In this vlog, Samir Gardner, a porn‑recovery coach, shares a day‑in‑the‑life update while traveling between Morocco and Los Angeles. He contrasts the climate and lifestyle of Morocco with Canada, noting how the warmer environment allows more outdoor health activities but also introduces distractions. Samir explains his April travel schedule, the limited travel experience he had before 2025, and his plans to visit other locations such as LA, Portugal, Czechia, Florida, Dubai, and Bali. He outlines his professional workload: coaching clients to quit porn, masturbation, and lust; producing YouTube content; writing multiple drafts of a book; and developing an app with a former client. He discusses a selective mentorship program where he will fly out to two mentees for intensive two‑day coaching. Samir also reflects on personal weaknesses—his French accent affecting English pronunciation and a lack of confidence in creative tasks—linking these to his goal of becoming the leading authority in porn‑recovery. Health concerns are mentioned, including chronic sleep deprivation (4‑5 hours per night), gym fatigue, and the need to avoid burnout. The vlog ends with plans for future content, equipment upgrades, and a call to viewers to reach out for coaching.

All right guys, so we're in the hotel. Got my haircut done. Let me know what you guys think. Basically, it's pretty cool country, man. Morocco is like, the weather is way better than living in the Western world, except if you live like in Florida like most people I know. But, uh, in Canada, man, the weather is so, so, so trash that you don't even want to go outside, right? Which is a blessing and a curse because, you know, you get to work more on the things that matters to you if that's your type of lifestyle, because that, that's my lifestyle. And here there's more distractions. I mean, you can go to the pool, can go out, uh, play some sports, whatever. I don't do anything degenerate. I don't drink, I don't go party, anything. So living here, at least I get to tan, at least I get to spend time outside and really take care of more of my health than just like spending all day long, uh, inside in Canada. So it's pretty cool, man. So guys, I'm back home from Morocco. As you can see, I'm in my apartment here. You can see the setup behind me that I use. The point of this whole video on YouTube is to show you guys, in this month of April, I'm gonna be traveling more than usual. I have the opportunity to travel because I've been invited by other people. I've had some connections and everything, which is amazing. And basically, I want to show you guys, you know, the life— oh man, I have this annoying, uh, sound that I need to get rid of. But basically I wanna be able to show you guys really just some day-to-day stuff because I'm here uploading videos and helping people actually how to quit porn, masturbation, lust, and it's working very well, right? We have like such a good success rate when it comes to the coaching, but also through the YouTube videos, I've had plenty of messages of people who I just, I realized they realize themselves, but also I realized like based on what they said that, you know, they are becoming free from More Emancipation Less and also people within the free community that we have, right? And so I'm just thinking, you know, just showing my life, right? Just showing like what I'm doing day to day. Obviously traveling is not like something I'm really used to. Before 2025, I basically didn't travel outside of Canada once. I don't remember the last time I traveled before 2025. I think maybe it was like 2015. I'm not kidding. If I remember correct, maybe that's an exaggeration. I think it was like 2018. I went to New York, but that's it, right? And so it's like, I want to show you guys the places I'm going to travel to, right? Like, okay, we went to Morocco this month, I had some family there. Now we're gonna go, I don't know yet, for the middle of the month. I'm supposed to, you know, maybe it's going to be LA, maybe it's going to be Portugal, maybe it's going to be Czechia. We're still trying to decide based on like the availability when it comes to the tickets and everything, what will be the best option. And obviously this lifestyle of constantly traveling, to be honest, I'm not like the most passionate. I'd rather work on meaningful things than to travel constantly if I had to choose between the two. Obviously, traveling is still very nice, right, to get to meet different cultures. But the only problem is when you're traveling, it's like I'm very disciplined. I can work on my stuff, on my projects. For example, in Morocco, I was working until 3 AM, almost 4 AM, almost every day basically, right? But then it's like I was still just working like 4 hours a day, and I'm used to work at least 10 hours a day every day here. Where I live, right? I'm just locked in my apartment. So it's like, you know, I'm just thinking, is traveling gonna hold me back from, for example, like I need to write the second version of my book. So the second draft, I mean, and the second draft, you know, I plan on having like 5 different drafts, right? That we don't wanna perfect this book as much as possible and constantly adjust it so it's easier to read. And also I can like really share the insights in a very, very, I mean, the best way I can, right? So like anyone can understand it and anyone can become free and they can have like, a worldwide impact. I'm also planning to work on an app with one of my clients. He's helping me with this. He's like a developer and everything. So he's gonna help me with that. Also working on the new videos for my students, working on this YouTube here. We made a video reacting to this guy that spent $20,000 on OnlyFans and it got like 3K views, which is amazing to me. Like that, that's a lot for me at the moment. So tomorrow we're gonna record a day in the life 'cause I wanna show my life more and upload that during the month of April. And yeah, I'm just excited. And also like one of the things that I plan on doing, I mean, I actually launched basically a few days ago or even like more than a week ago, was the next 2 guys that joined the mentorship. Now I don't wanna say this to pressure anyone because this is something which I'm being like very selective about, right? But the next 2 guys that joined the mentorship, I will personally fly out to them and coach them for basically 2 days, like spend 2 days with them as a bonus, obviously with the full mentorship, right? With all of the one-on-one calls, with all of the videos, the courses, all of the materials, access to the book, access to the workbook, everything. They're gonna get access to all of those things. So it's like, I'm excited to that. If you live like somewhere like Germany, because I want to visit like Germany, Austria, Belgium, Netherlands, if you live somewhere like this, this will be perfect. But anyone that lives like in Canada, USA, Europe, like the western part of Europe, and even Australia, New Zealand, or even some of these like more, uh, developed like Asian countries, would, uh, whether that be like Japan, China, or let's say like Singapore, whatever, hit me up, right? If you want to get into the coaching as well, right? If you really want to quit porn, masturbation, lust, and really take the rest of your life to another level, then just reach out to me. But anyways, you know, at the moment we're just here working as much as possible. We're not sleeping, you know, that many hours, man. We're sleeping like 4 hours a night, 5 hours a night, max, which kind of like is taking a toll on me because sometimes I'm at the gym, I'm just like, man, I'm tired, and then I just pass out after the gym, right? I just like, I go on my bed for like 2 seconds and then boom, I just fall asleep. So it's like we gotta be able to work hard, and it's amazing to be able to work hard and not sleep as much, but to a certain point, like, you don't want to— like, I don't believe in burnout, but like, you know, you don't want to like overwork yourself to the point where it's like living is not as appealing anymore. Not in a suicidal sense, obviously, but as in like waking up in the morning feels a bit weird. It's 1:21 AM, so we're about to go to sleep. We can barely see anything. So guys, show you, got the bed here. Um, you think like for the Dubai to Bali, it would be better if we book now? Yeah.
