In episode 232 of the Sober Vibes podcast, I welcome Jeremy Lipkowitz to the show, and we discuss porn addiction, overcoming shame, and what to do if your husband has a porn addiction. 

Jeremy opens up about his 15-year journey with porn addiction, beginning at age seven with a lingerie catalog and escalating to hours of daily online consumption by college. They unpack how porn rewires the brain, disrupts relationships, and becomes a hidden coping mechanism for emotional pain. Through his personal story and coaching expertise, Jeremy offers genuine, compassionate insight into how individuals can initiate the process of healing, recovery, and reconnection with themselves and others.

Whether you're personally affected, love someone who struggles, or are raising kids in this digital world, this conversation is a must-listen.

What you will learn:

• The three “A’s” that make porn addiction uniquely powerful: affordable, accessible, and anonymous
• How pornography addiction affects the brain, emotional health, and relationships
• What is betrayal trauma, and how does it affect the partners of porn addicts
• Why recovery is about mindfulness, connection, and healing, not willpower alone
• How to raise kids in a world where explicit content is just a swipe away
• Practical steps to start recovering from porn addiction or support a loved one who is

 Key Takeaways:

• Addiction often begins with early exposure and escalates over time with tech access
• Porn hijacks the brain’s dopamine system and creates a craving for novelty over intimacy
• Most porn addicts live a double life rooted in shame, secrecy, and emotional numbing
• Social media can act as a slippery slope toward pornography and compulsive behavior
• Healing involves community, mindfulness, nervous system regulation, and inner child work
