The Pure Desire programs address the evidence-based understanding that sexual bondage and the associated struggles are a family systems issue, not just an individual problem. The purpose of a Pure Desire group is to support men and women in their recovery by providing a safe, confidential place to process their life story. We believe that healing happens best when we are with a community of people who are on the journey with us. Sexual addiction isolates and separates us from one another. Pure Desire believes men and women can find hope and healing as they learn to tell their whole story and recognize the impact it has had on their behavior.

I worked with an Advisory Board to put together a viable business plan and then sought out and presented the concept to national investors and angel groups raising commitments for $500,000 in start-up capital.
