In this episode of The Inner Revolution Podcast, we dive into the hidden ways pornography impacts relationships long before anyone discovers the behavior. Even when kept secret, porn reshapes emotional connection, intimacy, and the unspoken dynamics between partners. With a mix of clinical insight and honest, straight talk, we break down how secrecy erodes trust, why partners sense disconnection early, and what couples can do to rebuild safety and intimacy. If you’ve ever wondered why things “feel off” in your relationship—or you’re trying to repair after betrayal—this episode gives you the clarity, language, and hope you need to start healing.

In the days of constantly comparing ourselves to others through an online presence, it can be hard to not love yourself for who you are.

We tend to overcomplicate addiction recovery. Addiction is not complicated; it requires consistency. Consistency in doing the small things day in and day out. Most people don't want to hear that, but it's the truth, and it's what works. In this episode, I talk about one place you can start:)
Can your self-worth change? Is it based on what you do? In this episode, I talk about the importance of self-worth in recovery. Buckle up!
When you think of eating a reeses, what happens? You jump on the train of thought and experience what it would be like to eat it. This all happens in a matter of milliseconds. This is why you start to salivate when thinking about eating your favorite foods. We are constantly jumping from train to train in our sea of thoughts.
In context of addiction, this means that we can always get off the train when it leads to a potential PMO. It starts with acceptance and acknowledgement:)
There is a misconception in the mental health world surrounding addiction. We tend to think that a specific amount of time without relapse is the end-all be-all with the addiction. However, recovery is a lifelong process. The brain and body will never forget what it was like to view pxrn when you were feeling stressed, sad, mad, etc. We need to treat recovery like our values. It is not a destination, it's a direction.
