how I would respond to a stimulus that was potentially very challenging/triggering. Part of my system wanted to get angry, but I took a breath, paused, centered myself, and chose a different option.

The saying “freedom comes in the moment between stimulus and response” refers to the fact that you can always be at choice with how you respond to external stimuli. Instead of reacting with autopilot behavior, you can give yourself freedom by taking a pause after a challenging thing happens. In that pause, you can CHOOSE how to react. Anger might not always be your best option. In this story, I chose something different…

And my choice turned into one of the most surprisingly delightful evenings I’ve had while being a single guy in the dating world. It’s still one of my favorite stories to tell too. I hope it’s thoroughly entertaining for you. :)

As always, if you like this episode, please share it with a friend!

Thank you.
