106: How to Guard Against Temptation and How She Can Help

The nagging feeling of an urge or temptation can become so powerful it's hard to resist.

In this episode I share with you specific approaches and tools you can implement to conquer any urges without needing to rely on Willpower or discipline.

Tune in to learn:

  • The key to not feel bad about sexual desire

  • The difference between and urge to watch pornography and normal sexual energy (and how to navigate it without a slip up)?

  • How can you utilize triggers to help you make progress instead of avoiding them?

  • The #1 conversation to avoid with your spouse so you don't cause frustration or a fight.

  • How you can come together effectively to work through any urge or temptation but be on the same team.
