When She’s Triggered, Don’t Make It Worse: 12 Ways Men Accidentally Re‑Trigger Their Wives and How to Respond 29.06.2026 38min📻 𝙀𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮 𝙈𝙖𝙣’𝙨 𝘽𝙖𝙩𝙩𝙡𝙚 𝙋𝙤𝙙𝙘𝙖𝙨𝙩 – 𝐄𝐩𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐝𝐞 𝟐𝟔 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐍𝐨𝐓𝐄𝐒In Episode 26, JJ West and Doug Barnes welcome betrayal‑trauma specialist Laura Mangin‑MacDonald to continue unpacking what to do—and what not to do—when your wife is triggered by past sexual betrayal. Laura shares 12 things men commonly do that accidentally re‑trigger their wives, including explaining too fast, logic‑fixing, harsh tone, defensive posture, and standing over her, and offers clear alternatives anchored in attunement, softness, and presence.You’ll learn:Why rushing to explain, argue details, or correct her memory backfires when her nervous system is flooded—and how simply meeting her in her pain becomes a building block of trust.How tone, facial expressions, body language, and even pacing can feel physically intimidating or dismissive after betrayal, even if you’ve never been violent.How to show up as a man who listens, slows down, and stays emotionally present, so your responses help soothe rather than re‑injure your wife’s traumatised heart.🎟 Use code 𝐄𝐌𝐁𝐏𝐎𝐃 to save $100 when you register for the Every Man’s Battle Intensive, and ask about Restore for wives and New Life recovery groups so both of you have support as you heal.📧 𝐁𝐎𝐍𝐔𝐒 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐑 𝐐𝐔𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒Want extra content to encourage your integrity, delivered via email each month? 👉 Email EMBpodcast@newlife.com with “Bonus Content” in the subject line.To send questions or topic requests for next season:👉 Email EMBpodcast@newlife.com with “Podcast Question” in the subject line.☎️ Need help learning these skills in your own marriage?👉 Call 800‑NEW‑LIFE or visit NewLife.com for:Sexual integrity counseling for men.Every Man’s Battle intensives.Restore workshops for wives experiencing betrayal trauma.Ongoing couples and recovery groups.🎟 𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐏𝐒 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐂𝐀𝐍 𝐓𝐀𝐊𝐄 𝐀𝐅𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐄𝐏𝐈𝐒𝐎𝐃𝐄If this episode exposed how often you accidentally re‑trigger your wife:Attend the Every Man’s Battle Intensive3‑day, counselor‑led workshop for men seeking freedom from porn, affairs, and sexual addiction.Helps you understand betrayal, your wife’s trauma, and how to rebuild trust through concrete actions, not just words.Invite your wife to RestoreA 3‑day intensive for women affected by betrayal, offering trauma‑informed tools, community, and a safe setting to process pain.Join an ongoing groupNew Life’s men’s recovery and Life Recovery groups give you weekly practice in awareness, attunement, and integrity so you can keep growing between episodes and workshops.Scholarships and payment assistance are often available; ask when you call 800‑NEW‑LIFE.Use code 𝐄𝐌𝐁𝐏𝐎𝐃 to save $100 when you register for Every Man’s Battle.🎧 Listen subscribe:👉 Every Man’s Battle Podcast hub: https://newlife.com/podcasts/every-mans-battle/👉 New Life LIVE other New Life podcasts: https://newlife.com/podcasts/

Can Porn Cause Erectile Dysfunction? Neuroscience, Neuroplasticity, and a 90‑Day Reset for Recovery 15.06.2026 34min📻 𝙀𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮 𝙈𝙖𝙣’𝙨 𝘽𝙖𝙩𝙩𝙡𝙚 𝙋𝙤𝙙𝙘𝙖𝙨𝙩 – 𝐄𝐩𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐝𝐞 𝟐𝟒 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐍𝐨𝐓𝐄𝐒In this QA episode, JJ West and Doug Barnes tackle two big recovery questions: Can years of porn and voyeurism cause erectile dysfunction, and can your brain really be rewired? And is there any evidence that a 90‑day abstention from sex with your wife actually helps recovery?You’ll learn:How porn and compulsive sexual behavior train your brain to crave novelty and intensity instead of real‑life intimacy—and why that often leads to ED with your spouse.Why the brain’s neuroplasticity offers real hope for change, and how awareness, heart work, and healthier habits help rewire pleasure pathways over time.What a 90‑day reset is (and isn’t), why many recovery experts recommend 30–90 days of sexual abstinence in early recovery, and how to use that time to build connection, not just compliance, in partnership with your wife and a wise counselor.