    Habits of Sobriety: Cycles, Rituals & Triggers

    Humans are predictable because humans are habitual. Our repeated behaviors can be identified in series of cues, responses and rewards. As we continue to grow and mature, we can learn to identify our addictive cycles, the rituals within them and the triggers that start them. In doing so, we become adept at interrupting our cycles with well-laid plans. Name the trigger, Question it with curiosity, Share it with someone and Move away from it. --Links-- Online Small Group One-on-One Coachi...

    Habits of Sobriety: Environment, Routine & Consumption Habits

    In the throes of addiction, we most often lead ourselves into temptation rather than being caught completely off-guard. Therefore, it's important for us to identify how our environment, our routines and our media consumption contribute to our constant battles with temptation. Let's look at the habits we've created that may not be inherently bad but are ultimately unhelpful in getting us to where we want to go. --Links--Online Small GroupOne-on-One CoachingBook: Numb to Known - the surpri...

    On Passivity: Gathering evidence that I am powerful

    In this episode, I talk about how we relieve our passivity of the old ways of doing things. We can do this by gathering evidence that what I've been afraid of is not actually going to bring me down or take me out. I begin to do the courageous act, to engage when I'd rather disengage, to be intentional when I'd rather rationalize my way into inaction and to take ownership when it'd be easier to blame someone else for my issues. --Links-- Online Small Group One-on-One Coaching Book: Numb to Kn...

    On Passivity: Getting comfortable with discomfort

    In this episode, I talk about our pursuit of comfort and what it's stealing from us. Our goal in working hard is not to arrive at a place of comfort but that we get comfortable with discomfort. Why? Because discomfort is the only way I grow and progress. Porn, and addiction in general, thrive on mindsets and behaviors that are either comfort-seeking or discomfort-avoidant. We can begin to change that in our own lives.--Links--Online Small GroupOne-on-One CoachingBook: Numb to Known - the surp...

    On Passivity: The good motivation but ineffective strategy of passivity

    In this episode, I talk about how our passivity is just a part of us that has good intentions to protect us but ineffective strategies in leading us to where we actually want to go. The part of us that's passive doesn't need to "die". It just needs a new goal and a new strategy. --Links-- Online Small Group One-on-One Coaching Book: Numb to Known - the surprising path away from porn

    On Pain: Engaging Our Stories

    In this episode of Numb to Known, I dive into the power of engaging with our stories of past pain. Drawing on insights from Dan Allender, Adam Young’s The Place We Find Ourselves, Jay Stringer’s Unwanted, and my book Numb to Known, I explore how facing past hurts can transform our present lives. I’ll look at how brain science and scripture both reveal the importance of processing pain instead of burying it, breaking the patterns that fuel addiction and unhealthy behaviors.
