No More Desire Reviews 25

I struggled a lot with self doubt and thinking that I had to be perfect all the time. Jake helped me see that there are beauties in imperfections and that they're a part of being human, along with helping me see the importance in painful emotions and how much sometimes we all need some grace. Over time he helped me see that difficult emotions are just another way for different parents of our mind to show us that they care or are in pain. This has helped me feel peace and helps me enjoy life a lot more.

Working with Jake has completely changed my perspective on life, and has helped me stay sober for over 5 months now. For the first time in years I feel fully connected, in harmony with myself and the principles I believe, but more importantly, at peace with who I am.

Jake's ability to connect and relate are unmatched, and I would leave every session feeling like my eyes had been opened to a new level of understanding on life that changed my self-talk, my relationship with my spouse and my ability to connect with my children.

Every lesson in the program felt incrementally tailored to my needs, and were exactly the building blocks I needed to be able to live and have a sobriety lifestyle and mindset.

I had already been pursuing recovery on my own through personal research and self-work when I was introduced to the No More Desire program. Right away, his approach resonated deeply with what I was learning about addiction and what I had been experiencing firsthand. Jake helped elevate my recovery to the next level, giving me a strong and sustainable foundation for long-term sobriety.

The program gave me a complete view of what drives addiction — not just the surface symptoms — and provided clear categories and lifelong tools that support me not only in recovery, but in every area of life. What makes No More Desire truly unique is its multifaceted approach. Jake recognizes that you are a whole person, and lasting recovery requires addressing every aspect of who you are and how each part influences both addiction and healing.

One of the most valuable elements for me has been the one-on-one coaching sessions. It was refreshing to have someone who genuinely understands what I’m walking through — someone I could be honest and vulnerable with. Jake has walked this path himself, and he practices what he teaches. He isn’t stagnant either — he continues to grow, refine, and improve his program to help men who are ready for deep and lasting transformation.

The investment of time, money, and effort has been more than worth it — not just for me, but for my family as well. For the first time, I feel a real sense of freedom from addiction. It’s like a huge burden has finally been lifted.

Thank you, Jake, for taking your own recovery and turning it into a life-changing program that helps other men break free and reclaim their lives.

I struggled for very many years with my addiction, but I have now been sober for six months. Over those many years, I made many attempts to overcome my addiction using only willpower, but those attempts all eventually resulted in relapse. Therefore, when I most recently resolved to break my addiction, I decided to also work with Jake.

Starting with my very first one-on-one meeting with him, Jake made me feel comfortable and at ease. With compassion, Jake helped me understand the roots of my addiction, and recognize that my addiction was actually a reflection of my core inner goodness. He provided tools and techniques that help one not only achieve and maintain sobriety, but to also become the best version of themselves. Jake also taught the important role that belief in a Higher Power can play in overcoming addiction, which strongly resonated with me.

I had multiple instense filters, accountability partners, etc. but in the end, nothing worked. I always felt as though without the filters I was garaunteed to relapse because in the end of the day, it was the same old me. I realized that I needed something deeper but I was not sure what that was or how to get it. When I first stumbled onto the No More Desire program I knew that I had found what I was looking for. Through Jake’s brilliant program and incredible coaching, he slowly and systematically changes how you relate to your cravings, your daily challenges, and ultimately yourself. I’ve been to therapy before for my addiction and nothing came close to the level of intensive wrap around care that you get from Jake! I would strongly recommend!!

I’ve been sober for 8 months now. This was my first attempt with anyone or any program, and I’m so grateful I chose No More Desire. Learning about myself and self acceptance is the best thing I got out of this program. Working 1 on 1 with Jake helped me tremendously. I was able to express what I was going through and he could relate while helping me understand what was really beneath the surface. I would highly recommend Jake as a coach, especially if you have a hard time with your emotions and self judgment. Thank you Jake for all you have helped me with."

