101: Sexual Desire Isn’t Sin | The Conversation Christian Men Are Afraid to Have

A raw, redemptive conversation with Tina Huggins about healing
religious sexual shame, restoring trust in marriage, and breaking
the real roots of porn addiction. 


What if your deepest struggle with porn addiction isn’t about
lust—but about unhealed shame?

In this episode of the No More Desire podcast, host Jake
Kastleman sits down with Tina Huggins, a restorative
family mediator and certified divorce coach who shares insights
for porn addiction recovery, religious trauma, and high-conflict
relationships. Tina has spent years guiding men and
couples—including those from Christian backgrounds—through the
real roots of addiction, helping them overcome shame, rebuild
intimacy, and heal their marriages from the inside out.

Let’s be clear—Tina’s not here to tell anyone to walk away from
their marriage. Her focus is on restoration, not separation. She
brings an emotionally intelligent, trauma-informed approach to
healing that blends psychology, physiology, and spiritual
wisdom.

shame—and fuel pornography addiction
