| 0:00.0 | Well, hello, friends, and welcome to the Empowered Couples podcast. |
| 0:03.7 | This is going to be with just me. I am Jocelyn Freeman, if you haven't been listening very long. And while we love to do our episodes together, we've been having a lot of fun doing these solo episodes where we get to kind of just talk about whatever we want. And I feel like I'm having a one-on-one conversation with you. And that's how |
| 0:21.0 | I encourage you to listen, is listen as if you and I are having coffee or tea. I love a good tea |
| 0:26.5 | house. And we're having this honest conversation. And as I share this story, because the title |
| 0:32.0 | probably captured your attention, right, I'm going to talk about why being cheated on by my exes has made me a better wife today. |
| 0:40.9 | And that's a pretty bold statement and probably is counterintuitive. |
| 0:44.8 | And here's what I want to address first. |
