According to the Institute of Family Studies, 20% of married men and 13% of married women have admitted to cheating on their spouse. For many couples, infidelity destroys their marriage—40% of adults who have committed adultery are now divorced compared to 17% of spouses who have never cheated.
But affairs don’t always end marriages and in today’s episode, Jill and Mark Savage share how they navigated the valley of infidelity and emerged with a deeper intimacy and connection. As Mark puts it, “We now have the marriage we’d always dreamed of.”
Jill and Mark speak specifically to these themes and questions:
- How we often misuse our strengths in marriage.
- The trap of “parenting” your spouse.
- The delicate balance of control—when one spouse dominates and the other allows it.
- Can strong, independent women enjoy traditional marriage roles?
- Owning our part in marital dysfunction.
- How those with Avoidant Attachment and Anxious Attachment can forge strong relationships.
- How to “recover” from your attachment style.
- How we often unwittingly behave in ways that cause our worst relationship fears to come true!
Jill and Mark share their story hoping to encourage and inspire other couples. Healing from infidelity IS possible!
