I was so shocked and sad to hear the sudden passing of @collinkartchner today.

He has made a huge impact for good to so many in such a short time. I often refer him as a great resource when people reach out to me for help specifically with their kids.

I heard him speak for the first time and was overwhelmed at the meaningful information he shared. I couldn’t take notes fast enough as he described how and why porn is so addictive. I didn’t realize how crucial this knowledge I was gathering to share with my husband and children would really play out.

Nine months later I found out I was married to an addict and I was able to somewhat try and understand how someone was capable of doing what he did because I knew had been introduced to aspects of how the addiction worked. I knew this effected the brain and the inability to feel. Also, how the powerful burst of dopamine of porn effects the part of the brain that controls pleasure and motivation.

I love that the last time I heard him speak was recently at the UCAP conference in St.George with my children.

Thank you Collin for all your hard work to #savethekids. May we all continue your work forward. Sending loads of prayers and love to you and your young family DearLizzy!!!

Give someone an 8 second hug today!!!
