S3E12: #1 Most Effective Porn Recovery Formula

This episode is based on this post I wrote in our DeepClean private community (learn more about Inner Circle):

Last week I was working 1:1 with a client to help him pinpoint some wounds from his past.

The challenge?
He didn’t know what happened to cause the wounds.

He knew something was there — he has struggles today to prove it — but he just couldn’t pinpoint what happened.

And honestly?
I see this all the time.

Guys want to really dial in the trauma story. It makes sense… we want clarity. But let me remind you —

👉 It’s not totally necessary.

The focus of healing isn’t about perfectly remembering what happened. It’s about recognizing what still lives inside you.

  • The emotions you felt that never got processed (the ones you still wrestle with)

  • The thoughts you had that never got shared (the ones you still carry)

  • The needs you had that never got met (the ones you still seek to fill in unhealthy ways)

When you focus here, you may discover the full story — or maybe not.
Either way, you’re working directly with the part of trauma that can actually heal.

If you can name those 3 things — emotion, thought, and need — you now have real clarity on what you’re up against.

Then comes the good part: learning how to work through X emotion, Y thought, and Z longing.

That’s my super simple approach to recovery — and I love seeing how it changes men’s lives, time and time again. 💪


This episode is all about unpacking this idea and helping you make recovery simple!

Maybe you still feel stuck, not knowing how to apply this?

S3E11: Psalms- Expressing Your Pain Like David

Suppressing emotions is at the heart of what drives people to escape reality - we call this fantasy...

What if you could face reality with your Saviour? What if you had a grasp on your internal battles and let God fight for you?

One of the greatest weapons against suppression is journalling. And one of the greatest weapons against distance from God is a heart that wants to be known

This episode was inspired by a group call Shawn did where he had 15 men write their own psalm of lament...

4 Steps to writing a psalm:

- Questioning

- Complaint

- Petition for Help

- Statement of Confidence

To learn more about Shawns porn recovery coaching, hop on this free MasterClass


Helena was also moved by journalling in her journey. As a mom, a betrayed partner, one who went through pain and loss, this method of therapy was HUGE for her.


In this episode, you'll learn about

- How journalling helped us quit addiction, grow closer and move into new season

- How to read the psalms

- Vulnerability and trust

- Why men are desperate for expression and safety


If you're looking to get free from porn, its not a secret how to do that in the next 90 days. We have a very clear system and our new Inner Circle Brotherhood is only $2 a day

The Czech Republic has some staggering challenges when it comes to sexuality. Stats show us that they are top in the world in porn creation, sex trafficking, and some other difficult things to make sense of...

Pete also shares about his journey of recovery, going through 10 years of what doesnt work so he could finally find what does work. Now he spends all of his time making sure more people learn the truth and develop the tools that really work to say no to porn and get sober from sexual struggles.

S3E7: Mother Wounds - The Hidden Root To Your Porn Addiction

The mother wound is often missed or misunderstood... however, iv found it to be the missing link to most guys wounds that lead them down the road to addictions to sex, porn and masturbation

Why?

Because the mother is at the heart of our safety, nurture, affection and intimacy. She models for us what a women is like and what its like to interact and live around one

When men have a mother wound, they struggle to feel safe, to trust, to risk, to find their voice

S3E3: [Pt.3] My Porn Recovery Freedom Framework - Experiencing Lasting Freedom

The final step in this framework is focused on freedom, but more honestly, its about confidence, integrity and longevity. This is really what guys want… they want to LIVE their lives without the bondage of “what if I slip again” or “what if I get tempted”

ENOUGH with this crap… freedom doesnt talk like this, and I want to explain to you HOW to get free. Its not about time, its about resolving root pain and finding completion in your heart - sure this takes time, but time is not the main factor.


You need a guide for this, hands down. I would love to be that guide if you want to consider working with me

This episode is all about helping YOU make the most of your time and effort, so you can get the healing from porn addiction that you're looking for


In this episode, you will learn about

- the true mindset to prioritizing what matters most

- deep work vs learning and preparing

- making time vs having time

- mission statements

- inner child healing


A lot of this can be fairly easy to apply, however, to stay consistent, thats the true test. If you struggle with consistency, I would assume theres some deeper roots to work through

If you need help healing the roots, book a call with our team. Working with us is often the difference between someone throwing mud against the wall or finding lasting freedom from their porn addiction

Iv been UBER convinced lately that guys need to grow in leadership... I did and I still do, and that's after 7 years of freedom from porn addiction!


Here are a few of my recent convictions: - Leadership is a non-negotiable - leadership is difficult and rarely taught/understood - leadership is built on empathy and strength - Iv missed out on ensuring guys feel fully equipped in the step of leadership - Anytime someone is stuck after growing in self awareness it always comes down to a lack of leadership


Here are some of the biggest challenges I see with clients recently: - Moving from self-awareness to daily AND life long change - How to live in TRUTH when what FEELS TRUE is so powerful - Leading themselves aka, renewing their minds  Here is what I want to explain, explore, and coach you on today: - Where guys are struggling to lead (with examples) - Defining their inner child feelings, thoughts, and needs  - Role-playing leadership to ensure you are fully equipped - my 3 step formula - Learning about the boy within - my 3 step template

- Separating what feels true from what really is true through love and STRENGTH

Most people struggle to feel momentum in their Christian walk. This leads to low self esteem, dull confidence and lukewarm living... which leads guys to relapsing with porn. Not a fun cycle to be in!

One of the biggest reasons I see for this is that we dont know how to truly sharpen one another (Scripture says that iron sharpens iron)

Most people are "great" at giving advice, but the advice is actually harmful, or unhelpful at best...

We focus way to much on the surface problem and neglect peoples deep pain

We must start asking questions that get to the heat of the issue

King Artaxerxis in Nehemiah 2 is a great example of what we call curiosity in the recovery world. He asks Nehemiah a wonderful question to get below the surface, and then further, he asks how he can help RATHER than assuming his advice is what he needs

I also dive ito some paradigm shifts when it comes to discipleship, accountability and friendship

These are some AWESOME tips on how to develop a healthier life which leads to quitting porn and growing in sexual integrity

In this episode, you'll learn why you you're coming up short even if you're "doing all the right things"

This may be in porn recovery, family, marriage, work... whatever it is, you MUST change your core motivation or else you'll stay stuck.

We all have a core identity and from that core identity we have motivations

If your motivations are focused on NOT being a failure and working hard to not be one, you'll miss the gospel

The gospel saves, PERIOD. Jesus is the solution here, but he meets us in such strategies to renew our belief system and change the very reason we do anything

May this be the driver to changing your life... its time to quit porn and masturbation, to redeem your marriage, to enjoy Godly sex and to be men of integrity!
