In this episode of the Porn to Purpose podcast, I sit down with Coach Yeadon to have one of the most uncomfortable—but critical—conversations every man trapped in porn eventually faces: how to talk to your wife about porn.
Let’s be real—confessing this kind of struggle feels terrifying. You’re afraid she’ll be crushed. That you’ll lose her trust—or worse, her love. But staying silent? That’s already killing your marriage. Today, Coach Yeadon and I break down what that conversation actually looks like, why timing and honesty matter, and how to lead with truth rather than shame.
If you're serious about healing and rebuilding intimacy, this episode will show you how to stop hiding and start communicating with the woman who deserves your full heart.
