With 5 episodes per week featuring leading experts, real-life stories, research-based findings and Bible-backed teachings, UMW is the #1 weekday men‘s health podcast.
Your host, Sathiya Sam, is a world-renowned coach, international speaker, and author, who specializes in helping professional men overcome porn addiction. His signature program, DeepClean™, has helped athletes, doctors, pastors, executives and entrepreneurs experience long-term freedom by resolving the root issues of sexual misbehavior.
In this episode, Sathya sits down with pastor and author Mike Signorelli to explore purpose, sexual addiction, repentance, and what it really takes to experience lasting freedom. Mike shares his unlikely journey from growing up in a difficult environment to discovering his calling at 15 through a series of powerful encounters with God. The conversation then turns to the growing epidemic of pornography and sexual brokenness, with Mike explaining why overcoming addiction requires more than simply stopping a behavior. He discusses the biological, spiritual, and behavioral sides of addiction, the difference between confession and true biblical repentance, and why genuine freedom often requires painful but necessary changes. Mike also unpacks the relationship between deliverance and discipline, using the biblical examples of Saul and David to explain the importance of repentance and keeping the door closed to destructive patterns. Throughout the conversation, he emphasizes that transformation often involves learning to suffer well, surrendering control, and trusting the Holy Spirit for the strength to walk into a new season of freedom, purpose, and deeper relationship with Christ.

In part four of The Path to Freedom series, Sathiya Sam challenges the common belief that pornography itself is the root problem. While acknowledging its damaging effects on relationships, intimacy, and spiritual well-being, he explains that lasting freedom comes from addressing the deeper issues that drive the behavior rather than simply trying to stop it. Through the lens of recovery archetypes, reflective self-inquiry, and the powerful story of a client named Jim, Sathiya illustrates how identifying the root causes behind pornography use leads to genuine healing and lasting transformation. He encourages listeners to move beyond behavior modification and embrace a personalized path to recovery rooted in self-awareness, compassion, and intentional growth. The episode concludes with an invitation to Freedom Week, an immersive experience designed to help men uncover and heal the underlying issues that keep them stuck.

In this part two of the Path to Freedom solocast series, Sathiya challenged common assumptions about recovery, especially the belief that being stuck is due to a lack of discipline or desire for freedom. Sathiya continues the series on the path to freedom by exposing the five recovery traps that often keep men stuck for years—often without them realizing it. Drawing from personal experience and years of coaching thousands of men, Sathiya reveals how misdiagnosing the real problem leads to repeated setbacks, and why true transformation requires more than just knowledge or willpower. Tune in as we unpack these traps, explore the deeper causes behind addictive behaviors, and offer a clear roadmap to help you step into lasting freedom. If you’re ready to identify what’s truly holding you back, this episode is for you.

Together, they examine the alarming rise in suicide rates—particularly among men—and explore how depression, anxiety, unresolved trauma, and emotional suppression can gradually lead to suicidal ideation when left unaddressed. Drawing from personal experiences, they discuss the cultural pressures that discourage vulnerability and make it difficult for many men to seek help.
Sathiya and Sam also examine the roles of faith, community, and meaningful relationships in recovery, while discussing how financial stress, social media, and modern culture contribute to declining mental health. Throughout the episode, they share practical guidance for recognizing warning signs, supporting loved ones in crisis, and cultivating emotional resilience.

In this episode, Sathiya introduces The Path to Freedom, a five-part series that helps men break free from pornography by addressing the root causes of addiction rather than its symptoms. Drawing from nearly a decade of coaching thousands of men, he explains why lasting freedom doesn't come through greater discipline, accountability, or willpower, but from identifying the deeper issues driving destructive behaviors. He explores why behavior-focused recovery often falls short, comparing symptom management to treating an infection while ignoring the underlying disease. Sathiya then introduces five recovery archetypes—the Independent Guy, the Wounded Warrior, the Shame Cycler, the Performer, and the Divided Man—illustrating how each requires a different path to lasting freedom. Finally, he shares the three pillars of recovery—awareness, healing, and identity—and introduces the Freedom Assessment and Freedom Week, a personalized framework designed to help men understand their unique struggles and create a clear roadmap toward lasting freedom.

