Hearts+Minds
The Hearts + Minds podcast covers everything from relationships and lifestyle, routines and habits, kids and colleagues to meaningful work, core values, spirituality, and God. We like to keep the tone light and conversational while dealing with topics that go well beyond the surface. Sometimes we bring up topics which overlap faith and life in a way to suit the unspiritual and devout alike. Wherever you’re at on your spiritual journey, this podcast should speak to you. Join us as we delve into life — the ordinary, relational, inner, and spiritual.
We’re delighted you’re here.

#100 | Series Theology of the Body: (Part II) How can porn affect my relationship?
Chiara Degenfeld is joining us again today for part II of the Theology of the Body series. Today's topic, we will address the difficult topic of porn and how it can affect your relationship.
Chiara discusses some disturbing statistics about porn in men and women; how porn leads to addictive behaviour and distortion of the perception of pleasure. She explores how porn addiction typically starts and how to address porn in a relationship. She shares experiences of how people can overcome porn addiction, how to establish open communication with one's partners, seeking help and the path to recovery. Finally, Chiara discusses how parents can address porn with their children and how to create a safe environment where children feel free to communicate openly with parents about porn on social networks and devices.
Listen to the first episode of the series:
