What can improv teach you about overcoming pornography? In this episode, coach Kat Jenkins shares how the principles of improv can be applied to quitting porn and navigating the challenges that come with it. Using rules from improv, she shows how you can change your responses, build trust with yourself, and create better outcomes in your journey.

Kat walks through nine core improv rules and explains how each can support progress. From saying yes and being a good listener to finding your team, taking up space, and understanding who holds the power in a situation, these strategies help can help you approach your urges with curiosity and intentionality rather than avoidance or shame.

You’ll learn how to experiment with these principles in your daily life, apply them to the patterns in your scenes with pornography, and build trust in your responses. This episode will help you use practical tools to handle urges and navigate difficult situations.
