The Importance of Honesty and Transparency in Recovery - with Sathiya Sam - Episode 214

In this episode I am joined by my friend and colleague, Sathiya Sam. Sathiya shares his own journey of addiction and recovery and what he has learned through his own journey and through his time helping other men fully recover from pornography addiction. We discuss the importance of open and honest conversations to lay a foundation of trust and understanding in a relationship, and how that can help eliminate shame and increase true recovery and healing.
