Unhooked: Breaking Cycles, Building Discipline w/ Jeremy Lipkowitz
About this episode
In this transformative episode, we sit down with Jeremy Lipkowitz—a former Buddhist monk, meditation teacher, and ICF-certified executive coach—who now helps high-achieving men break free from compulsive behaviors like porn addiction and reclaim lives of integrity, focus, and deep fulfillment. Jeremy opens up about his personal journey from academia to the monastery, how shame and addiction nearly consumed him, and what it truly takes to become unhooked from self-sabotaging habits. We dive into the neuroscience of addiction, the role of emotional intelligence in healing, and the daily disciplines that create lasting change. Whether you're battling compulsive behavior or simply seeking a life of greater clarity and purpose, this conversation will challenge, ground, and inspire you.
