192: 5 Core Skills You Need to Overcome Pornography For Good (pt. 1)
Thursday Apr 17, 2025
Thursday Apr 17, 2025
Struggling with porn use isn't about who you are—it's about the approach you've been using. Fighting urges after they appear is too late.
The key is learning skills to prevent the first domino from falling. When you handle what causes porn use before urges start, freedom becomes possible.
In this 3-part series, I'll cover skills to overcome porn use, rebuild relationships, and implement these changes effectively.
Today's episode shares five core skills for men to break free. For women listening, seeing your partner work on these will bring you peace.
Focus on what happens before the urge, not just on avoiding slips. True recovery means addressing what occurs five steps before temptation begins.

For therapy with Sam:
I will work with you for 12 weeks to help you eliminate pornography use and resolve the root cause so it doesn't come back.
If after the 12 weeks you haven’t fully overcome it, I’ll work with you for free until you do.