In this episode, Sathiya sits down with Zach, a DeepClean graduate, to discuss his journey from a lifelong struggle with pornography to lasting recovery and deeper personal growth. Zach shares how accidental exposure in childhood led to years of secrecy, shame, and repeated relapses despite pursuing counseling, accountability, and 12-step recovery. He reflects on the difficult process of rebuilding trust in his marriage, confronting the fear of being fully known, and recognizing that true recovery involves transformation of the heart, not just behavior change. Together, they explore key shifts that accelerated Zach’s progress, including understanding the beliefs beneath addictive behaviors, addressing unmet emotional needs, and developing greater emotional awareness. The conversation highlights practical tools such as journaling, breathwork, and honest connection with God, as well as the role these practices have played in strengthening Zach’s relationships, faith, and confidence as he prepares to become a father. Zach also shares how learning to identify lies, embrace vulnerability, and take consistent action helped him achieve nearly 10 months of freedom and build a healthier, more intentional life.

In this episode, Sathiya sits down with renowned neurosurgeon, author, and speaker Dr. Lee Warren to explore the intersection of neuroscience, faith, trauma, and transformation. Drawing from his experiences as a combat neurosurgeon during the Iraq War, surviving PTSD, and grieving the loss of his 19-year-old son, Mitch, Dr. Warren shares how those painful seasons led him to discover the powerful connection between intentional thinking, faith, and neuroplasticity. The conversation explores the difference between the mind and the brain, how thoughts shape the body and behavior, and why modern neuroscience increasingly supports biblical principles about renewing the mind. Sathiya and Dr. Warren also discuss addiction recovery, habit formation, resilience through suffering, the importance of community and brotherhood, and Dr. Warren’s concept of “self-brain surgery” — the process of intentionally rewiring the brain through thought patterns, faith, and action. Throughout the episode, they reflect on scriptures including Romans 12, Philippians 4, Romans 5, and Psalm 103, ultimately encouraging listeners to embrace hope, pursue healing, and recognize their God-given capacity for growth and transformation through adversity.

In this special solo episode, Sathiya shares a major realization after years of helping men overcome pornography addiction: transformation is not primarily about gaining more knowledge, but about taking the right action in the right environment. Reflecting on his own recovery journey and the evolution of DeepClean, Sathiya explains why so many men remain stuck despite consuming endless content, courses, podcasts, and recovery tools. He introduces the concept of “proximity” — the power of being deeply connected to honest, growth-minded men and why true breakthrough often happens through meaningful relationships and in-person experiences rather than isolation or surface-level accountability. Throughout the episode, he explores the exhaustion of pretending, the importance of being fully known, and how the right environment can accelerate healing and personal growth. Sathiya also announces the very first annual DeepClean Retreat happening this fall in Dallas, Texas, designed to help men reconnect with God, themselves, and authentic brotherhood while creating lasting freedom and wholeness.

In this episode, Sathiya explains why trying to quit porn alone isn’t just ineffective — it’s unbiblical and counterproductive. If effort alone worked, you’d already be free.
He unpacks how isolation fuels secrecy, rumination, and internal pressure, making self-control harder rather than easier. Scripture consistently shows that transformation happens in community, not in solitude.
True freedom requires structure, visibility, rhythm, and brotherhood. Community doesn’t replace discipline — it sustains growth long enough for real change to compound.

He explains that the real damage isn’t the single act — it’s the repeated postponement that keeps men stuck, especially high-functioning men whose lives still “look fine” on the outside.
Freedom doesn’t start with dramatic vows or rock bottom. It begins with a simple interruption — small, intentional actions that restore clarity and shift direction.

