Braden Eads joins this episode of Relentlessly Resilient to discuss his “recovering” journey from pornography addiction. He highlights the role of connection, secrecy, and avoiding the “Mr. Nice Guy” syndrome of dishonestly in the continual recovery process. Along with our hosts, the conversation reframes the danger of pornography addiction into the broader implications of cultural, religious, and relationship context, as well as the power of intimate responsibility in overcoming the shame cycle. 

Even though we live in challenging times, we can become ‘Relentlessly Resilient’ as we lean on and learn from one another’s experiences. Hosts Jennie Taylor and Michelle Scharf are no strangers to overcoming adversity; Michelle lost her husband to cancer, while Jennie’s husband, Major Brent Taylor, was killed in the service of our country. Their stories bond them together, and now listeners can join them weekly as they visit with others enduring challenges and who teach us how they are exercising resiliency, finding value in their grief, and purpose in moving forward. 

Presented by Minky Couture, makers of the most luxurious and soft blankets with a mission to share comfort and love during the special moments of life.
