174: Don’t Suppress Urges, Here’s How You Can Use Them to Overcome Pornography Use

Have you ever felt trapped by urges that seem impossible to control?

Many people struggling with pornography feel like these moments are scary and overwhelming.

Most advice tells you to fight these urges by staying busy or calling a friend. But that doesn't really solve the problem.

What if, instead of fighting urges, you could understand them? What if these tough moments could actually help you heal and grow?

In today's episode, I'll share a different way to handle these challenges. We'll talk about how understanding your urges can help you find real freedom.

This isn't just helpful for you—it's also important for your relationships. Partners will learn how to see real progress and healing.

For therapy with Sam:

I will work with you for 12 weeks to help you eliminate pornography use and the root cause that started it.

If after the 12 weeks you haven’t fully been able to quit, I’ll work with you 1-1 for free until you do.