In this episode, Sathiya unpacks whether porn addiction is more like cocaine or alcohol — and explains why the answer is actually both. Drawing from neuroscience and personal experience, he breaks down how pornography hijacks the brain through rapid dopamine spikes (like cocaine) while also becoming a predictable emotional coping tool (like alcohol).
He explains why minimizing porn leads to ineffective recovery strategies and why willpower alone fails. Because porn trains both the brain’s reward system and emotional regulation system, recovery must intentionally retrain both.
Sathiya closes with practical steps: interrupt dopamine loops by optimizing technology, identify what porn has been providing emotionally, and pursue freedom in community rather than isolation.

He emphasizes that the true nature of addiction lies in the conflict between desire and self-loathing, where individuals often crave something they simultaneously detest. Drawing on the research of Dr. Gary Wilson, Sathiya explains how early excitement from porn fades, leading to a reliance on it as a coping mechanism for stress and discomfort. This creates a cycle of shame and confusion, where the desire for porn persists despite a lack of enjoyment.

Topics include grace vs. performance, fear-based recovery, belief-driven behavior change, emotional regulation, confession and connection, radical tech boundaries, and the long-term impact of recovery on marriage and fatherhood.

In this powerful episode, Silas St. John shares how over a decade of pornography addiction and hidden shame led him to deep despair and suicidal thoughts. Despite years of trying to quit on his own, the isolation only made things worse.
Everything began to change when Silas finally reached out for help and entered a process that addressed his emotions, identity, and connection—not just his behavior. Today, Silas is living in freedom, clarity, and hope.
This conversation is a reminder that no one is too far gone, and that real freedom begins when we stop fighting alone.

Christmas is one of the most triggering times of the year, bringing both celebration and danger. This episode summarizes the core strategies from the 5-part "Christmas Clean" series, providing five top, practical tips to ensure you stay clean through the holidays and launch into the New Year with momentum.
The key goal is to avoid the common pattern of accruing significant "debt" (relapses/slips) over Christmas, which can be so large that even the New Year's momentum isn't enough to overcome it. By staying clean now, you can enter a "surplus" in January, allowing you to build something meaningful and sustainable.

As we help more and more guys quit porn, I've changed my mind on what the hardest part about quitting is.
I used to think it was consistency and falling off, and having to get back on the horse (which is still extremely difficult, to be sure).
But recently I've noticed that there's a much deeper issue...and if nobody's ever told you about it, you probably won't randomly uncover it and find success. So, let me share with you my new answer to the hardest part of quitting pornography and take what's probably in your subconscious and make it conscious...so you can grow and recover.
In this episode, we discuss:
2:04 My OLD answer to this question...
4:33 The one quote that explains my NEW answer
8:02 How to truly recover...embrace the loss!

Plus, you'll learn the third piece of this puzzle and how to heal and bring everything back into alignment.
In this episode, we discuss:
0:43 The difference between desire and arousal

We run a coaching program to help men break free from pornography addiction, we run a podcast to the same effect, we post on Instagram about it all the time...pretty safe to say we inherently understand and believe porn is bad.
Yet as we get more and more chances to speak to people in the "outside" or "secular" world, we're coming across more and more people who are asking us why porn is bad.
So, to answer that basic but very important question, we're dropping this episode today to show just HOW bad and harmful pornography is...to those watching and those acting.
Let this sink in and really ask yourself whether it's still worth it.
In this episode, we discuss:
0:35 What's ACTUALLY bad about porn?
2:54 Reframe...why is porn harmful?
3:20 The negative consequences of porn use
4:50 Physical side effects
6:14 Decreased sexual satisfaction and bad education
7:52 Broken relationship dynamics
8:23 The morality of pornography

We focus a LOT on the negative consequences of porn addiction, and for good reason. The fear of pain is often more motivating than the promise of reward.
BUT...it can't be all about escaping consequences forever. That type of motivation will wear a man out after awhile if it's not balanced with some positive expectations.
Today we break down 3 of the major positive changes to look forward to when you get free from porn. Look forward with joy and hope!
In this episode, we discuss:
0:38 The joys awaiting you on the other side of freedom
2:42 Create a vision board of your porn-free life (why do you actually WANT to quit pornography?)
4:18 Change #1: You start to feel powerful
6:20 Change #2: You will feel purposeful...your life MATTERS
8:15 Change #3: You'll feel connected

The difference between boys and men is that boys are impatient and think they can get whatever they want without the time and effort that it requires.
Boys spend all their time on "get rich quick" schemes (financially, in fitness, in recovery), when they could have had what they wanted already if they had just prioritized long-term outcomes from the get-go.
In this episode, Sathiya will help you become a MAN by making the choices real men make.
In this episode, we discuss:

There was a period where I was unsatisfied with "just" helping guys quit porn. It felt like something was missing.

