Why do so many people turn to porn, scrolling, or other escapes when life gets overwhelming?
In this episode, Andrew explores the deeper issue behind many unwanted habits: emotional dysregulation. When we don’t know how to process anger, stress, shame, or sadness, it’s easy to look for something outside ourselves to numb the feeling.
You’ll learn how to recognize “hot emotions” like anger and frustration and “cold emotions” like loneliness and self-criticism, and how to regulate them before they pull you into destructive patterns.
Real freedom isn’t just avoiding porn — it’s learning how to stay grounded when emotions hit hard.