🎟 Use code 𝐄𝐌𝐁𝐏𝐎𝐃 to save $100 when you register for the Every Man’s Battle Intensive, and ask about Restore for wives and New Life recovery groups so you’re not fighting this battle alone.📧 𝐁𝐎𝐍𝐔𝐒 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐑 𝐐𝐔𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒Want extra content to encourage your integrity, delivered via email each month? 👉 Email EMBpodcast@newlife.com with “Bonus Content” in the subject line to get exclusive Every Man’s Battle Podcast materials.To submit your own questions for future episodes:👉 Email EMBpodcast@newlife.com with “Podcast Question” in the subject line.☎️ Need personalized help for ED, porn use, or marriage healing?👉 Call 800‑NEW‑LIFE or visit NewLife.com to connect with sexual integrity counselors, Every Man’s Battle workshops, Restore intensives for wives, and ongoing recovery groups.🎟 𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐏𝐒 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐂𝐀𝐍 𝐓𝐀𝐊𝐄 𝐀𝐅𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐄𝐏𝐈𝐒𝐎𝐃𝐄If today’s questions hit close to home:Consider the Every Man’s Battle IntensiveA 3‑day, in‑person workshop for men seeking freedom from porn, affairs, and sexual addiction, led by licensed Christian counselors.Helps you understand how your brain and heart got here and how to start real change.Invite your wife to consider RestoreA 3‑day intensive specifically for women healing from betrayal trauma, led by experienced counselors.Offers tools, support, and a safe space to process the impact of your choices.Join an ongoing recovery groupNew Life offers men’s addiction recovery groups, sexual integrity groups, and Life Recovery groups to provide long‑term support as you rewire your brain and rebuild relationships.Scholarships are often available; when you call 800‑NEW‑LIFE, ask about financial help for workshops.Use code 𝐄𝐌𝐁𝐏𝐎𝐃 when you register for Every Man’s Battle to save $100 on registration.🎧 Listen subscribe:👉 Every Man’s Battle Podcast hub: https://newlife.com/podcasts/every-mans-battle/👉 New Life LIVE other New Life podcasts: https://newlife.com/podcasts/#EveryMansBattle #PornAndED #Neuroplasticity #90DayReset #SexualIntegrity #NewLifeMinistries

Another listener shares that after an affair and a recent “almost slip,” his partner is done, and he’s promised to change but doesn’t know where to start.You’ll learn:Why emotional shutdown is often a survival strategy rooted in trauma and loss, not proof that you’re inhuman or beyond hope—and how trauma‑informed counseling and simple emotional awareness practices can help thaw the numbness.Why “almost affairs” are still heart‑level betrayals, why big promises aren’t enough, and how real change begins with awareness, ownership, and examining what made you open to temptation in the first place.How New Life’s workshops, counseling, and groups can support men and their wives as they move from mere sobriety into deeper healing, empathy, and relational repair.🎟 Use code 𝐄𝐌𝐁𝐏𝐎𝐃 to save $100 when you register for the Every Man’s Battle Intensive, and ask about Restore for wives and ongoing recovery groups so you’re not walking this road alone.📧 𝐁𝐎𝐍𝐔𝐒 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐑 𝐐𝐔𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒Want extra content to encourage your integrity, delivered via email each month? 👉 Email EMBpodcast@newlife.com with “Bonus Content” in the subject line.To send your own questions for future QA shows:👉 Email EMBpodcast@newlife.com with “Podcast Question” in the subject line.☎️ Need more than a podcast—counseling, workshops, or groups?👉 Call 800‑NEW‑LIFE or visit NewLife.com to connect with:Sexual integrity counseling for men.Every Man’s Battle intensives.Restore workshops for wives.Ongoing recovery and Life Recovery groups.