**This episode contains talk of addiction, pornography, and problematic sexual behavior
Today we're joined by Lauren Scharmer, a licensed clinical social worker who has a specialty in treating sexual addiction. We dive into not only sexual addiction, but other forms of addiction and how any form can hinder our relationships with not only others, but ourselves and God as well. Lauren offers helpful stats, history, and advice as well as reflection on these topics.
