Don't Think I'm an Elephant

Porn is one of the most common traps for men to fall into. Many of us think it's harmless but the fact of the matter is porn use will steal the number one precious commodity in our life and that is our time. My guest today gives us a deep dive into the emotional and psychological impact that porn has on our brain, our lives, relationships, and even productivity.

A passionate and faithful promoter of mental health, Dr. Cameron Staley is a clinical psychologist dedicated to counseling and teaching psychology courses. Creator of the "Life After" series where he helps people improve their mental health by learning about the therapeutic approaches and research available.

He gave a TEDx talk, Changing the Narrative Around the Addiction Story, where he shared the details of his research and counseling experience on helpful ways to talk about sexuality and how to effectively reduce the viewing of unwanted pornography through mindfulness. He developed a self-directed online program called Life After Pornography, which is based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) concepts.

He co-authored a chapter on Personality Disorders for an Abnormal Psychology textbook and has published several research studies on sexuality.
