What have you tried so far to quit porn? Internet filters, accountability buddies, talk therapy, church or religious programs… Many of these have merit, but they are often missing key elements for long-lasting sobriety. It isn’t enough to just “stop watching porn”. Addiction is a symptom of deeper, underlying challenges that need to be addressed through a total overhaul of lifestyle and mindset.

My mission isn't just to help people quit porn, but to help them build this recovery mindset and lifestyle using hands-on, daily exercises that retrain their brain and forge new habits that last a lifetime. Once this mindset and lifestyle is established, the desire for porn naturally fades.
