Sathiya Sam of DeepClean on How Men Can ...

Fit Father Project
About this episode

Episode 201 is about something a lot of guys don’t want to admit or talk about - porn addiction. 

In this episode, you’ll meet Sathiya Sam, a coach and speaker who helps men live with confidence and integrity. 

He’s also the author of The Last Relapse, the host of the Unleash The Man Within podcast, and the creator of DeepClean, a research-based and Bible-backed system for overcoming porn addiction.


And, yes, Sathiya is a recovered addict himself, and in this deep and raw conversation, he shares his personal story of struggling with porn addiction and his journey to freedom. 


We discuss how pornography affects individuals, relationships, and society as a whole, as well as the targeting of children by the porn industry and the need for parents to have open conversations about sex and pornography with their kids. 


We also dig deep into the impact of social media, particularly Instagram, on porn addiction and how faith, purpose, and values can help you recover and find the help you need. 


Key Takeaways:

  • Physical health habits, such as sleep, nutrition, and exercise, play a significant role in recovery and sustainability. 
  • Nighttime is a vulnerable time for relapse, and managing bookends of the day can help mitigate addictive behaviors. 
  • Social media can contribute to porn addiction due to the constant dopamine drip and the obsession with 'what's next.' 
  • Having a trigger plan is crucial in derailing the dopamine cycle of addiction. 
  • Confession and seeking help are powerful steps toward breaking free from addiction.
