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?” Coach Kat is on the show this week to address the it’s-not-working mentality, where you feel stuck and like nothing has changed. Maybe it feels like you’ve been doing the work for months, only to keep viewing porn. Perhaps this plateau is tempting you to give up, but the truth is the breakthrough you’re looking for is right around the corner. Listen in this week as Coach Kat shows you how the it’s-not-working mentality might be showing up for you, and why you shouldn’t give up at this point. You’ll hear why the work you’re currently doing isn’t going to waste, even if it feels like it, and how we know that the magic of change is inevitable if you don’t give up on yourself.

Episode 186: Working Backwards

Are you tired of falling back into old patterns on your journey to quitting porn? Buffering, as I call it in my world, describes the activities we engage in to escape uncomfortable emotions we might be experiencing, which can look like anything from viewing porn to overeating or overspending. The working backwards process is all about figuring out what you’re buffering from. The value lies in going further back than you might typically be used to, to get to the root of why you self-sabotaged. By uncovering the root cause of your self-sabotage, you unlock the keys to building lasting change. Join me this week as I walk you through the keys to using the working backwards process effectively, and share an example from my own life of how I use this technique to understand myself better and replace self-judgment with self-compassion. If you’re ready to do this work and start practicing unconditional commitment towards quitting your porn habit, sign up to work with me!
