Austin Hamilton discovered porn as a child and was secretly addicted until he was faced with a painful truth later in life: porn was a way for him to fill the hole in his heart from his mom dying in a plane crash when he was just five years old. He saw how much his behavior negatively impacted his marriage and decided to tell his wife. From there, his healing journey began. Through the love and support of his family, Austin has experienced freedom from porn addiction and today he helps other men to get rid of this unwanted pattern.
