Listener discretion is advised.

In this week's episode, D.J. talks with Ken, a person in long-term recovery from early childhood sexual abuse and sexual addiction. Ken has been a longtime mentor and friend to D.J. He shares his harrowing story of abuse by a trusted adult from his childhood and the subsequent battle with sex addiction that resulted from the early trauma. 

Hosted by D.J. Burr - a Seattle psychotherapist and author of I Just Wanted Love: Recovery of a Codependent, Sex and Love Addict. 

Each episode of Journey On features real life accounts of sexual abuse and assault. You may be triggered by what you hear. I advise self-care tools; reaching out to a friend, seeing your therapist, picking a new time to listen to the show, or even listening with a group of friends. Take care of yourself first.
