Happily Even After with Life Coach Jen

Send us a text

Have you ever found yourself grappling with the guilt and confusion that inevitably surface after an affair? You're not alone—I've been there too. I'm Life Coach Jen and in this revealing episode, I share my personal journey through the often-ignored 'bargaining stage' of healing, shedding light on the emotional turmoil both the betrayed and the unfaithful undergo. This is no time for sugarcoating; we lay bare the temptations to rationalize infidelity, self-blame, and the struggle to make sense of the reality thrust upon us. We explore why this stage is not just a pitstop but a critical phase of the grief process, which, when navigated right, can empower you to take control of your life.
In the second part of this candid conversation, we dive deeper into the treacherous waters of the bargaining stage. We address the perils of justifying poor behavior, of jeopardizing personal wellbeing in a desperate bid to mend a broken relationship—a trap many of us unknowingly fall into. We talk about setting boundaries, restoring self-esteem, and paving the way forward with confidence. This episode is much more than just a guide—it's a lifeline for those stuck in the bargaining cycle, yearning to break free and build a healthier, more stable future. It's high time we stop trying to pick up the pieces, but instead, create a beautiful mosaic from them. Let's reclaim our happiness, even amidst life's greatest tribulations.
