  • Don’t wait, start listening now. Even if you are the spouse not the “user”

    I don’t Veiw porn but my husband does. He is not looking to change any time soon. I can’t change his actions, that’s his choice, but I can improve myself and I can be healthy in our relationship.

  • Worth the time

    I have been trying to overcome porn for over 2 decades. This podcast has helped me to finally see why I was turning to porn and given me concrete things to put into practice. I am not perfect yet but, by doing what Zach and Darcy talk about each week I have made more progress than the last 20 years. I appreciate their shame free approach to talking about porn.
