Thanksgiving. A time when everyone around you seems to be posting about gratitude, family, and full hearts. But if you've been cheated on, betrayed, or blindsided by the person you trusted most, all this talk about thankfulness can feel like a cruel joke. In this special holiday episode, we speak directly to the man who’s sitting with heartbreak instead of celebration.
We unpack why gratitude can feel forced or even enraging after betrayal, and why you’re not broken if you don’t feel thankful this year. This episode is a raw and grounded reflection on how to hold space for grief, anger, confusion and yes, still carve out room for something true. Gratitude doesn’t have to be performative. And it doesn’t mean denying the pain. It can be as simple as: I’m still here.
This conversation is for the man who’s quietly carrying more than most people know. You deserve a place where your truth is honored, even on a day like Thanksgiving.
