From Wounds to Wisdom: Healing, Forgiveness, and Healthy Boundaries with Barbie Moreno

From Wounds to Wisdom: Healing, Forgiveness, and Healthy Boundaries with Barbie Moreno

In this powerful episode of Sex Afflictions & Porn Addictions, Craig Perra sits down with Barbie Moreno, founder of From Wounds to Wisdom, to explore the deep connection between childhood trauma, unhealthy coping mechanisms, and the path to healing. This conversation isn't just for men struggling with compulsive sexual behavior but also for their betrayed spouses seeking understanding, strength, and hope.

Barbie shares her raw journey from childhood abuse and corporate success to postpartum depression and an identity crisis that shattered everything she knew. Through mindfulness, breathwork, EMDR, and self-compassion, she rebuilt her life and now helps others do the same.

For men battling addiction, this episode reveals how unresolved trauma drives destructive behaviors—and why true healing starts with facing your past and reclaiming self-worth. For partners, Barbie sheds light on why betrayal cuts so deeply and how healing your own wounds empowers you to set healthy boundaries, demand respect, and reclaim your life—whether you stay in the relationship or not.

Key takeaways include:
  • Why trauma changes the brain—and how to rewire it for resilience.
  • How shame fuels addiction and undermines intimacy for both partners.
  • Why forgiveness is a gift you give yourself, not your abuser.
  • How to build healthy boundaries without guilt or fear.
  • Practical steps for healing, growth, and reclaiming personal power.
If you're ready to break free from the cycle of pain and start living a life of authenticity and connection, tune in. Healing is possible—for both of you.

A Spoken Word Poem About Porn (by a Client)

A Spoken Word Poem About Porn (by a Client)

Many of my clients know of my love of spoken word. Every so often a client sends me a poem and I get inspired to record it. This spoken word poem about the impact of porn on someone's life comes from a wonderful man in Iraq. I've had the incredible pleasure of working with men on 6 continents in 24+ countries and I've learned that despite our external differences we all have so much more in common. We are all looking for love and connection. We all want to be proud of ourselves and live up to and to exceed our potential. I hope you enjoy the poem. I'd love your feedback so if you like it or if you've written something that you're proud of make sure to send it my way.

Porn's Golden Boy Accused of Sexual Assault - Violence in Porn

Three adult film actresses have accused porn’s golden boy – James Deen – of sexual assault and rape. This is significant because of the status Deen held in the porn industry and in mainstream media. He’s been called the “darling” of an industry that is now turning on him.Ex-Adult Actress Jessie Rogers talked about her sexual assault at the hands of a veteran male performer - He just slapped me … and I fell and my ears were ringing because he slapped me so hard. He starting banging my head on the floor, and my face started bleeding … he kept beating me basically … he choked me out twice to the point of passing out … making me look at myself with blood all over my face … he spit on his hand and put the spit all over my face … and continued to fuck me like that … he put my head inside of his toilet … every time I tried to come up for air he would not allow me to come up for air … I thought I was going to die.“
