Description

In this episode, we delve into the psychology of infidelity to uncover the underlying reasons for cheating, which often aren't what you might expect. Cheating is frequently an escape, a way to feel alive and break free from feeling stuck or unseen.


We explore emotional and psychological triggers, such as the 80/20 rule, and discuss differing motivations for men and women, the role of self-sabotage, and the impact of emotional affairs.


I share personal experiences of betrayal and the journey of healing, emphasizing that your self-worth isn't defined by others' actions.


This episode aids anyone affected by infidelity in processing, healing, and regaining their power.