I’ve been sober now for 7 months. My wife first got me introduced to No More Desire with Jake’s podcasts. After listening to a few episodes I could feel that what he was saying was truly hitting home for me. After doing some research I made by far the best decision to help my recovery. I set up a consultation with Jake. I was a train wreck when I had my first consultation. I felt like my life was in a downward spiral and I had no control over it. That’s where Jake stepped in. After the consultation I knew I had to join the program and I’m glad I made that decision. Not only does the program help you with your addiction but it goes and does something even better. It helps you become a better version of yourself. I’ve always thought of people offering to help that they’d just be trying to preach at you but that’s what is different with No More Desire. Jake has been in our shoes and is truly walking the walk. The program is gonna take a lot. You only get as much as you put into it. That being said if you feel like you truly do want to change your life contact Jake and get a consultation with him. My life has gotten so much better with the steps the program offers. I know I have a long road ahead of me but with the material and exercises from the program I feel confident I have a map to better roads ahead.

Finding his program felt like an answer to prayers. Not just for guidance, but for someone who truly sees you. From day one, it became clear I hadn’t just signed up for coaching. I had found a brother, someone who listened without judgment, who gently called out what needed work, and who constantly pointed me toward self-compassion and purposeful growth.
Jake has an incredible gift: he sees straight to the heart of the issue and knows how to speak truth in a way that empowers rather than shames. Every session left me feeling lighter, braver, and more hopeful.
Today, I’m approaching a full year of sobriety (one day at a time) and I can honestly say I wouldn’t be here without him. I wish every man who feels lost or stuck could experience what I did. Jake doesn’t just coach, he walks with you until you can walk on your own.

Here is my testimonial

I have had the privilege of working with Jake and having had the addiction for over 30 years I was running out of hope and believe me I tried everything . I had lost everything and more importantly I had lost hope

Jake through his skill and guidance gently steered me in the right direction and the new habits that I was starting to form suddenly transformed into a new life for me

Thank you Jake and I am so glad I found you

Before No More Desire, my methods of sheer willpower consistently failed. My relationship was on the brink of collapse from the betrayal and corrosion of trust. Jake helped me realize how both my lifestyle choices and deep emotional conflicts were feeding my addiction. With the knowledge that Jake offered, I was able to make the changes in my life that brought me more peace, purpose, and joy. This in turn has put me in the position to conquer my battles each day and continuously put myself on the path away from lust to a life of fulfillment. Jake is an absolute joy to work with, and is able to break down complex feelings into digestible parts. You can feel that his understanding of the turbulent emotions of porn addiction comes from a place of deep personal understanding. Jake always has the words you need to hear, and will feel more like a warm friend who is fully invested in you success than anything else.

Before No More Desire, I tried to fight with willpower alone and failed repeatedly. This was the first structured program I joined, and it’s been life-changing. What makes it stand out is how Jake goes deep, helping you uncover the emotions driving your actions, like shame, fear, or grief. That emotional awareness alone has helped me grow.

One thing that really made me buy in was how Jake emphasizes the spiritual side of recovery. As someone who believes in Jesus Christ, realizing that I can’t do this without God at the center was huge. Knowing I have a coach who supports me spiritually makes all the difference.

I’ve learned that every action I take either feeds sobriety or addiction. This program taught me to sit with my emotions, lead my thoughts, and build routines around fitness, nutrition, and mental health. I’m showing up more in life, not isolating, and people around me see the difference.

I spent many years in denial about my problem, blind to how my actions and behavior hurt myself and those around me. I had tried traditional therapists in the past, but none provided the solutions or tools I needed to overcome my addiction on a day-to-day basis. Jake, however, directly relates to what I am going through, and it gave me comfort to know that I am not alone in my struggles and that I can overcome my addiction. He has given me the tools and support I needed to get through some of the most difficult times of my life. It has truly been life-changing. I have been sober 7 months now. I have strengthened my relationships with my spouse, children, and friends. I am more present with those around me, more mindful of my own emotions, and am beginning to take back control of my life.

At the time I reached out to Jake, I was in a difficult spot. I wanted to perfect my sobriety, and I knew 'perfect' needed professional one on one help. It was perfect timing finding Jake. Because he had gone through what I had, he knew what I was going through. He helped me get back on track with my recovery through our weekly sessions. I found them very helpful, as I shared my struggles and wins throughout the week with him. I also had assignments each week that helped me develop a recovery lifestyle and mindset - something I wanted and needed in my life. After working with Jake, I feel like I’m in a much better place mentally to deal with life’s challenges and to not use my addiction to cope. Doing the deep work with Jake has brought me peace of mind, happiness and self acceptance. I’m a better husband, father and person because of our work together.

