Summary

Whether you're into porn or you have a partner that is, we're chatting with Matt Sinkovitz about how his porn habits became compulsive and eventually led him to become a porn abstinence coach. We discuss how porn shapes our perception of sex, how porn addiction (and any addiction for that matter) can interfere with our relationships, and how people can reignite the passion in their actual relationships + marriages.
