Episode #50 - This is Part II of a powerful and necessary conversation on the often-overlooked link between pornography and sexual dysfunction. In this episode of The Awakened Heart Podcast, I sit down again with Brooke Hazen, Erectile Dysfunction expert and author of You Are Not Broken, to dive even deeper into the neurological, emotional, and relational effects of porn use—particularly on men’s ability to bond with a partner.

With over 30 million men affected, Erectile Dysfunction has become the most common sexual issue today. But what if the real root cause isn’t physical at all? Brooke shares how porn addiction is silently shaping intimacy, crippling self-esteem, and eroding the emotional and physical connection between men and women.

We discuss:

The brain science behind porn-induced erectile dysfunction (PIED)
Why porn hijacks the bonding mechanisms meant for real-life connection
How ED creates emotional disconnection, shame, and trauma in relationships
What women can do to lovingly understand and support healing—not normalize or ignore it
How Brooke overcame his own challenges and developed a holistic approach to recovery
His book You Are Not Broken as a healing guide for couples and individuals
This episode is a wake-up call and a compassionate conversation about how we can restore sexual health, relational harmony, and deep connection in a world flooded with unrealistic stimulation and spiritual disconnection..
