Episode #183: Porn vs Feminism: A Neuroscientist’s View — Dr. Trish Leigh (Part 5 of 7)

Is porn anti-feminist? As a recovering feminist — my answer is yes. But the truth goes deeper: porn is anti-human.I’m Dr. Trish Leigh — cognitive neuroscientist and author of Mind Over Explicit Matter. When I spoke on Jubilee’s Middle Ground with porn performers, I stood up for this: porn isn’t empowerment — it’s exploitation. Too many performers are groomed into the industry because they lack real education and support.Education is empowerment — that’s why I’m here. To help you break porn’s grip on your brain, your connection, your intimacy, and your humanity. Everything I share is backed by neuroscience, real data, and decades of study.🙏 Big thanks to Jubilee & LoveCommaNectar for opening up this tough but necessary conversation. If you haven’t watched the episode, feel free to — but if you’re in recovery, stay right here with me. I’ll help you unpack it safely and build real, healthy intimacy again.Control your brain — or it will control you.Send us a textSupport the showHi.

Episode #182: How Porn Affects Loyalty & Real Intimacy (Part 4 of 7)

Does porn disrupt loyalty in relationships? Yes — and science backs it up.I’m Dr. Trish Leigh,  a cognitive neuroscientist helping men break free from porn-induced brain dysregulation and intimacy struggles. As the author of Mind Over Explicit Matter, I combine science and empathy to guide people toward real connection. When I sat down with porn performers on Jubilee’s Middle Ground, this prompt came up. One performer said she used porn to spice up her relationship — but the truth is, that just ties your intimacy to hypersexuality, not real connection.Studies show porn rewires your brain for objectification, not bonding. Men who watch porn are more likely to see women as objects, not partners. Underneath it all is brain dysregulation — a hijacked reward system that kills true trust and real intimacy.Jubilee & LoveCommaNectar opened the door for this conversation — so if you haven’t seen the episode yet, check it out. Just a heads up: if you’re in recovery, stick here with me. I’ll break this all down with the science and help you rebuild real loyalty and healthy intimacy that lasts.Send us a textSupport the showHi.

Episode #181: Is Masturbation Damaging Your Brain? (Part 3 of 7)

I wasn’t addicted to porn — but I am here because someone I love was. And that changed everything.Is Masturbation Harmless or Harmful?I’m Dr. Trish Leigh, cognitive neuroscientist and author of Mind Over Explicit Matter. On Jubilee’s Middle Ground, I sat down with porn performers and NoFap voices to bring a different perspective: not personal addiction, but years of deep neuroscience, brain maps, and real recovery work.Most porn users don't even know they're addicted—they just feel anxious, unfocused, disconnected, and stuck in a loop. I've seen thousands of brains that prove how porn hijacks your dopamine, rewires your reward system, and blocks real intimacy. This ties into the larger question of: Is Masturbation Harmless or Harmful?Huge appreciation to Jubilee & LoveCommaNectar for hosting this raw, important discussion. If you haven’t watched it yet, you should — but trigger warning: if you’re recovering, stay here with me instead. This series breaks it all down with real science and real hope for real connection.Send us a textSupport the showHi.

Episode #180: Was Dr. Trish Leigh Addicted to Sex? (Part 2 of 7)

One of the big questions on Middle Ground was, “Were you addicted to porn?”If you’ve been here with me, you know — never. Not then, not now.I’m Dr. Trish Leigh, cognitive neuroscientist and author of Mind Over Explicit Matter. I sat down with porn performers on Jubilee’s Middle Ground because people need to hear the truth: porn addiction is a silent tsunami wrecking real lives and genuine relationships.The only reason I’m in this work is because someone close to me — my friend Sam — almost lost his marriage to porn. I couldn’t sit back. Once I saw how deep the damage goes, I knew my purpose was to help people like you break free.If you haven’t watched the episode yet, check it out — but heads up: if you’re in recovery, stay here with me instead.
