In this Q&A episode, Coach Frank Rich is joined by Coach Arnold, Head Coach inside The Rebuilt Man Brotherhood, to answer real questions submitted by men who are actively working to break free from porn addiction and rebuild their lives.
This conversation goes far beyond tactics.
Frank and Arnold address two deeply personal struggles that silently keep many men stuck:
• Trying to change others instead of changing yourself
• Carrying guilt, anxiety, and responsibility for people you're no longer meant to carry
If you're growing, evolving, and starting to feel resistance from relationships around you — this episode will hit home.
Questions Answered in This Episode
1️⃣ "My partner and I watch porn together and don't see a problem with it. How should I respond?"
Frank breaks down why it's not your job to convince anyone they have a problem and how trying to do so often drains your energy and pulls you back into old patterns.
Coach Arnold adds a neuroscience-based perspective, explaining how pairing porn with intimacy can create dangerous conditioning loops in the nervous system. Over time, this can lead to dependency, sexual dysfunction, and the inability to perform without external stimulation.
Key takeaway:
Real change doesn't come from arguments.
It comes from identity, boundaries, and embodied transformation.
2️⃣ "How do I break free from the savior / rescuer / caretaker mentality while still serving my family?"
This question opens the door to a powerful discussion on people-pleasing, guilt, and upper-limit problems, especially with extended family.
Frank draws a clear line between:
• Being a protector and provider inside your home
• Being emotionally controlled by guilt outside your home
When a man commits to growth, old family dynamics can pull him back into past identities — often becoming a hidden trigger for relapse.
Coach Arnold explains how men unconsciously self-sabotage success to avoid outgrowing others, and why boundaries aren't selfish — they're necessary.
Key takeaway:
You don't prove growth with words.
You live it and let others respond how they choose.
