It’s no secret. Shame often follows pornography even if you aren’t the user, especially in relationships. What are people thinking? Rhyll Crowshaw experienced this when her husband came to her with a sex addiction, and she had to decide how to move forward in their relationship. She discusses how to dispel the fear and shame that comes when worrying about others’ judgments, and work through betrayal trauma when a partner is struggling. 

In this episode: 

• Pornography addiction is traumatizing to a partner because it is a form of rejection.
• Work towards being trustworthy and trusting another person. 
• There has to be a spiritual connection to find recovery. 
• Healing looks like courage, confidence, faith, peace, and serenity.
