Faith and Recovery: Dr. Michael Jaquith's Journey Beyond Porn Addiction

The more you turn to draw your sense of connection from that digital, the less able you are to draw it with a real human being. And this is just horrifying when you really start to think about this.
What happens when a chemist trades his lab coat for a life dedicated to helping others overcome addiction? In this episode of 'Emerge. Evolve. Lead.', Dr. Michael Jaquith shares his deeply personal story of recovery from porn addiction. Dr. Jaquith, who left the corporate world to become a life coach, brings a unique blend of scientific knowledge and spiritual wisdom to his approach.
His faith, particularly the teachings of the Catholic Church, plays a crucial role in his journey and coaching methods. Dr. Jaquith opens up about the challenges of addiction and the importance of forming genuine human connections over digital interactions. He discusses how addiction can strain relationships and emphasizes the need for vulnerability and community support in the healing process. This episode also delves into the impact of childhood experiences on adult behavior and the importance of breaking harmful generational patterns.
Listeners will find Dr. Jaquith's honesty refreshing as he talks about the discomfort that comes with growth and the necessity of surrendering control to achieve true recovery. He warns against judgment and blame, advocating instead for empathy and understanding in relationships. If you're on a journey of recovery, looking to cultivate healthier relationships, or seeking inspiration to step into leadership roles post-addiction, this episode offers valuable insights and hope.
Tune in to hear how faith and science can work together to guide you through the complexities of addiction recovery.
