Living Through is a podcast for partners who have been betrayed who are living through as they recover and heal and reconnect.
If you're in recovery and healing you've probably heard about the importance of reaching out. In this episode we unpack the crucial nature of connection to another or others in your recovery and healing and I give some ideas on what to consider if you're on the fence about it.
