Castimonia Purity Podcast Episode 134: Interview with Dana Hargus

https://castimonia.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Episode-134-Interview-with-Dana-Hargus.mp3

Today on the Purity Podcast, Chris interviews Dana Hargus, licensed professional counselor and founder of Restore of Ada, about the deep connection between trauma, nervous-system dysregulation, sexual addiction, and betrayal trauma.

This episode explores:

  • Why insight, willpower, and accountability alone often fail in sexual addiction recovery
  • How porn and compulsive sexual behaviors function as nervous-system regulation tools
  • The role of trauma and attachment wounds in relapse cycles
  • What betrayed partners experience in their bodies—not just their emotions
  • Why safety must be restored before intimacy or reconciliation is possible
  • How biofeedback and whole-person healing can create lasting transformation

This conversation is essential listening for addicts, spouses, and leaders who want recovery that goes deeper than behavior modification.
