Episode show notes:
How can a wife ever feel secure again after pornography use?
How do you know real change is happening—and that he won’t fall back into old patterns?
In this episode of the Couples Healing From Pornography Addiction podcast, we walk through four clear indicators that show when a man is doing the kind of work that actually prevents returning to pornography and helps rebuild emotional safety in a marriage.
This conversation is designed for both wives and husbands.
For wives, it speaks directly to the fear, anxiety, and lack of security that often linger long after discovery.
For husbands, it offers concrete milestones to aim for—so change isn’t vague, fragile, or dependent on willpower alone.
You’ll learn:
Why transparency (not monitoring) helps calm anxiety and rebuild trust
How remorse and emotional empathy restore connection after betrayal
The specific skills men need to resolve urges at the root, manage stress, and work through shame
Why consistent follow-through is what actually creates long-term security
This episode reframes porn addiction recovery away from promises, streaks, and fear-based vigilance—and toward root cause healing, emotional capacity, and relational safety.
If you’re navigating porn in marriage, struggling with pornography triggers, or looking for a healthier approach to relapse prevention that actually works, this episode offers clarity, direction, and hope.
