Why Can’t I Stay Hard? Diving into the Psychology of Erectile Dysfunction

In this episode, Matt speaks with men’s coach Shay Doran about the psychology and mindset of erectile dysfunction.

The concepts and questions we explore in this episode are:

  • How do erection challenges show up?

  • How does sexual performance anxiety come into play?
  • How does perfectionism play a role in ED?
  • The cycle of shame and secrecy caused by negative feedback loops
  • How demisexuality plays a role in ED
  • Exploring solutions to ED
