How do we reach a point of acceptance for where we are now, and an appreciation of what we have, and the feelings we hold?

In this episode we discuss:

  • Then vs. Now: Life changes since Season 1
  • What is the "New Normal"?

Episode 11 | Infidelity
Hosted by Meredith Shirey & Isaiah Vallejo-Juste
Produced by The Bored Brand

While it may seem like the definition of infidelity is clear-cut and unwavering, the concept of infidelity has significantly shifted over the decades and centuries. Where proof of sexual impropriety once served as the sole and clear intent of unfaithfulness in conventional marriages, the onset of love matching in modern day marital relations has blurred the lines for what constitutes indiscretion. We unpack why that is, and what to do about it.

In this episode we cover:

  • What is Infidelity?
  • Emotional Affairs
  • Myths about Cheaters
  • Repairing a relationship after an affair
  • Should I Stay Or Should I Go After An Affair?
