Ask Us a Question!

Most couples don't see themselves as being afraid, but is it easier to assume than to ask the hard questions that may be true about our partner? David and Eileen then share some of their experiences with this and why it is an easy mindset to get into during this difficult time of the relationship. They also give some tools that can set you on the path to being more curious about your partner.

#56 - Is He Capable of Betraying Again — And Is She Capable of Rebuilding?

Ask Us a Question! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2440648/fan_mail/new] In this episode, David and Eileen dive into the powerful concept of "Capable" and what it truly means in the context of porn addiction, sex addiction, and recovery. They unpack the uncomfortable truth that both the addict and the betrayed partner must face — that we are all capable of various reactions to pain, and how refusing to acknowledge this can silently stall the healing process and delay genuine recovery from porn addiction. They also explore what "Capable" means from their own story, and how this can creep in at an early age to latch on to shame and negative beliefs. David and Eileen then challenge listeners to sit with this word and let it reshape how they approach porn addiction recovery, rebuilding trust after infidelity, and moving forward after the devastation of sexual betrayal.

#55 - AI Porn, Lust, and Our Kids: How We Can Affect The Future of Porn Addiction

Ask Us a Question! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2440648/fan_mail/new] In this week's episode, David talks about the future of AI and how it is already being used for pornographic purposes. How do we navigate the future of an industry that is harmful but is also going to double in the next 7 years? David addresses the core lust issue at work here, how lusting after real women or AI material traces back to the same lust habit, and ways we can talk with our kids about this to steer them towards healthy sexuality in a world that holds less and less interest in that line of thinking.

#53 - Comparing Your Recovery to Others: The Hidden Trap in Betrayal Trauma & Porn Addiction Healing

Ask Us a Question! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2440648/fan_mail/new] It's easy to look at someone further along in their recovery and feel like you're falling behind — but comparison can quietly become one of the biggest traps in betrayal trauma and porn addiction recovery. In this weeks Podcast, David and Eileen talk about what's really going on when comparison creeps in, how it differs from genuine self-reflection, and how to refocus on your own God-given pace without losing motivation or hope. Together, they unpack why measuring your healing against someone else's timeline has the potential to distort your progress, fuel shame, and pulls you out of the work that's actually in front of you.  If you've ever felt discouraged because you're "not as far along" as someone else, this conversation will help you reframe what real progress looks like.
