In this episode, I’m joined by retired marriage and family therapist Jeff Herring to explore what pornography actually does to the brain and why breaking free can be so difficult. Jeff explains the neurological cycle behind addiction, why porn use often escalates over time, and how secrecy and betrayal can deeply affect relationships and trust.
