Episode Description:

If you’re trying to quit pornography but feel like you’re constantly falling behind, this episode is exactly what you need.

In today’s conversation, Sam Tielemans, licensed marriage therapist and coach, breaks down a powerful shift that can help you get unstuck — without burning out. If you’ve ever thought, “I’m not doing enough,” or you’ve slipped back into old patterns, this episode will help you refocus and move forward with confidence.

You’ll learn:
✅ Why feeling stuck in quitting porn doesn’t mean you’re off track
✅ What to do when you feel like you’re falling behind in porn recovery
✅ The real reason your wife might not feel emotionally safe (even if you haven’t turned back to porn)
✅ How to rebuild trust after porn through connection, not just checklists
✅ Why the “work” isn’t about doing everything — and how couples can redefine the process together
✅ A practical feedback loop that shows you what to focus on to quit porn week by week
✅ How to get back on track with quitting porn even after setbacks

Whether you're just starting your journey to quit porn or you’ve been on this path for a while and feel discouraged, this episode will help you slow down, reset, and take the next right step in your porn addiction help process.
