Episode 177: Ask a Coach: “What if Something Is Seriously Wrong with Me?”

June 03, 20242 min read

If you're a regular listener, you'll be familiar with the message that there's nothing wrong with you if you feel the urge to view porn. However, if you've been working on quitting porn for a long time but still keep viewing pornography, you might be asking, "What if there really is something wrong with me?"

There are a few things we need to unpack in order to answer this question in a productive way. So if you have been trying to quit but you're still turning to pornography, and you're starting to worry that something really is wrong with you, this episode is for you.

Tune in this week to discover how the sentence, "There's something wrong with me…" is actually stopping you from making progress. This is a limiting belief that keeps you stuck, and you'll learn how to replace this limiting, judgmental sentence with something way more useful instead. 

Also, I will be doing a bonus Q&A episode on the topics we've been discussing on the podcast recently, so if you would like me to answer your questions or comment on your thoughts, please send them to [email protected].
