Author (and wife of a now-sober porn addict) Rosie Makinney is passionate about equipping wives with the appropriate steps to fight for their marriages, help their husbands, and find support for their own healing as well. Where do you draw boundaries? How do you know if he’s in a healthy support group? Is it okay to take time off from sex? We address all of those questions and more in this episode of Java with Juli.
