283: Navigating the Early Days


Listen Later

After the discovery of sex addiction or pornography addiction, couples often face difficult questions from friends, family, and their community. How much should you share? What boundaries are healthy? And how do you protect your relationship while you are still healing from betrayal trauma?

In this episode of the Faithful & True Podcast, Greg Miller is joined by Clinical Director Jim and Rebecca Dekkers to discuss how couples can navigate relational requests during the early days of discovery. They explore practical ways to set healthy boundaries, communicate honestly without oversharing, and protect the recovery process while rebuilding trust.

Whether you are a couple walking through the pain of betrayal or someone supporting a loved one in sex addiction recovery, this conversation offers helpful guidance for navigating relationships while prioritizing healing and growth.

Topics discussed in this episode include:
• Sex addiction and porn addiction recovery
• Betrayal trauma and relational boundaries
• What to share with friends and family after discovery
• Protecting your healing process as a couple
• Rebuilding trust and moving toward posttraumatic growth
