Lessons from Camren Harris's story.

Rather than only focus on changing porn habit, Camren found it helpful to say, "Let's build Camren into who he wants to be." And that's what took care of the porn habit.

Rather than focus on trying to find the "right" way, find what works for Camren.

How he turned an unwanted habit from a "monster" to "an ant I can flick off my shoulder."

How he saved his marriage.
