There’s my business, your business, and God’s business. And whenever I’m not in my business, I will be miserable.
Karen Broadhead
Have you wondered how to approach the subject of pornography at the beginning of a romantic relationship? In part 2 of this conversation, Creed and Crischelle talk with Karen Broadhead about how to know when a person is ready to date when recovering from pornography, and how to relate and heal with them.
In this episode:
- Someone in recovery is able to be vulnerable in a relationship about their pornography use.
- Dating someone who is overcoming pornography requires willingness to understand and not judge.
- Focusing on things you have no control over makes happiness more difficult.
- Questions you can ask to help open up a conversation about where someone is in recovery.
