In this episode, Stephanie dives into how your automatic urge to release sexual tension may be quietly undermining your power, not building it. If you're used to chasing release through porn, masturbation, or even sex itself just to “feel okay,” you're stuck in a loop of dependency, not control. That ends here.Top Takeaways:✅ Release ≠ Power: Reacting to sexual tension by chasing release trains your nervous system to depend on escape, not presence.✅ Control the Charge: Sexual energy is neutral power until you learn to breathe through the discomfort and use it for clarity, action, and leadership.✅ Shift the Focus: Stop using sex as proof of masculinity. Start using your arousal as fuel for deeper presence and masculine composure. 🎯 Ready to improve your sex life?Apply to work with me:https://www.stephanieganowski.com/coaching-application-video/