So guys, This is beautiful.
This is looking sick.
Iconic Santa Monica Pier. Are you— gotta probably unlock it. Okay, this is a self-driving car, bro.
First thing I see when I come in here is an inner circle chat. Get out.
Oh shit.
Hello.
From Waymo as we get going.
Bro, I swear if we get into an accident, I'm We got the new glasses. What do you guys think? So guys, we're here enjoying LA. Um, man, you can see my skin is literally burnt because I never been in this, the real hot summer. But we're enjoying life and yeah, LA is beautiful. Yeah, I know.
I was like, is this gonna be my life?
Like, all right, thanks, sir. Okay, let me find the address of the place. I think I'll just put Cheesecake Factory and then—
yeah, it's just Keep on going, going, going, going, going. Like that? Yes, like that.
Guys, I'm a bit sick, as maybe you can tell, but basically I realized something. I need to work on two weaknesses, okay? The first weakness I have is my pronunciation. When I talk, since my first language— if you guys didn't know, my first language is French— uh, in English, my accent sometimes gets the best of me, right? And so I need to— and sometimes even with words, right? Like I deal with like complicated matters when it comes to psychology, right? Because we're talking about putting porn, masturbation, and overall psychology. I'm working on, for example, I'm helping other people with issues in regards to eating from their past and issues to overall trying to let go of social anxiety and all of those things, right? And so I need to have a certain level of pronunciation that sometimes isn't there. My students, they still understand me. But I just, I need to work on this, right? Like I cannot be like a professional because my plan is to really take over this space in the sense of being the authority, the go-to, and also the guy that actually helped like millions of people quit porn and masturbation forever and as byproduct improve other aspects of their lives drastically. But I need to have like a proper, like almost American accent. At the moment I still have this French accent, which I don't really like. And second thing, my creativity is not the best. It has never been, actually. I still remember when I was younger, in my childhood, when I was in school, right? And there was basically the art teacher, right? And we had to like draw different things, and you know, like how it goes with, you know, drawing and just like painting and stuff. And what I realized is I was not just bad at drawing and painting and stuff, but I also held the limiting belief regarding that, right? I held the limiting belief because of the people around me that would laugh at my paintings, my drawings, and the art teacher just being disappointed with my arts. I was literally the worst in the class. People will laugh at me for this, right? And I don't really blame them because I was actually bad, right? And so whenever it comes down to, for example, I'm gonna build projects and the app I'm making, the book I'm making, when it comes to designs, when it comes to like things that, uh, require me to not just use my logical part of my brain, but also my, the creative part of my brain, it's kind of like hard for me to be honest. It's very hard for me. So what I usually do is just ask someone or I look at what someone else is doing in order to really see how can I do it on my own, but make it kind of similar to them, or can I hire someone that can do it for me? So I don't have to think, right? And so that's one of my weaknesses, because if you create, you know, if you're creative, you can do so many things, right? I'm just good logically, right, with numbers and stuff. So I don't know, maybe it's a strength, but I feel like as if it's a weakness. So now, man, we're going to travel. Next vlogs, we're going to travel. I'm planning to also do a vlog on how we're going to build an app for people— I mean, for people— for people that want to quit porn masturbation. Right? I want to do it with one of my clients. He is like a software developer. Since he quit the porn and masturbation and lust, he wants to also be part of the impact. So that's what we're going to work on. Sorry for my eyes, the, the litchi dead because of my seasonal allergies. But so we're going to travel to potentially maybe Florida, uh, meet some clients there, which is going to be amazing. And then we're going to go to Dubai potentially for a few days because I got invited there. And then we are supposed to go to Bali, Indonesia. It might not be the— again, I got invited there, so it's, it's like I do want to leave Canada for a good amount of time and really just build, uh, another chapter of my life. So that's what I'm gonna do essentially. And we don't know yet which country I'm gonna be located in, but I can't wait to just go through like another season of growth, right? And this year the goal is to launch the app and also the book, right? Even though the book is technically finished. I'm still doing many drafts so I can have the best version of it, right? But I hope you guys enjoyed this vlog. Is— I feel like this is not the best vlog. I actually finished editing it and everything, but I feel like it's not the best because I didn't really record much. Now I got a new camera that I can use for vlogs specifically, so I cannot wait to use it and show you guys everything, man.
