Today we discuss the essential process of self-repair after experiencing betrayal with an emphasis on the importance of focusing on your relationship with yourself rather than solely on repairing the relationship with your partner. We explore how infidelity can shatter self-trust, the urgency of self-repair, and practical steps to rebuild self-trust, set boundaries, and engage from a place of choice. Ultimately, the episode highlights that true healing begins with you and that nurturing a strong relationship with yourself leads to healthier external relationships.
Key Takeaways:
- Self-repair is often neglected after infidelity.
