Helping Men Quit Porn and Other Vices with Devin McDermott

Helping Men Quit Porn and Other Vices with Devin McDermott

For a while now, I’ve always thought about the looming societal collapse brought about by porn. This started when I read about this OnlyFans chick setting out ads to attract 100 guys who want to have sex with her in one day.

That news was so shocking to me, and the more I delved into its story, it broke my heart how big the problem is. As luck would have it, I chanced upon an old friend at one of my favorite wellness spas in Playa, and learned that he helps men quit porn addiction and assists them in optimizing the other parts of their life.

My friend– Devin McDermott. He got into the porn addiction recovery industry after overcoming a 13-year addiction, which was extremely difficult for him, and then, after feeling how much his life improved because of that change (and all the other changes I had to make in order to successfully quit...) he decided he wanted to help others with it, too. Four years later, he has worked with over 125 guys from all over the world, and impacted thousands through his newsletter, MagneticMan.co.

I invited Devin to come on the pod to discuss this, and we’d love for you to sit with us and do a deep dive into this topic. We chatted about…

  • Surprising statistics about porn, married men with OnlyFans subscription accounts, erectile dysfunction in young men
  • How porn is worse than alcohol or drugs… even if you only “do it casually or rarely”
  • Most common misconceptions about porn
  • How the masculine core is rooted in discipline, purpose, and mission, and if men cannot fix this, they will always be dissatisfied with who they are being
  • Addressing rationalizations for porn use, and easy mindset shifts
  • How porn addiction bleeds through other parts of the man’s life
  • How to properly quit porn… and other bad habits in your life (big or small)
  • Resources, tools, and learnings in beating ANY addiction
  • Success stories from Devin’s past clients…who are the people you would least expect to be addicted to porn

I had a really great time discussing this with Devin, and it was so refreshing to discuss this with the male perspective because I felt like it made our conversation more holistic.

Stress Management for Founders and Entrepreneurs with Kelsey March

Stress Management for Founders and Entrepreneurs with Kelsey March

Let's face it -- the main reason why most people are not entrepreneurs is because the level of pressure, optimism, and hard work are different. The demands and expectations are different. For those who see the rewards to be "worth it", they choose this path and do what it takes. So where does that leave us, entrepreneurs? Usually, in a cocktail of stress and exhaustion, especially if you're starting out. (Unless you outsource and get the right support.... *wink wink*)Listen in as Kelsey and I discuss the basics of stress management for Founders, mental strength, nervous system regulation, and the best habits for a stress-free life. Kelsey helps 6 and 7 figure entrepreneurs streamline their operations and provide ease and support for their life decisions. Something like a business and life coach in one!

Let's Talk About Passport Bros and Where Feminism Failed with Steve Didier

Let's Talk About Passport Bros and Where Feminism Failed with Steve Didier

This has been a conversation I've always wanted to have! A few weeks ago, I discovered "passport bros", defined in Urban Dictionary as "men* who have chosen to seek out foreign women, typically from other countries, for relationships. They believe that western women have been influenced by cultural and societal pressures to behave in a certain way, and that by seeking out foreign women, they can find a more authentic, fulfilling, and harmonious relationship. This is seen as a way to restore the natural balance between masculine and feminine energy, and to avoid the "wickedness" of western women."*Mostly referring to American menDefinitely very fascinating, and I wanted to talk to one who went through a meaningful reflection process before just colloquially identifiying as one.Steve, a successful Founder and entrepreneur with a thriving location independent business and investments, sat with me to talk about his experience with women, why he prefers dating women abroad, and personal stories of how he saw women around him change as the years went by. One of the highlights of this conversation was how feminism morphed its meaning throughout the years. Maybe it's a branding issue, maybe it's a reflection of culture. And how THIS, contributed to the rise of "passport bros". Listen with an open mind....and an open bag of Doritos.
