On today's episode of Power and Strength Radio, I had the pleasure of sitting down with and interviewing my good friend Joe Pacheco.  Joe is a police officer, Swat team operator and a former Marine.  He is also a husband, dad and a man looking to live a flourishing life.  Joe was gracious and vulnerable enough to share his story and the strength he gained on the other side of dealing with an addiction to pornography.  Here is some of what we talked about today: Joe's earliest encounter with pornography How he first recognized that something was wrong How he went to the internet and found out that it is more complex issue than just watching something How he battled the shame and guilt over the issue and the strength in his relationship working through it Why disconnectedness and lack of real relationship is part of the issue How Men can actually beat this addiction through being open and vulnerable with others, especially other powerful men ...So Much More! -------------------------------------- Books and other resources referenced in this episode: www.fightthenewdrug.org The Demise of Guys: Why boys are struggling and what we can do about it by Phillip Zimbardo Resilience:  Hard-Won Wisdom for living a better life by Eric Greitens 5 Marks of a Man:  Finding your path to Courageous Manhood by Brian Tome Dr. Gary Wilson : Your Brain on Porn (www.Youtube) ----------------------------------------- FIND ME HERE: IG: @ethos_of_strength www.youtube.com/ethosofstrength
