Episode 201: The Grip of Shame and Apathy Unraveled
If you’ve ever struggled with feelings of shame, especially when trying to quit pornography, you know how destructive it can be. Shame can create a spiral that not only makes you feel like there’s something fundamentally wrong with you but also leads to a sense of apathy and hopelessness.
In this episode, I introduce a concept called the shame-apathy trap. This insidious cycle causes unnecessary pain and suffering, often without us even realizing it. I walk you through how it manifests in our lives and share actionable tips to help you break free.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re not doing enough to overcome pornography, or if apathy is creeping in and amplifying your shame, this episode is for you. I show you why trying to care more or do more isn’t the solution and where your focus truly needs to be instead.
