Our goal here at Overcome Pornography for Good is to provide a safe space for people struggling with unwanted porn use and to offer support to spouses who are also struggling with their partner’s porn use.

My guest this week is an expert at holding space for both sides, and she’s here to discuss the nuances and complexities involved in porn use because it’s never quite as black-and-white as we think. Andrea Giles is an infidelity coach who primarily works with women trying to heal after infidelity, and she’s here to explore the question, “Is porn use infidelity?”

Join us on this episode to hear Andrea’s definition of infidelity and whether she believes unwanted porn use constitutes cheating in a relationship. We’re exploring how to gain an objective view of your situation, why independent healing matters, and her top tips for rebuilding a loving relationship with a shared vision moving forward.
