About this episode
In this episode, we finally dive deep into a topic we’ve lightly touched on before—pornography, unwanted sexual behavior, and sex addiction. We focus especially on how these aspects show up in marriages and long-term relationships. What exactly is sex addiction, and is it even real? Is porn use within a marriage ever healthy? How can partners tell the difference between occasional use, compulsive patterns, and full-blown addiction?
We explore the emotional toll on both parties, what accountability and recovery can look like, and what betrayed partners can do to support themselves. Whether you’re personally impacted or just curious, this honest conversation offers clarity, support, and hope.
