Summary
In this episode, Corrine sits down with Chandler Rogers, founder and CEO of Relay, an app helping individuals find freedom from pornography through group-based connection, and creator of The November Project—a global movement aiming to help one million people live porn-free this month.
Chandler opens up about his own journey from secrecy and shame to healing and purpose, sharing how connection, not perfection, is what truly leads to recovery. He talks about navigating exposure to pornography in his teens, and the moment his mom’s loving honesty became a turning point that changed everything.
Together, they discuss how shame isolates us, but connection heals us, and why the opposite of addiction isn’t sobriety, it’s connection. Chandler also shares how vulnerability with his wife, Jade, helped reshape their marriage, and how they’ve learned to walk through imperfection with grace and teamwork.
From his personal story to his mission through The November Project, Chandler’s message is one of hope, healing, and redemption: that none of us are defined by our past, and that we all have the power to step out of isolation and into light.
Whether you or someone you love is struggling with addiction, or you simply need a reminder that healing is possible, this conversation will help you remember that you are not alone and that hope is always worth holding onto.

| 0:15.6 | Today I have Chandler Rogers with me, and we are going to talk about the November project, something that he and some other co-founders and people in this space started. |
| 0:28.8 | So Chandler, let's start with you first. |
| 0:32.1 | And then so just tell people for anyone who isn't familiar with you, who you are and what you do, what you're passionate about. |
| 0:39.1 | And then we can talk about the project that you guys started. |
| 0:42.1 | Yeah. No, for sure. So I never know where to start with these introductions. Like, do I start with the present or do I start with the past? But maybe I'll just give a quick origin story history. So I grew up moving around all over |
| 0:56.2 | the states. My dad changed jobs every four or five years. And so I think I lived in seven states |
| 1:02.6 | before I graduated high school. Family lives in Arizona right now. And I was the oldest of five kids, |
| 1:08.1 | which is part of my story later on, where I ended up getting exposed to |
| 1:13.1 | pornography, as is common for many young people, especially young men. And I was a teenager in |
| 1:18.9 | the era where Instagram and Facebook were really blowing up and becoming popular. It was something |
| 1:24.4 | that I didn't have to go seeking for, but it kind of found me and we can get |
| 1:29.7 | into my story later if that's interesting. But what I do now is I run an app that helps people |
| 1:35.4 | overcome pornography, whether it's due to pain its cause in their relationship or loss in |
| 1:42.9 | self-confidence or any other reason. |
| 1:45.0 | There's so many different reasons that people are affected by pornography, but I ended up starting an app about a few years ago after I graduated, |
| 1:52.0 | what actually started in college, but we ended up going full-time and making it an organization where we're working with some therapists and others to help really |
| 2:02.6 | just create resources that are more accessible for people that are dealing with this. So it's all |
| 2:06.2 | through the app. And yeah, that's what I do full time for work. I have a wife. I've been married |
| 2:12.7 | to her for six years now and we have a two-year-old son and number two on the way. That's so awesome. |
| 2:20.5 | Congratulations too. That's exciting. So tell me about, and we can go back to your story in a minute, |