🎟 𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐏𝐒 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐂𝐀𝐍 𝐓𝐀𝐊𝐄 𝐀𝐅𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐄𝐏𝐈𝐒𝐎𝐃𝐄If you resonate with Terry’s numbness or the anonymous oil‑field worker’s fear of losing his relationship, consider:Every Man’s Battle IntensiveA 3‑day workshop for men seeking freedom from porn, affairs, and sexual addiction, led by licensed Christian counselors.Helps you understand not only your behavior but also the deeper story and emotions behind it.Restore Intensive (for wives)A 3‑day workshop for women affected by betrayal, affairs, and pornography, offering tools and community for betrayal trauma recovery.Join a recovery groupNew Life offers online and in‑person groups for sexual integrity, addiction recovery, and Life Recovery to provide long‑term support as you work through numbness, triggers, and relational repair.Scholarships are often available; ask about them when you call 800‑NEW‑LIFE.Use code 𝐄𝐌𝐁𝐏𝐎𝐃 when you register for Every Man’s Battle to save $100 on your registration.🎧 Listen subscribe:👉 Every Man’s Battle Podcast hub: https://newlife.com/podcasts/every-mans-battle/👉 New Life LIVE other New Life podcasts: https://newlife.com/podcasts/#EveryMansBattle #EmotionalNumbness #AffairsAndRecovery #SexualIntegrity #BetrayalTrauma #NewLifeMinistries

They describe how weekly, counselor‑led groups become a laboratory for connection, where men learn real accountability, practice “into‑me‑see,” and respond to triggers by reaching out to brothers instead of running back to porn.You’ll learn:How to treat temptations and emotional “storms” as dashboard warning lights, not signals to numb out, and why healing must happen in community with safe men, not in isolation.What separates good accountability (rigorous honesty, story‑based challenge, truth in love) from shallow “How you doing?” check‑ins that let you hide and blame your spouse.Why sobriety alone isn’t enough—and how groups like Sustained Victory help you become a safe, present husband and father, not just a man who stopped viewing porn.🎟 Use code 𝐄𝐌𝐁𝐏𝐎𝐃 to save $100 when you register for the Every Man’s Battle Intensive, and ask about Sustained Victory and other New Life recovery groups so you’re not fighting this battle alone.📧 𝐁𝐎𝐍𝐔𝐒 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐑 𝐐𝐔𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒Want extra content to encourage your integrity, delivered via email each month? 👉 Email EMBpodcast@newlife.com with “Bonus Content” in the subject line.To share comments, questions, or topic ideas for upcoming episodes:👉 Email EMBpodcast@newlife.com with “Podcast Question” in the subject line.☎️ Need help deciding your next step—workshop, Sustained Victory group, or counseling?👉 Call 800‑NEW‑LIFE or visit NewLife.com for faith‑based sexual integrity counseling, workshops, and recovery groups.🎟 𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐘 𝐌𝐀𝐍’𝐒 𝐁𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐋𝐄 𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐒𝐈𝐕𝐄 𝐒𝐔𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐈𝐍𝐄𝐃 𝐕𝐈𝐂𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐘 – 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐇 𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐖𝐀𝐑𝐃If this episode has exposed how much you need ongoing brotherhood and structured accountability, consider these steps:Attend the Every Man’s Battle IntensiveA 3‑day, in‑person workshop led by licensed Christian counselors.Teaching, story work, and practical tools for sexual integrity and heart‑level change.A brotherhood of men who understand your struggle and want the same freedom.Join a Sustained Victory group after EMBWeekly, counselor‑led groups (online) that help you live out what you learned at the intensive.Guided discussions, real accountability, and support for deeper healing and resilience.New Life also offers additional recovery groups (Men’s Life Recovery, Men’s Accountability, Life Recovery Support) for broader issues like substance abuse, codependency, and emotional strongholds.