I found out about Jake through his podcast and was intrigued. The experience working with him has been great to date. I’ve worked with many therapists and coaches over the years. Jake stands out partly because he cares so deeply and is so eager to help. He sees my problems and is almost as excited as I am to solve them. I hear him furiously typing notes on his keyboard when we’re talking, and I hear “I am deeply invested in your success” in every keystroke. I love his enthusiasm to continually find new ways to help his clients. Big fan of Jake!

“I found Jake’s podcast because I was struggling with staying sober on my own. I decided to commit to getting help directly from Jake and it’s been fabulous. He is insightful and knowledgeable - he dealt with what we are all dealing with so he truly understands our struggle. My conversations with Jake are deep and help me understand why I’m an addict, why I struggle with staying sober and how I’m going to heal once and for all. The daily assessments in Jakes program are critical. They really make you think….”why am I like this’…..as you dig down and really think about your issues you can begin to solve your issues. I’ve been working with Jake for a few months now and I will continue. His program works - plain and simple. I strongly recommend Jake and his system, it’s the real deal”.

Before I started this program my life and marriage were in shambles. I had no clue how to control my addictions. I had beaten alcoholism, quit smoking but could never on my own kick porn and sexting. I fell upon this program searching through podcasts on porn addiction and thought "Wow, this Jake guy actually seems pretty awesome" unlike a lot of the other guys I listened to. Jake's program has transformed my life. It has dug deeper into the "why" to my addictions and taught me countless ways to battle against my addictions. Before starting this program, I dealt with high anxiety and depression to go along with my addictions. Using Jake's methods I have got myself to a much better spot in life. I deal with little to no depression, my anxiety is no more than your average Joe, and my marriage is pretty close to better than ever. Thanks to the things I have learned with this program I am the happiest with myself that I have ever been in my life. Jake's guidance has been above and beyond what I was expecting I'd get out of this. Having someone that has dealt with the same things as myself and can communicate with me more like a peer than someone who thinks they're better than you is a really big thing for me. I have always had a hard time sharing things, but Jake makes it very no pressure, just come as you are. Simply put, Jake and this program have changed my life and I can honestly say I wouldn't be where I am today without this.

When I first started meeting with Jake, I was in a dark place, feeling alone, betrayed, and unworthy. I didn’t think I deserved my family’s support. But as I continued our sessions, I began to see myself and my mistakes differently. With Jake’s guidance and tools, I managed to climb out of the hole I had dug for myself. He taught me strategies to develop new habits and thought patterns, helping me shift my perspective. Instead of dwelling on my flaws and mistakes, he showed me how to view them more positively. Having someone to talk to gave me the courage to share my addiction with my family and gain their support. Much of the happiness and fulfillment I experience now is thanks to Jake.

Before I was with Jake, I felt like I tried everything to overcome but it seemed like no matter what I did, I could never get over it. Jake's program has taught me exactly what I need to overcome for good and have no desire (hence the name). I’m still working everyday and creating the lifestyle that Jake has taught me to be able to be sober long-term. But for now, I just feel so much happier and so much more free. I feel like I can manage my thoughts and feelings and truly control them. My relationships are better since being with Jake and his program. He is one of the nicest dudes you will ever meet. He never judges but always gives amazing advice at the right moments. I totally recommend him!!! You won’t regret it!

My life & marriage was beginning to feel bleak & unmanageable when I began, but already I am finding hope & confidence as I give 100% effort to work the program. The biggest benefits that differ from other therapeutic approaches I have tried include working with someone who has overcome addiction themselves, daily accountability through check ins, vision focused writing assignments, & faith based recovery. I have grown to trust Jake & know he genuinely cares about his clients. I am confident I will beat my addiction & enjoy lasting sobriety. I recommend this program to those truly seeking to change!

I tried many things to address my addiction such as screenshot accountability, internet filters and talk therapy. Whilst these methods were somewhat helpful, I still struggled regularly. After a few months of listening to the No More Desire podcast, I decided to set up a consultation with Jake. This turned out to be the most significant step I've ever taken in my struggle against porn addiction. Being in the programme has already yielded so many benefits. I've learned how to identify the underlying stresses and anxieties fuelling my addiction cravings. I'm also learning how to adopt a recovery mindset centred around acceptance and surrender, as opposed to resistance and judgement. Jake is a very compassionate and encouraging coach, who has a real desire to see growth in his clients. I would highly recommend the programme.
