Summary
How does it work? How can it be a thing to feel pain when the partner is also in pain from a life event, even outside of betrayal and addiction? Is a partner warranted in suffering when they have hurt their partner? What does this delicate situation look like when approached the right way? Listen as Coby and Brannon break this down.
We are glad you found our season 3 episodes where we share some of our most advanced learnings when it comes to relationships, and the challenges of healing both sides of the relationship after sex addiction and infidelity.
Our journey has taken us a long ways from the time we recorded these episodes, but many have still found help and hope for healing in the information.
We hope you always seek healing first for yourself, and where possible for the relationship, though staying together or choosing divorce or separation can occur at the point of betrayal and at times even after healing from betrayal and addictions.
If you would like support in healing from betrayal we’d invite you to look at our program https://www.beyond-enough.com/beyondbetrayal
It is not a program about staying together or leaving your partner, but rather finding the healing we need as an individual who has been made aware of our partner cheating.
If you would like support from a licensed therapist contact Brannon’s office at www.utahtherapy.org
