    This podcast is helpful and explores topics I haven’t heard on other betrayal podcasts. The hosts share some great insights and I appreciate their wisdom and experience. My only suggestion (sorry!) is that Stephanie stop saying “I was thinking…” or “it made me think…” several times per episode.

  • Such a comfort during this journey

    I’m so grateful to you both for this work you are doing. During a time where I feel 10,000 emotions all at once, this podcast is so grounding for me. I’d love to see some Q&A sessions where we can ask some specific questions about our experiences!

    Thank you for validating the minimization of the betrayed partners pain when the betrayer is “checking the boxes” on their recovery. Relational change can’t happen without curiosity, empathy, and honesty on both sides.

  • Great conversations

    These women offer relatable insight and credible, useful guidance for those navigating the betrayal trauma recovery process. I just wish, in a podcasts all about HEALING, that it didn’t sound like “hilling” every time Stephanie says it. Oy.