Bob shares a 36‑year recovery journey that includes childhood sexual abuse, early pornography exposure, a porn‑shaped view of sex, coming to Christ at 18, harmful church advice, multiple relapses, and finally discovering the missing piece: connection with God, self, and others through Every Man’s Battle and Sustained Victory.You’ll hear:How abuse, secrecy, and moving every three years formed emotional “templates” of not belonging, driving Bob to porn to “thermostat” his feelings and escape reality.Why negotiating with addiction (“I’ll just look once…”) is like bargaining with a terrorist, and how poor disclosure and “work your own side of the street” thinking delayed his wife’s healing.How EMB and deep friendships with other facilitators taught him rigorous honesty, emotional language, and authentic connection, leading him to say, “I didn’t just get sobriety; I got a life.”🎟 Use code 𝐄𝐌𝐁𝐏𝐎𝐃 to save $100 when you register for the Every Man’s Battle Intensive, and ask about Sustained Victory and online recovery groups so you’re not fighting this battle alone.📧 𝐁𝐎𝐍𝐔𝐒 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐑 𝐐𝐔𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒Want extra content to encourage your integrity, delivered via email each month? 👉 Email EMBpodcast@newlife.com with “Bonus Content” in the subject line to receive exclusive Every Man’s Battle Podcast resources.To send your questions, feedback, or topic ideas for upcoming QA episodes:👉 Email EMBpodcast@newlife.com with “Podcast Question” in the subject line.☎️ Need more help—counseling, groups, or a structured plan after this episode stirred things up?👉 Call 800‑NEW‑LIFE or visit NewLife.com to connect with Christian sexual integrity counseling, workshops, and recovery groups.🎟 𝐒𝐏𝐄𝐂𝐈𝐀𝐋 𝐎𝐅𝐅𝐄𝐑 – 𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐘 𝐌𝐀𝐍’𝐒 𝐁𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐋𝐄 𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐒𝐈𝐕𝐄 𝐒𝐔𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐈𝐍𝐄𝐃 𝐕𝐈𝐂𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐘If Bob’s story feels uncomfortably familiar—decades of white‑knuckling, partial disclosure, relapse, and secret negotiation with your addiction—it may be time to stop managing and start truly recovering.

Jim shares his journey from early masturbation and pornography in Peoria, to a dramatic Good Friday conversion, to years of pastoral ministry shadowed by secret acting out, and finally to a life of freedom, transparency, and group leadership through New Life.You’ll hear:How a blunt question from a Campus Life leader and the prayers of his now‑wife Susan led Jim to recognize his addictions as crutches and surrender to Christ.Why a terrifying confession to a prayer partner at a pastors’ conference (“I’m struggling with porn and masturbation”) became the doorway to real accountability and change.What Jim wishes he’d done differently—addressing acting in behaviors and hiding from his wife sooner—and why transparency and ongoing groups like Sustained Victory are now central to his own recovery and ministry to other men.🎟 Use code 𝐄𝐌𝐁𝐏𝐎𝐃 to save $100 when you register for the Every Man’s Battle Intensive, and ask about Sustained Victory and other groups so you don’t try to do this alone.📧 𝐁𝐎𝐍𝐔𝐒 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐎R EMAIL 𝐒𝐔𝐁𝐒𝐂𝐑𝐈𝐁𝐄𝐑𝐒Want extra content to encourage your integrity, delivered via email each month? 👉 Email EMBpodcast@newlife.com with “Bonus Content” in the subject line to receive exclusive Every Man’s Battle Podcast resources.Have a question about recovery, Sustained Victory, or future topics?👉 Email EMBpodcast@newlife.com with “Podcast Question” in the subject line.☎️ Need a counselor, coach, or group?👉 Call 800‑NEW‑LIFE or visit NewLife.com to connect with Christian counseling, life coaching, and recovery groups.🎟 𝐒𝐏𝐄𝐂𝐈𝐀𝐋 𝐎𝐅𝐅𝐄𝐑 – 𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐘 𝐌𝐀𝐍’𝐒 𝐁𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐋𝐄 𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐒𝐈𝐕𝐄 𝐒𝐔𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐈𝐍𝐄𝐃 𝐕𝐈𝐂𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐘If Jim’s story resonates—secret porn use, ministry pressure, fear of being found out, and decades of partial measures—it may be time to step into the same path God used to set him free.
