Episode 142: Ask a Coach: The Shame of Slipping Up

Episode 142: Ask a Coach: The Shame of Slipping Up

October 02, 20232 min read

We are currently on a podcast season break and regular podcasting will resume January 1st 2024! While we’re on a hiatus, we are still going to be bringing you brand new content every single week by sharing an Ask a Coach Q&A from me or one of our coaches inside Overcome Pornography for Good.

The first question from Ask a Coach I’ll be answering on this week’s episode is all about processing the shame that comes from feeling like you’ve made progress and checked all the boxes, and yet, you’ve still slipped up and viewed porn. 

Listen in today to hear my answer to the question of slipping up and processing the shame that comes from feeling like you’ve failed. I’m showing you why slipping up doesn’t mean you’re not progressing, and the importance of not discounting the work you’re doing, even if it isn’t manifesting right away.
