The River of Misery has been coming up a lot recently on the podcast, so in this episode, I'm diving into this topic, how we use the River of Misery in Overcome Pornography for Good, and why this concept surprisingly makes quitting porn a lot easier.

Whatever you're trying to create in your life, you're going to face challenges and difficulties, and it won't be easy. Anyone who tells you otherwise is lying. At times, it will be miserable. The River of Misery doesn't sound great. However, it's all about accepting the misery so we can start moving through it.

Tune in this week to discover why understanding the River of Misery will help you quit viewing pornography and never go back to it. I'm sharing the thoughts that make the River of Misery difficult to cross, and showing you how to see the patterns that are keeping you stuck so you can begin working on them and make it to the other side.
