In this episode of the Restorative Man Podcast, Chris Bruno and Jesse French are joined by Drew Boa from Husband Material to discuss the journey of sexual and emotional maturity for men, focusing on the early exposure to pornography and its long-lasting effects. Drew shares his insights on how pornography acts as a ''sexualized solution to our pain,'' and emphasizes the importance of awareness, understanding, and healing from these early experiences to achieve true freedom. The conversation also delves into the detrimental effects of silence and toxic shame around sexuality, as well as the need to ''befriend our sexuality'' and heal the inner child within for lasting change.
