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.