In this episode, I want to talk to you about the danger of pursuing your potential, and then outline two specific things that will help you pursue your potential healthily, without cratering OR settling.
In this episode, we discuss:

Today Sathiya sits down with Pastor Mike Novotny to discuss his work bringing light to taboo subjects, including pornography addiction, and how Mike was freed from his own addiction.
It seems like so many Christians have a hard time talking about subjects that are uncomfortable or make us squirm a little, and sadly that's actually one of the reasons why believers still struggle with things like porn addiction...because we don't confess to one another (regularly!).
This is a convicting and very practical episode...make sure to pick up Pastor Mike's newest book Taboo (link below)!
Pastor Mike Novotny has served God’s people in full-time ministry since 2007 in Madison and, most recently, at The CORE in Appleton, Wisconsin. He also serves as the lead speaker for Time of Grace, where he shares the good news about Jesus through television, print, and online platforms.
In this episode, we discuss:
0:00 Introducing Mike Novotny
2:00 Why start talking specifically about taboo subjects?
4:18 Why is porn addiction so prevalent among Christians, even those who regularly go to church?
5:12 How to resist ever-present temptation
8:35 Should we revolt against the word "purity"?
12:27 When God heals you of porn addiction
17:40 Confession for quitting porn
22:32 Why talk about suicide
29:33 How to think about technology and social media
37:42 Tools to combat the enemy
40:44 How to get deeper into the Word of God
44:00 Scriptures to help you defeat sexual sin

Before we get into the live coaching, Sathiya and Shawn discuss singleness and whether the church is doing a good enough job encouraging and talking about singleness, or if marriage has become a bit of an idol. This is a great conversation for all of our single listeners who are wondering how to navigate that while still struggling with addiction to pornography...we got you!
We brought on two amazing listeners who asked questions, and we did our best to give them some live coaching during the episode. Questions include fertility and the consequences of porn use, as well as how to navigate constant and overwhelming urges (even if you don't give into them).

The good news is, the solution is in you. YOU get to be part of the change not only in your own life, but in the world at large. Join me in being part of the change that shifts your life and the trajectory of the world forever.

Internet filters didn't help me in my recovery, so at the beginning of DeepClean I was actually against using them. They can actually be a bit of a crutch and may stop you from going deeper to get true freedom. BUT...I've noticed that they're not always bad. It just depends where you're at in the journey and what kind of help you're getting.
In this episode, I'll give you my current, nuanced answer, and hope to clear up any confusion you may have about whether they're actually useful in your own recovery.
In this episode, I discuss:
1:50 Do you ever need to use an internet filter? (My current opinion)
4:53 You have to have the internal solutions, or none of this will work
6:22 So, should you use an internet filter? Maybe...
7:45 Consider the long term impact

Sathiya introduces the concept of everyone being "blind," not in terms of physical vision but in terms of our focus and what we neglect. The inspiration for this topic comes from Jordan B Peterson's book "The 12 Rules for Life." We all have certain things we choose to focus on, which leads to neglecting other areas and creates blindness. An example of how cultural differences can highlight this blindness is given with a story about food customs. Sathiya emphasizes the importance of compensating for blindness, which can be achieved through learning from others and getting clarity about problems. Podcasts are mentioned as valuable resources for alleviating blind spots and encouraging collaboration with others to broaden perspectives.

