In this episode, I sit down with Dan Johnson, creator of the PATH plan, who opens up about his decades-long struggle with pornography addiction. Dan shares his personal journey, from his first encounter with porn in seventh grade to a pivotal confession to his wife in 2019. 

He introduces his practical recovery tool, the PATH Plan — a simple four-step method designed to help men navigate the moment of temptation without shame or giving in to urges. Dan also highlights the importance of community, mental rehearsal, and having strong personal reasons to pursue freedom.
