Caller Jared's Question: "Why does recovery work stress me out? Doing things like daily work, connecting to God, avoiding slips are all still hard for me. I feel like I am doing something wrong. I have been in this state for several years now and cannot seem to grasp full recovery. It's like I am stuck in 75% recovery."

Caller Brooke's Question: "I have been with my husband for 10 years since I was 17. We have 4 kids. I so deeply love the life we have built. I recognize I don’t have anything except this. It has now been revealed that my husband has consistently used porn since he was 6 years old. He has used porn daily throughout our entire marriage. I now understand that I am not in the marriage and partnership I thought I was. After all of this came out and he committed to no porn. He binged porn on a 4-day work trip, he continued to lie about it for almost two months. My question is What path am I supposed to take? I want the marriage I thought I had but I understand that is gone. Is it possible to have an honest, connected marriage? Is this something that will just always be an issue and always a problem between us? What does my future look like?"

In This Episode:

Ten years ago, Brooke married her husband. Five years into their marriage, he confessed to having a daily pornography habit. This revelation has left Brooke feeling unseen and hurt. She has been struggling to understand why he would choose pornography over their relationship. Brooke is working on rebuilding trust and creating a safe space for her husband to share his struggles while navigating her own needs for healing and connection.

1. The impact of pornography on relationships

2. The importance of honesty and transparency in relationships

3. The difficulty of navigating emotions in relationships

Therapy Brothers Discussion: Brannon and Tyler process some of the obstacles they're facing in doing therapy with their clients.

"I'm a therapist, and I've been working with a lot of couples lately. I've seen a lot of success when both people in the couple are working hard on their individual recoveries. But lately, I've been running into a sticking point with some of my couples. I see one person working really hard on their recovery, and the other person appears to be working hard too. But for some reason, the marriage isn't getting any better. I'm puzzled by this. I'm not sure what the answer is. But I think it might have something to do with values. Maybe the couple is incompatible in some ways?"

"The truth is, if all of us had to wait until we were perfect to help somebody else, nothing would ever get done."

In This Episode:

1. What may happen when both people in a couple are working hard on their individual recoveries, but the relationship itself is not improving?

2. How can therapists help couples negotiate their differences in values?

3. What is the role of the therapist's own values in working with clients?

Reclaim Your Heart Conference: https://reclaimyourheart.net/conference

Therapy Brothers Discussion: How do Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and experiential therapies help heal trauma and allow us to reach our potential? Do you struggle with trauma and addiction? Are you looking for a way to get trust, safety, and healing? Do you know how to Face the beast and slay it? What if the key to healing your traumas and fears was to face them head-on?

"I was sitting in a therapy session recently, working through some EMDR with my client. We were trying to find the target memory to start with. My client found her target memory and selected it. But when we tried to start the EMDR work, we hit a block. I asked her what was going on, and she explained that she had an image in my mind of a room full of glass compartments. I asked her to take something out of one of the compartments, but she was afraid that if she took one out, it would all come crashing down on her. She was afraid to confront her past trauma because she didn't know how to deal with it all."

In this episode:

1. How we often prevent ourselves from healing past trauma

2. The importance of getting out of our own heads and purely logical thinking to connect our mind with our heart

3. How experiential modes of therapy and other trauma therapies can help us reprocess our memories in a safe and powerful way.

Caller Madison's Question: "My husband and I have been going through our recovery journey for the last 4 years. We’ve done a lot of therapy, listening to your podcasts, and learning all we can to strengthen our marriage but there are still times every so often that my husband relapses and acts out.

Recently, Todd has been traveling for work, which has made it difficult to stay on track. However, he has been working hard to overcome his addiction and is hopeful for the future.

"I just feel like there's such a lack of manhood in our society that we need more of that."

In this episode:

1. The impact of relapses on Todd and his wife's relationship

2. Todd's journey to find emotional safety from his past

3. How to create goals for manhood and helping other men

Therapy Brothers Discussion: We love talking about these themes and two different styles of energy: "Masculinity empowers femininity, and femininity empowers masculinity".

In This Episode:

1. The difference between masculine and feminine energy, and how they work together.

2. The importance of being authentic and in alignment with one's true nature.

3. The strength and endurance of feminine energy.

Caller Heather's Question: "My husband and I have been married 22 years together 26. We have a complex relationship, and to be honest, I’m not even sure where to start. I have had intense trauma from my husband since we were dating. In 2014 I discovered a text from a stripper, that story took months to tell and it changed all the time, I discovered some other relationships but again the story is never the same. We both have significant childhood trauma that I know affects us. We both love each other but I’m concerned about my safety, I’m not allowed it because he didn’t do anything wrong. He still defends himself and has an excuse for everything. I don’t trust my gut anymore between the gaslighting and the manipulation I’m a wreck and need help knowing where to start the healing process if my spouse isn’t willing to do anything. Any advice or direction would be so appropriate, I’m not living in my truth and I know a lot of my daily struggles come from feeling stuck and alone."

If you're feeling like your relationship isn't as safe and connected as you want it to be, this episode is for you.

In This Episode:

1. How being a caretaker in a relationship can impact your decision making

Caller Brad's Question: "I’ve struggled with sexual addiction since childhood. Now I’m married and have kids of my own. Several times I’ve started on the path to recovery but I don’t know that I’ve ever done it for the right reasons. I’ve heard over and over again that recovery doesn’t begin until the pain of the addiction becomes worse than the pain of healing. I am tired of having to admit to church leaders and my wife that I’m struggling. I’m tired of not getting things done at work because I’m distracted. I’m tired of not really knowing who I am. However, there’s still a part of me that’s holding on to this as a source of relief and in fear of the recovery process. How do I get to the point that I want to do this for myself and not just for my wife or for anyone else?"

In This Episode:

1. Why do people act out? What does it do for them?

2. What is "recovery"? What does it look like?

3. A dive into the question of "Who are you?"

"Recovery is the uncovering. It's the unearthing of your actual authentic identity, a congruent life with your values of really who God says that you are."
