Hey, everybody, and welcome to another beautiful mastery Monday here on the Self
Mastery podcast. I'm your host, Zach Spafford.
Listen, I got something for you guys. I'm here to help you overcome
pornography. You guys know that right? I just want to let you know that there's
some stuff that's gonna change.
That's all. I'm not going to tell you what it is right now. But I'm going to
tell you something a little bit later in this podcast.
But these last few weeks have been a great deep dive into how you can really begin to
move past pornography by not just focusing on pornography, but focusing on how
you can become the person you want to be.
By the way, I just want to thank all of you who have written in and said how
much this has helped you. That's kind of awesome, actually, that you guys are
like, hey, you know what, this changed my life. So thank you for sending that
in to me. If you have a second, just take a moment and write a review that
helps people find us and all of this great content, more than anything else you
could do. You know, share it, obviously, with as many people as you can, but
writing reviews helps people find this. So please do that.
Many of you know that I am all about an evidence based approach to Overcoming Pornography.
You've probably listened to my episode about how pornography is not an addiction and the book by Dr. Lance Dodes, you may know Cam Staley, who is a PhD researcher out of the University of Idaho, a really great guy, quite like him.
You are probably thinking, okay, yes, we know that you like evidence. So not
only do I have the evidence from my own journey that I've shared with you, one
of the components of my coaching to Overcoming Pornography is based in
Acceptance and Commitment coaching, I call it ACC, which comes from Acceptance
and Commitment Therapy. Now, I'm not a therapist, but I have studied the
techniques and processes and systems that have helped 1000s of men and women
and their pornography struggle.
And I've done it myself, like, this is not pie in the sky. This is not, hey, you know what, let me tell you a theory, and I will help you figure it out. That's not it. This is real life. This is my journey. You are like, Yeah, I need somebody who's been there.
You know, I always talk about I have an MBA, and I've been in business for a long time,
before I became a coach, I, I was an insurance and I loved it. And I did some
other things that add some great, cool stuff. And I always think about, who's
the guy that I would come to, who's the person that I would go to, if I needed
help running my business. I would not even go to a Yale or a Harvard School
Business School professor, I would go to a guy who's actually lived the
process.
Some of you guys know Gary Vee, cool guy, I listen to his stuff, I don't listen
to a guy who works for Harvard. I don't, because I want to know what it looks
like to actually be in the trenches. And that's why I use ACC. And the coaching
that I do is based in both my real life experience and acceptance and
commitment, coaching. And then Acceptance and Commitment coaching, there's a
principle called the choice point. It is one of the key principles of ACC that
I use in the membership, which has been closed now to members to new members
for a little bit, a little while.
But I will tell you this, this month, I'm launching a new platform that will make it so
you can download a single app and get all the great content on your phone. So
I'm looking forward to it. And when it's ready, I will open up the membership
to anybody who wants to join. So keep an eye out for that.
When I talk about choice point, though, I want to go back to choice point because that's
really the point of what we're talking about. I want you to imagine a narrow,
long...
