EP73: Do It For Her with Kim Litton, LCSW
Sunday, 30 August, 2026

Why is love addiction still so misunderstood? In this episode of the podcast, Jodi and her guest Kim Litton—a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Sex Addiction Therapist, and author of I Do It For Her—discuss this question and much more. Kim shares how she first learned about love addiction after unknowingly living with it for years, even after completing treatment for substance addiction and becoming a therapist. They get into Kim's early recovery, including an "embarrassing" story about a fling. They also discuss the New York Times article on love addiction and why some "experts" refuse to believe love addiction is a real thing.
