Show Notes
Porn: educational tool or relationship wrecker? This week, I’m breaking down the truth behind adult content—how it impacts solo and partnered intimacy, when it becomes problematic, and how it can actually support a healthier relationship and better sex. We will also explore the world of ethical porn, real-life arousal, and how fantasy on-screen isn't always what it seems in real life.
If you’ve ever wondered whether porn is hurting or helping your connection, this episode is a must-listen.
