Porn Apart: Recent Episodes

Porn Apart

As if being married wasn’t challenging enough, enduring a husband who uses pornography is a daily roller coaster of heartache and tragedy. But it doesn’t have to stay this way. By the grace of God, I chose to reject the notion that freedom from porn was a lost cause in my marriage. If you’re ready to quit fighting against your husband and instead go to battle FOR him, Porn Apart was made for you. Each episode is designed to draw you closer to Jesus, give you encouragement from the Bible, and teach you strategic ways to love and uplift your husband as he battles his addiction.

Before listening to Episode 30 on SMART Goals, make sure you listen to the companion episode #29 “Is it OK to Set Spiritual goals?” These two episodes go together?

You’ve probably heard the saying “Failing to plan is a plan to fail.” So how exactly does one make a plan to grow spiritually? You make plans that are Smart, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Timely (or Time bound). But considering these 5 areas as a part of your goal making process, you will set your self up for great success–even in growing spiritual.

It’s taken me a while to learn how to take good care of myself. In fact, I’m still learning. I jumped on this unscripted episode and shared about how I took two days to clean house–literally and figuratively. I planned and blocked time to get some house chores done–while also having some much needed alone time focusing on self-care.

I once heard a pastor describe evangelism as “one beggar telling another beggar where to find bread.” This is also a great way to describe how I feel about being a recovery coach for wives whose husbands are dealing with pornography addiction. I found a path to hope and healing and now I’m blessed to be able to share with others on the same journey. This episode is an interview with one wife who went through a coaching series with me and was able to make huge strides.

We all need tools to do all sorts of jobs. Sometimes having a tool that’s made for the specific job you’re trying to accomplish matters. To drive a nail, you can whack it with wrench, but using a hammer makes more sense and does the job well.

Today on the show we discuss a tool that couples can use to work on their connection—their non-sexual intimacy. The tool is an acronym called FANOS:

Feelings

Affirmations

Needs

Ownership

Struggles

On the show a member of our Facebook group for wives shares about how FANOS 8/ helping in her recovery journey with her husband. Join that group here:

One of these things is not like the other. Today I dive into a real talk explanation of the common mistake people make when they equate sobriety and recovery. Discovering the mystery and meaning that separates these two is key to make progress in porn addiction and in recovering form porn betrayal.

This episode is a bit of a heavy one. But it contains truth I think we need to hear–but that we don’t like to talk about. Porn use and porn addiction is no simple sin. Here are my three big ideas for this episode:

  1. Porn use and porn addiction occur on a spectrum
  2. Porn use is never casual and never “stable” (it always progresses)
  3. The progression of porn deviates in a couple of trends

I intentionally left out a positive perspective, or a well-rounded “look on the bright side” closing to this episode. There is no bright side to porn use.

On this episode I tackle a topic that I wasn’t thrilled to explore. In fact it brought up some difficult feelings and memories for me. Please proceed with caution here and do a good job caring for yourself. Stop listening and step away if you need to. In this episode I discuss three big ideas surrounding the question, “Is Porn Abuse?”

  1. Porn is infidelity.
  2. Porn use is hurtful and leads to trauma
  3. Abusive behaviors are often linked to porn use.

There’s a lot more to this topic than I cover, but I do my best to tip my toe in the water to wrestle with this difficult concept.

You’ve probably heard the oxygen mask analogy before. But why does everyone use this analogy and how does it apply to enduring your husband’s pornography use?

In this episode I share three key ideas on why you need to be focusing on your own self-care and well-being before you can begin to do anything in regards to your husband and his well-being or addiction. .

  1. You can’t do anything about the plane going down.
  2. God has a plan for YOU and cares about YOU.
  3. You can’t serve anyone else if you are suffocating.
