Every Wednesday at 9PM EST Marie will be taking that uncomfortable growth a little bit further with live interviews, more scientific brain based ways to retrain and get the most out of our neurodivergent brains dealing with relationships, physical and mental well being and most of all embracing your beautiful unique brain that makes you-you.

In this conversation, Marie Martin explores the complex relationship between shame, pornography, and neurodivergence. She emphasizes that shame is often the real issue, not the act of consuming pornography itself. The discussion delves into the cycle of addiction, how it affects intimacy and connection, and provides actionable steps to rewire the brain for healthier habits and relationships. The importance of rebuilding trust and connection, especially for neurodivergent individuals, is highlighted, along with the message that individuals are not broken or dirty, but capable of change and growth.