Inspired by an upcoming interview with Benji Nolot of Exodus Cry, Sathiya shares the 5 ways that pornography and sex trafficking intersect. While these two subjects are often discussed separately, the reality is they are inextricably linked in rather disturbing ways. By understanding the correlation between the two, you may think twice the next time you feel tempted to watch porn.
1) Predatory nature of prostitution
2) Non-consenting is the norm for prostitutes (and then the films are released online)
3) Child victims of sex trafficking are shown pornography as a way to groom them into sex trafficking in the name of love
4) Pornography fuels men's appetite for prostitution
5) Pornography is created through multiple layers of coercion (not abduction)

At some point in recovery, you will experience anxiety about a relapse, especially as you make progress. Today's episode outlines 2 areas you must address when experiencing relapse anxiety. The first is the real reason for the anxiety.
Typically we resort to "fear of losing progress" or something of that nature, but if you dig a bit deeper you often find other areas that need more attention.
Secondly, we want to "fear-set" any anxiety we experience, especially when we make progress. What is the worst case scenario? How would you respond? Would you survive? Often fear-setting is exactly what is needed to give us a lift past the obstacles we're facing.

Progress is the name of the game when it comes to recovery. Unless God performs a miracle, the reality is that recovery takes time (and to be honest - even a miracle takes time before it finally happens usually!).
Today's episode talks about a common experience many men face when progress starts to take place – the fear of losing it! When you are at rock bottom, the only way is up. When you start to head up, then you have something to lose. For someone who has a history of relapse, broken promises, and cyclical behavior, progress can be scary and fuel the pressure of recovery. This episode provides the first step you must take when you begin to experience this fear, otherwise you will likely revert back to your old ways eventually.

Dr. Juli Slattery is a clinical psychologist, author, speaker and the president/co-founder of Authentic Intimacy. Juli earned her college degree at Wheaton College, an MA in psychology from Biola University, and an MS and a Doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology from Florida Institute of Technology.
From 2008-2012, Dr. Slattery served at Focus on the Family writing, teaching, and co-hosting the Focus on the Family Broadcast. In 2012, she left Focus on the Family to start Authentic Intimacy, a ministry devoted to reclaiming God’s design for sexuality.

Juli is the author of twelve books, including the newly released "God, Sex, and Your Marriage," and host of the weekly podcast “Java with Juli.” Juli and her husband Mike are the parents of 3 sons; they live in Akron, Ohio.
On today's episode, she and Sathiya explore the true meaning of Biblical sexuality, and why this conversation spans far beyond "don't have sex before marriage" and "God designed sex, therefore sex is good." Specifically, Juli explains how the broader narrative of scripture enables us to understand more specific scriptures that address matters related to sex, why everything in creation is designed to reveal God (sex included), and how a Biblical approach to sex permits us to embrace our sexuality rather than avoid it.
In the second half, the interview talks about how leaders can both get the help they deserve while also helping those in their realm of care and responsibility get the help they deserve. Dr. Juli is a wealth of knowledge – if you have any interest in better understanding your sexuality through a biblical lens, this episode was made for you.

Anger is the emotion men are given the most permission to express. While anger is in fact a healthy emotion, we must ensure that we are handling it appropriately, specifically in a way that is neither domestic nor docile. When anger is processed, it usually involves something personal (journaling, creative arts, talking to someone, etc) and something physical (working out, going for a walk, massage, etc). Today's episode unpacks this concept with several examples to give you a handle on your experience of anger.

Some research suggests that up to 50% of our memory is fabricated. Why? Because we feel the need to insert details that will evoke the same level of emotional response we had in the initial incident. These dynamics can make healing from trauma more tricky. Today's episode explores these elements in greater detail, while explaining that even if a memory is primarily fabricated, if it had an impact on you it must be addressed.

Shannon Ethridge is a million-copy best-selling author, international speaker, certified life coach, and advocate for healthy sexuality with a master’s degree in counseling/ human relations from Liberty University. She boldly speaks to high school and college students, single adults, and married couples about embracing a lifestyle of sexual integrity, overcoming past sexual & emotional baggage, cultivating genuine intimacy in marriage, and instilling sexual values in young children.
In today's episode she and Sathiya talk about how to interpret sexual fantasies, and why they may not be as detrimental as you think. In fact, Shannon makes an argument that if you truly understand the origins of your sexual fantasies, you can leverage them to strengthen your sexual experiences whether you're single or married. Shannon also shares about whether not masturbation is a sin, several case studies of former clients who were able to heal from sexual trauma and have thriving sex lives, what women really experience when they are engaging in sex, and necessary paradigm shifts the church must make to truly enjoy sex again.

