Episode Description from the Publisher

In today's episode, you'll discover: For the betrayed partner, discovering an affair can feel devastating. What actually happens in the brain and nervous system when someone learns they've been betrayed? Why does betrayal often create symptoms that resemble trauma, such as hypervigilance, anxiety, obsessive thoughts, or difficulty trusting their own reality? 3.     After an affair is discovered, what are some of the biggest mistakes couples make when trying to repair the relationship? To support these three takeaways, I chose a quote from Jonathan Lockwood: "Forgive others, not because they deserve it, but because you deserve peace."  About Lora Cheadle: LORA CHEADLE, JD CHt is an author, TEDx speaker, and leadership wellness coach who specializes in burnout and betrayal recovery.
