We’re taught to see cheating as a simple equation: one person betrays, the other is betrayed. End of story. But the truth is never that clean.
In this episode, I share why an affair is never just about the moment it happened or the person it happened with. It’s about everything that came before - the silences, the unspoken needs, the glass walls that build up between two people - long before a boundary is crossed.
You’ll hear:
Why loneliness inside a relationship is one of the deepest fractures of all
How silence and swallowed needs slowly erode connection
Why cheating is never about “suddenly making a bad choice”
And how understanding this bigger picture can loosen the grip of shame
If you’ve ever felt like you were screaming silently inside your relationship - or carrying the unbearable weight of guilt after betraying someone you loved - this conversation will help you see what was really happening underneath.
This isn’t about excusing or blaming. It’s about understanding.Because when you can finally see the truth of what was there, you can stop carrying it alone.
