    Life Check Yourself Episode 471- “Is He Watching Too Much Porn? How to Know If It’s Time to Talk” with Matthew Sinkovitz

    In this week’s episode, Marni welcomes Matthew Sinkovitz to the Life Check Yourself studio. Matthew is the founder of the Porn to Purpose Community, which he started in 2019 after battling pornography addiction. With years of coaching, therapy, and 12-step recovery work, Matthew is on a mission to help men transform their lives. His focus on personal and spiritual development, mindfulness, and recovery offers a powerful path for those seeking freedom from addiction. They dive deep into the complex topic of pornography addiction, its impact on relationships, and the journey to reclaim purpose. Matthew shares insights from his own recovery and discusses strategies to overcome this pervasive issue. Key Takeaways: Awareness of the Addiction Creating a Safe Space for Vulnerability Purpose as a Solution to Addiction    Awareness and Denial of Addiction (12:35) Pornography addiction often thrives in secrecy and denial. Many individuals fail to recognize the extent of the problem until it severely impacts their lives. By gaining awareness, it becomes possible to take the first step toward recovery. This shift in consciousness can break cycles of addictive behavior and lead to genuine healing. Awareness is critical because it fosters accountability, making it easier to change self-destructive habits. "The problem is, a man might not have the awareness to know that it’s a problem, or he might not be willing enough to admit that it’s a problem."   The Importance of Vulnerability in Relationships (25:45) Creating a safe environment for honesty is essential for both personal recovery and the health of relationships. Vulnerability without judgment encourages honesty, which leads to growth and deeper understanding. Acknowledging and addressing issues in an environment of support is the key to real transformation. “The creation of some sort of space around having a healthy conversation... you have to take responsibility for judging or being critical.” Purpose as a Solution to Addiction (40:15) A lack of purpose often leads to feelings of boredom, isolation, and insignificance, which drive individuals toward addictive behaviors. By defining and pursuing a meaningful life, negative habits become less appealing and easier to break. Purpose gives individuals direction, leading to self-improvement and fulfillment. Having a sense of mission empowers personal growth and significantly diminishes the urge to engage in destructive behaviors.  "When I was on purpose in life, the things that didn’t serve me naturally fell by the wayside."   Make a Connection: 3 Secrets Men Wish You Knew *Free Download* How to Eliminate Burnout: How to use the Radical Living Blueprint to Reinvent Your Life Ready To Take Control Of Your Life?  Book A Call With Us Unlock the shocking truth about how your unique personality type is silently shaping your future The Liberation Boot Camp- Porn To Purpose

It’s about aligning our choices—whether material or behavioral—with values that support a meaningful life.

By tuning into these bodily sensations, we can begin to trust the signals our body sends, guiding us toward the healing we need.

Breaking Down to Break Through (17:45) It’s in the moments of greatest distress that clarity can emerge, providing the opportunity to realign and rebuild a new direction in life. These breaking points often serve as gateways to deeper personal transformation, allowing us to create a life aligned with our true desires.   “It was like the worst day of my life, but it was also the most pivotal because it put me on a different path.”   Emotional Energy and Healing (25:00) Somatic work teaches that emotions are energy, and blocked emotional energy creates physical and emotional pain. When people allow themselves to feel emotions—especially the ones they avoid like sadness or grief—they make room for healing and forward movement.Emotions like anger often mask deeper feelings like sadness.

They explore the complexities of modern relationships, particularly focusing on the evolving roles of men and women. Together, the duo uncover actionable strategies to build stronger, healthier relationships based on mutual understanding and growth.   Redefining Masculinity in Modern Relationships The Importance of Emotional Safety in Love Effective Conflict Resolution and Repair Strategies   The Evolution of Masculine and Feminine Roles in Relationships [00:08:35]   In today's relationships, both men and women are navigating an unprecedented level of freedom. With traditional gender roles evolving, the challenge becomes making intentional choices that benefit both partners without falling back on outdated expectations. The key is creating new, shared rules for the partnership while respecting each other's individuality.   "The paradox of choice is that when everything is on the table, how do you make the right choice for yourself?"    Love Languages Reimagined: Building Emotional Safety [00:23:45]   Emotional safety is foundational to a successful relationship. While love languages help communicate affection, they only work if partners feel secure. Safety allows individuals to express their needs freely, and without it, no amount of acts of service or physical touch can stabilize the relationship.   "If you don’t have safety, the relationship will still be on shaky ground." Communication Breakdowns and Repair Conversations [00:47:20]   When conflicts arise in a relationship, repairing the emotional damage requires time and effort. Quick apologies aren’t enough; true healing involves understanding the other person's perspective and demonstrating accountability. Deep-seated issues may need repeated conversations, but each discussion can strengthen the bond and help both partners grow.   "The deeper the wound, the more stitches you need."   Make a Connection: 3 Secrets Men Wish You Knew *Free Download* How to Eliminate Burnout: How to use the Radical Living Blueprint to Reinvent Your Life Ready To Take Control Of Your Life?  Book A Call With Us Unlock the shocking truth about how your unique personality type is silently shaping your future Strong: A Relationship Field Guide for the Modern Man- Get Your Copy Now STRONG.LOVE- Kristal Desantis Website

Overcoming Negative Self-Talk (22:30) The process of overcoming negative self-talk involves more than just "flipping the script."
