Are you a high achiever trying to do everything right? I dive deep into perfectionism today - not as a badge of honor, but as a core fear of not being enough that often masquerades as discipline and drive. As a perfectionist myself, I understand how this mindset can both motivate and harm us in our journey toward healing and growth.
This episode explores how perfectionism acts as a form of self-protection rather than self-improvement. I examine the ways our inner oppressor develops from external voices we internalized growing up, whether from parents, school systems, or traumatic experiences that made us feel unsafe making mistakes.

Do you find yourself chasing a sense of worth that always feels just out of reach? Many of us hold ourselves hostage with our inner critic, especially when it comes to overcoming pornography. I see this pattern frequently in coaching sessions where clients believe they can't experience happiness or peace until they've "earned it" through extended periods without viewing porn.
In this episode, I explore how the inner critic often mimics external voices from our past - parents, religious leaders, and societal norms. I share a four-step approach to working with your inner critic that allows you to move from a place of shame to one of self-compassion and authentic change.

What does it truly mean to be a provider as a man? For many people, masculine worth has been tightly linked to financial provision—the bigger the salary, the more successful the man. This narrow definition has created wounds that affect relationships, communities, and sense of self-worth.
It's time we expand our understanding of masculine power. The traditional model of "providing equals money" often leads to competitive rather than collaborative energy, especially in relationships. When a man's entire identity becomes wrapped up in his earning potential, he misses opportunities to provide what families and communities truly need.

Are you constantly looking backward instead of forward? In this episode, I dive into the powerful distinction between being past-focused versus future-focused, and how this single shift can completely transform your approach to overcoming pornography.
When you're stuck in past-focused thinking, you limit yourself to what you've already accomplished. By defining yourself by who you want to become rather than who you've been, you can create the momentum needed to finally break free from pornography.
