Shattering the Silence: Sexual Shame & the Hidden Struggle of Modern Men


Listen Later

There’s a certain problem that touches the core of men’s struggles, but it often flies under their radar. This problem sabotages intimacy, confidence, and connection, leaving only anxiety and depression in its wake.

I’m referring to sexual shame—and it’s something that happens to men both unconsciously and consciously. 

That’s why in this episode, I’m going to help you understand where sexual shame comes from, why it has persisted over centuries, and give you the roadmap to break free from these chains. 

Listen now. 

Show Highlights Include:

  • How sexual shame not only sabotages intimate moments, but also shatters your confidence, connection, and authenticity (2:00) 
  • This quick mindset shift is the first step towards overcoming your sexual shame (3:00) 
  • The weird way studying philosophy and ethical theory can wipe away the seeds of sexual shame inside you (8:29) 
  • 3 theories that explain why men feel sexual shame (and how understanding these theories helps you conquer your shame) (10:39) 
  • How religiously-induced sexual shame lingers in your psyche long after you leave the religion (and how to root it out from your subconscious completely) (18:55)
  • 4 ways sexual shame manifests in intimate relationships (24:58)
