Have you ever noticed that the addict parter feels great as soon as they get into sobriety but the betrayed partner feels horrible as they fall deeper into the trauma of betrayal? This is the dichotomy of healing and this is what Kylene and Patrick discuss in today's episode. It's a very real disconnect where one partner feels GREAT while the other partner feels sad, angry, depressed, hopeless, and overwhelmed.  There are a lot of complex emotions that come with this process....let's talk through them in today's episode...   If you are a betrayed partner and would like to connect with Kylene for 1:1 coaching support, please click this link and book a free connection call: https://p.bttr.to/3ttk0Ql   Join the free RecoverU Facebook page for betrayed partners: www.facebook.com/groups/recoverU   For addicted spouses check our puredesire.org and soulrefiner.org Follow Kylene: On TikTok: @KyleneTerhune  On IG: @KyleneTerhune

What is parts work? And how does it impact my recovery journey? Parts work (alternatively called internal family systems) is an approach that helps individuals identify parts of themselves (whether they are positive or negative) with compassion. Parts work offers a safe way to communicate on a subconscious level so that we can help our parts behave in healthy ways instead of acting our in unhealthy ways.   Kylene connects with some of her friends and colleagues to discuss how parts work has impact them or their clients in positive ways.  Follow Sophie on IG @shetalkshealth Podcast: SheTalksHealth Redeeming Roots Podcast   Follow Carly on IG @carlyinfocus         If you are a betrayed partner and would like to connect with Kylene for 1:1 coaching support, please click this link and book a free connection call: https://p.bttr.to/3ttk0Ql   Join the free RecoverU Facebook page for betrayed partners: www.facebook.com/groups/recoverU   For addicted spouses check our puredesire.org and soulrefiner.org Follow Kylene: On TikTok: @KyleneTerhune  On IG: @KyleneTerhune

Intrusive thoughts can feel isolating, but they’re common in recovery. A former school psychologist shares how to view these thoughts as transient and not indicators of moral failure. The discussion emphasizes open communication and emotional clarity in relationships. Listeners learn to harness 'quiet power' for better decision-making and boundary-setting. The episode highlights the necessity of community support for mental health journeys and the importance of recognizing the complexity of relationships while maintaining personal boundaries.

Are you feeling stuck in your healing? Or maybe you are beginning to identify unhealthy patterns in your relationship as you navigate recovery and begin to dig more deeply into through patterns and emotions.   In todays episode, Kylene and Patrick tackle 5 common lies that we are prone to believe and then share the TRUTHS that will set you free!   1. Telling the truth will hurt my spouse more than my secrets  2.Sex is a need  3. If I’ve forgiven or committed towards reconciliation it means we can’t talk about it anymore 4.Porn isn’t the same as an affair (addicted uses it as an excuse, betrayed feels stuck in pain - both feel the need to qualify)  5. Sex is how I connect with my partner    Thank you for listening to this episode!
