April 30, 2018 Episode 81: Stages of Relationships
Jackie and Jon examine the often confusing and arbitrary "relationship stages" we all expect to go through in every single one of our romantic relationships. We will take a look at questions like:
"Should I ever date friends?"
"How do I learn to listen to my intuition in my romantic relationships?"
"When is it the right time to 'move to the next level'?"
"How do I know when it's time to get out?"

April 24, 2018 Episode 80: What is Authenticity?

Jackie and Jon follow up on a nugget from a previous episode where we mentioned that authenticity was not expressed in emotionally vomiting.

April 16, 2018 Episode 79: Male Partners of Sex Addicts
We recently received an email from a listener who is a male partner of a female sex addict. He rightly observed that there are some special challenges in healing in those circumstances.

We are dedicating this epsiode today to examine why it can be extra painful for men who are with female sex addicts to get the help and support they may need.

We also mentioned resources for male sex addicts looking for qualified therapists to help them. www.sexhelp.com and https://www.apsats.org/specialists#!directory/map are good places to start.

March 26, 2018 Episode 76: Don't Shame Me!!!
In recent years, the world has been done a giant service by getting a deeper view of shame and how it affects us and our relationships. Awareness on this is becoming more and more mainstream.

Along with this awareness can come a tendency to paint with a broad brush and to rely on soundbites rather than a careful exploration of a complicated issue.

In this episode, Jackie and Jon take another look at shame and discuss situations where guilt (others like Pia Melody have called it healthy shame) is useful in recovery. Don't be quick to paint with a broad brush- we've continued to keep the experience of shame in our social evolution and in our DNA.

March 12, 2018 Episode 74: 3 Circles and the "Yes List"
Most people in recovery struggle to define all of the 'no's'- the things that they need to be aware of, stay away from or give up in order to maintain sanity and strong recovery. In this episode, Jackie and Jon discuss the 3 Circles method for sexual sobriety and make a case for the importance of focusing on 'yes' in recovery.

This concept comes from the 12-step fellowship SAA. You can read their source material here: https://saa-recovery.org/literature/abstinence/
