Trigger warning: sexual addiction
In this powerful and vulnerable episode of The F.E.E.L Podcast, Melissa Crook welcomes Logan Hufford, who opens up about his journey through sexual addiction recovery and the life-changing impact of setting healthy personal boundaries. Logan shares how he once lived fragmented—presenting different versions of himself to the world—but is now discovering the freedom of authenticity and emotional wholeness.
Together, Melissa and Logan explore the critical role of boundaries in mental health, recovery, and healing. Logan redefines boundaries as internal guardrails that protect you, rather than rules to control others. He explains why lasting recovery starts with self-awareness and why true empowerment comes from owning your choices.
Whether you're facing emotional burnout, addiction recovery, or struggling to live as your true self, Logan’s story reminds us that healing is possible—and authenticity is worth the journey.

Blog Excerpt: Our boundaries should be like guardrails to protect us, but they should be far enough back that there’s safety before going completely over the edge.
Ways to Engage: When setting your boundaries, think about the way you’re wording your expectations. Instead of making it about the other person’s behavior, make it about what your behavior will be if theirs doesn’t change. You can’t be responsible for someone else’s decisions, but you can be responsible for your own.
