115. Roland Cochrun - Is Addiction More Common Than You Realize? Understanding Process Addiction and Why it Matters

Unhooked: Breaking Porn Addiction Podcast

Roland Cochrun is an entrepreneur, business owner, and investor. While Roland continues to be an authority in the medical field and personal branding industry, his full-time job is running small intensives for men who have developed sex and pornography addictions. He has completed training at the Institute of Sexual Health for Deceptive Sexuality and Trauma Treatment for infidelity and compulsive sexual behavior disorders. Since selling his rehab facility in 2019, Roland has been hosting small group intensives for high-achievers.
In this episode, Roland and I explore the truth about process addiction, how it differs from substance addiction, and why it's often overlooked in recovery conversations. We uncover how these hidden compulsions impact our lives—and what it takes to break free. If you're ready for a truly eye-opening conversation about addiction, identity, and fulfillment, this is one you don’t want to miss.
