Episode notes
Join A Group To Stop Feeling Alone
- Get into community and recovery to normalize intrusive thoughts and reduce the belief that you're unique.
- Harrison says support groups made him realize others thought similar things, which dismantled the lie of being alone.
Neutrality Over Moralization Of Attractions
- Viewing attractions neutrally removes moral weight and reduces urgency to 'fix' before living.
- Harrison learned to say "he's an attractive guy, period," which let him honor progress without waiting for full resolution.
Take Small Redemptive Risks
- Take small redemptive risks instead of endlessly editing yourself; let faith guide measured steps.
- Jason and Harrison recommend listening to the Spirit and slowly stepping into vulnerability that 'shows off' God's work in you.
