Welcome to the Affair Podcast. I'm Anna Williamson. Now, if you don't know me, I'm a relationship

therapist, coach and TV personality.

Now, this podcast will unveil the secrets behind modern day affairs as we explore everything from emotional affairs to rebuilding trust after betrayal.

One in five people have admitted to having an affair.

But it's a topic that is rarely explored and remains taboo because it sparks such powerful emotions

and judgments. Each episode features a different real-life affair story told by the people involved

and offers insights into the emotions, causes and consequences of infidelity in today's world.

From the motivations behind affairs to the impact on relationships,

we'll uncover the raw truth behind one of the most painful aspects of human relationships.

So without further ado, let's meet today's guest.

Join me on the affair this week. I have Jade. Welcome to the podcast, Jade. How are you feeling?

Hello. Thank you for having me me I'm feeling a bit nervous um but yeah I feel like we're at a time now where I feel as part of my

healing and journey I'm at a point where I feel like it'd be really good to share the story

from start to finish. I haven't

done that outside of my friend and family network before. So this is sort of new territory for me.

But I feel like, yeah, as part of ending of that chapter in my life, I feel like it's a good point

now to kind of share that. I guess to be aware as well that these things happen to anyone.
