E50 - Pope Leo XIV on Addiction

Send us a text In this episode, we reflect on Pope Leo XIV’s comments on addiction. The Holy Father urges a commitment to prevention, addressing not only drugs and alcohol but modern addictions like pornography, gambling, and excessive screen use. We explore how addiction often grows from inner distress, isolation, and a loss of purpose. Addiction isn’t just about behavior — it’s about a deeper hunger. LINK TO ARTICLE here. This conversation invites men in recovery to move from withdrawal to connection, from secrecy to truth, and from relapse avoidance to building a life rooted in faith, community, and responsibility.

E48- Slow Down!

Send us a text Hey, ever just act on impulse and instantly regret it? Ugh, we know that feeling! This week, we're diving into the absolute best tool for getting emotionally sober: Slowing Down! Dr. Eddie Capparucci calls it his number one rule: “Slow Everything Down.” This episode shows you how to interrupt that destructive speed and actually make a conscious choice. We’re blending modern recovery tools with the faith. You’ll see how moments of distress—when your Inner Child is throwing a fit—can make you shoot right out of your Window of Tolerance and straight into destructive hyper-arousal. Not good! Get ready to learn the awesome spiritual and practical disciplines of Slowing Down and implementing a Sacred Pause. We’re talking 12-Step wisdom, the virtue of Prudence, how to heal from betrayal trauma, and how to finally show up as the safe, solid partner you want to be!

E47- Dan Drake on Full Disclosure: He Wrote the Book on It

Send us a text In this episode, I sit down with Dan Drake—literally the man who wrote the book on Full Therapeutic Disclosure—to talk about one of the most important (and misunderstood) parts of the recovery journey. What happens when the truth finally comes into the light? We unpack: What Full Therapeutic Disclosure is (and what it isn’t)Why honesty is the foundation of rebuilding trustHow empathy and truth-telling go hand in handThe role of polygraphs in the processWhether or not disclosure lines up with Biblical teachingThis conversation is raw, practical, and filled with hope. If you’re a man battling secret struggles—or a spouse who has been betrayed—you’ll walk away with clarity on why disclosure matters, how it brings healing, and why God always calls us into the light. Ultimately, disclosure isn’t just about naming failures—it’s about creating a pathway toward healing, safety, and deeper intimacy. When couples have the courage to face the truth together, they discover that God’s grace is bigger than any secret, and that honesty really can set them free.

E46 w/Tom Weaver - From the Paper Shack to the Table: Finding Hope After Addiction and Betrayal

Send us a text In this episode, I sit down with Tom Weaver from Come to the Table Ministry to talk about the real struggles of sex addiction, betrayal trauma, and the hope of lasting transformation. Tom shares his powerful story of being exposed to pornography as a young boy at the “Paper Shack” in his church, how that struggle carried into marriage, and how God brought him and his wife through deep betrayal to healing and restoration. We also talk about the ministry’s Men’s and Women’s retreats and their Couples Conference, where hurting hearts find community, truth, and tools for recovery. Check out the 'Men Make Men' retreat and the 'Princess Warrior' retreat as well as the 'Maintaining the Bridge: Hope and Healing After Betrayal' Couples Conference! Whether you’re battling addiction, walking through betrayal, or longing for deeper intimacy in your marriage, Tom offers encouragement that freedom is possible and healing is real. To close, Tom takes on some rapid-fire questions about recovery and relationships—practical insights you won’t want to miss. If you’ve ever wondered if there’s hope after betrayal, or if freedom is possible after years of struggle, this episode will speak directly to you.

E45- Getting Sick...and the Risk of Relapse

Send us a text When you’re sick with a cold, flu, or illness, recovery can feel extra vulnerable. Weakness, isolation, and self-pity can open the door to relapse. In this episode, I share why being under the weather is spiritually dangerous for a Catholic man in recovery—and what practical steps help guard against acting out. I also reflect on the Feast of the Passion of St. John the Baptist, who stood firm against disordered desire, and I open up about my own struggles with relapse while sick.
