Sex & Porn Addiction: Why All-or-Nothing Recovery Fails (And What Works Instead

If you've ever promised yourself "never again"—only to fall back into the same compulsive patterns—this episode is for you.

In this raw and powerful lesson, Craig Perra, founder of The Mindful Habit System, exposes why the traditional all-or-nothing, abstinence-only model for treating sex and porn addiction keeps men stuck in shame and failure.

Drawing on the powerful case study of a client named Don, Craig unpacks the psychological cost of using sex to regulate fear, anxiety, and trauma since childhood—and why the key to lasting freedom lies in setting realistic, attainable goals rooted in science, not shame. You’ll learn:
  • Why most men relapse in abstinence-only programs
  • How to separate porn from masturbation as a first harm-reduction step
  • Why frequency, time, and severity must be tracked to build healthy sexuality
  • How to break the perfection/failure cycle and build a culture of success
Whether you're deep in the struggle or supporting a loved one, this episode offers hope, direction, and a radically honest alternative to shame-based recovery.