The reason most fail to recover from porn addiction is not because of a lack of knowledge, resource or execution – often times it is because of a lack of hope.

Recovery requires both skill acquisition and character development, however both are acquired through different means. Skills are taught, which means anyone can develop the necessary abilities to make a full recovery. Meanwhile character is caught, in other words, it is most developed by being around people of good character (ref 1 Corinthians 15:33). You must be certain that your recovery approach does not confuse the two – skills are not caught, and character is not best taught. Ideally, your recovery solution will involve a conglomerate of both – learning skills while being surrounded by men of character that are able to push you in both areas.
The episode ends with an opportunity to assess which of these areas requires more attention in order for you to move past your current barrier into the next layer of freedom.

A follow-up to Episode 347, today's content deep dives into why we must have both the memory of an elephant and a goldfish if we want to make a long-term recovery. The memory of an elephant allows us to be conscious of our strengths, to learn from our past mistakes, and to ensure that we stay wise. The memory of a goldfish allows us to avoid regret and to ensure that no mistake of the past lingers. Using Steph Curry as a case study, today's episode will show you how to harness the power of your memory in a way that launches you towards a place of lasting freedom.

Today's interview is a special one as we dive deep into a recent recovery story that has taken place in the DeepClean community. Stories like these are important for all of us to hear – it reminds us that God is on the move NOW and that freedom is possible for everyone.
Leshan and his wife were fighting daily, sometimes going days without speaking to each other, and even getting into physical altercations. His patience was thin, temper was high, and porn was driving much of his problemed behavior. Getting professional help felt risky and as he shares in today's interview, Leshan had his doubts, but he knew that something had to change.
With each lesson and session, hope began to rise, until one day his wife remarked that he wasn't short with her the way he usually was. That's when he realized the tide was turning. Six months of freedom later, Leshan and his wife have never been happier, and he feels confident that he will be able to walk further into God's calling on his life.

Today's episode explores the unique counter-play between emotional danger and psychological safety. Often we find comfort in the familiar, even when the familiar is toxic and working against us. Sometimes the reason that evoking positive change in your life is so challenging is because it poses as a threat to what we are comfortable with. This irony can often cause us to stay in what's comfortable, even though it is problematic. However, when you become aware of the dynamic, you can find a much better option to handle the changes that come with recovery.

In today's interview, Kutter and Sathiya discuss why scientific research is not absolute, a healthy way for integrating theology and academia, and why good psychology will always enhance one's theology and vice versa. The interview ends with a segment where Sathiya poses a commonplace term like "community" and Kutter explains the concept through both a theological lens and then a psychological lens.
This episode will provide you with a deeper understanding of why many practices in psychology have spiritual significance and some guidance on how to properly perceive academic research in a society that supremely values it.

Introspection is a beautiful thing. It allows us to understand ourselves better, piece together parts of our past, and ultimately grow. But as history often shows, you can have too much of a good thing. Today's episode explains the catch 22 of introspection – we must use it to facilitate our recovery process, yet it can hinder our recovery if it is overdone. Beware of this balancing act as you embark on the recovery journey.

In the early years of adulthood, hobbies are more or less built into our lives. But as careers develop and families begin to grow, without intentionality hobbies typically fall to the wayside. This is a huge travesty, as hobbies provide cushioning between stimulus and response, and conditioning to create separation between responsibilities and roles in our live. Both of these are vital for long-term freedom, and today's episode explains why (while offering many examples of a hobby you could begin today).

If you have dealt with any degree of self-hatred before, you will understand just how taxing the experience can be. Typically self-hatred is when we explain discrepancies, uncertainties, and shortcomings in life using inner measures.
While we know that self-compassion, turning to God, and finding places of belonging are important, these solutions are often executed prematurely, having minimal effect as a result. Instead, you must first address the issue of control in the situation.
Today's episode explains why, how, and the beautiful benefits of following this process.

