Can You Ever Truly Rebuild Trust After Infidelity?

How do you move forward when trust shatters in an instant? When the person who vowed to stand by you crosses a line that feels impossible to uncross?


Here we are with another Language of Love session as I connect with Chelsea, a listener navigating the aftermath of her husband's infidelity.


Chelsea's husband confessed to drunkenly making out with another woman at a bachelor party a year ago. Since then, he's been attending therapy, practicing radical transparency, and working to rebuild trust. Yet Chelsea still struggles with obsessive thoughts: Will I ever truly move past this?


In this session, we deep dive into:

  • Why betrayal cuts so deep and how a single act of infidelity can trigger old wounds from past relationships or childhood
  • How to create a level of  transparency that is crucial in rebuilding trust
  • The "continuum of cheating" and its implications
  • How our bodies can tell us the truth before our minds catch up


If Chelsea's story resonates with you - if you're navigating the painful aftermath of betrayal or struggling to rebuild trust - we want to hear from you. Your experience could help others feel less alone.
