Episode 181: Ask a Coach: The It’s-Not-Working Mentality
Have you ever heard yourself say something along the lines of, “This isn’t working for me. It doesn’t matter what I do, I’m in the same place I started?”
Have you ever heard yourself say something along the lines of, “This isn’t working for me. It doesn’t matter what I do, I’m in the same place I started?”
“I’m feeling stuck, what do I do?” This is a variation of a question we hear from lots of people at different stages of their journey. The thought, “I’m stuck,” is one all of us indulge in when the path ahead feels uncertain and unknown, but the truth is you’re not stuck and Coach Kat is here to show you why.
One of the main missions behind my program and podcast is inclusivity. That’s why, more often than not, you’ll hear me speaking out about the harmful systems that exist in religious spheres. Whether it’s purity culture or sexual shame, there are certain ideas that really hurt people when they’re trying to quit porn. However, that doesn’t mean I’m anti-religion or anti-spirituality.
Have you ever found yourself feeling desensitized to porn and the process of trying to quit? You feel miserable, exhausted, and you simply just don’t care anymore. Maybe you feel numb viewing porn where you don’t feel good about it, but you also don’t feel bad or experience deep shame either.