The biggest mistake you can make pursuing freedom from pornography is doing it alone. The second biggest mistake is pursuing freedom exclusively with others who are struggling.

When I was addicted to porn for 15 years, there were almost zero resources out there offering any kind of useful insight or support to recover from porn addiction. In fact, the lack of resources that I experienced during my recovery is what fueled me to create this daily podcast. Thankfully, more resources are available today than ever before and I wanted to share with you a few that I highly recommend. You'll notice that some of these resources are more directly tied to porn addiction than others, and there is a good reason for that. Sometimes the best resources don't necessary speak straight to the issue, they speak straight to the heart. If they heal the heart, they'll likely help the addiction too.

Today's episode explores a common issue many men face today – people pleasing. Ironically, people pleasing behavior is usually done to protect the relationship, when in reality, it causes long-term damage. If you cannot show up authentically in a relationship, it will suffer. This episode gives you the following four questions to ask yourself if you are struggling with people pleasing behavior of any kind, using a personal example from Sathiya's life to illustrate their application:
1) What am I afraid of? 2) What lie is driving my fear? 3) What is the truth? 4) What does it look like to act on the truth?

If you've ever engaged in pornography, you know that it can be a slippery slope. Thresholds for pleasure and content intensity can increase, leading us to places we never imagined were possible. It is important to know that for starters, you are not defined by what you watch, no matter how dark/intense it may be. There are neurological concepts at play that often drive us to these places, namely: 1) Novelty enhances pleasure 2) Neural associations form in moments of curiosity
Today's episode deep dives into these two concepts, using personal stories and examples to illustrate the power they have in addiction.

A lot of the messaging in this podcast and DeepClean can come across as "anti-filter", when in reality, internet filters can have an essential place in the porn recovery process. The mistake men commonly make is relying exlusively on the filter – this can lead to disastrous outcomes. When a filter is supplementary to an inner transformation process (program, counseling, coaching, etc), it can be highly beneficial, provided it is used appropriately. Today's episode explains exactly how you can do that.

Today's episode is inspired by Stephen covey's Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, touching on the importance of understanding process and letting people into your specific place in a process. Male tendency is to put on a façade making it appear that we know more/are further ahead than we really are. As a result, we rob ourselves of gaining the knowledge necessary to simply move to the next step in the process, ultimately hindering our growth. When we embrace humility and learn to honestly let leaders in, a world of change becomes possible.

Toxic masculinity is the notion that all men should be tough, aggressive, antifeminine, and dominant. These characteristics can be true of men, but they are not a requirement, which is why they have been termed as 'toxic.' However, in response, a new male prototype has been created – one that is highly sensitive, feminine, soft, and passive. This pendulum swing has been equally problematic. Today's episode explores these concepts in greater detail while offering a different definition for masculinity: The authentic male is inherently masculine.

Rob Kowalski was raised by a 15 yr old mother with no strong male role model in the picture. He taught himself how to “be a man”, and eventually became the most sought-after male stripper in his hometown of Baltimore. At 25, he became a nightclub promoter and took over the nightlife in Charm City. His life looked like something out of a movie - full of sex, drugs, and alcohol. Then he had a radical life-changing encounter with Jesus that transformed him forever. God turned his mess into his message and he is now considered the #1 authority on sex, waiting for the right person, and overcoming loneliness in life. In this candid interview, Rob details his story while explaining the importance of men having an adventure (to escape boredom) and the benefits of waiting until marriage to have sex in very practical terms.
DISCLAIMER: Rob uses slightly more colorful language than our average guests and his background story is graphic at times. Listener discretion is advised.

After a very emotional response from the congregation to a simple sermon illustration in 1999, Barry decided to post the video online. Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that this compilation of paraphrased Bible passages would transform millions of people around the world and be translated into over 100 languages.

This simple sermon illustration perfectly embodies these concepts and will be extremely valuable for you in a recovery context. If you're looking to love yourself more and become more confident in your own skin, you will want to hear this interview.
