The Affair Recovery Room

I had a great conversation with Tim around infidelity and the role of the betrayed. We were very much in sync with our views. Tim is an engaging and informed host.

Tim Tedder has a voice that is just soothing to listen to and the material shared is invaluable. I first heard his story which he initially shared under pseudonym of Mark, and was hooked. His honesty on the other side of his own experience as the betrayer made me eager to keep listening . I found hope and invaluable tools that have allowed me to navigate through my husband’s affair. I absolutely wholeheartedly recommend this podcast to those looking for hope in the midst of an affair. My husband and I are happily married and a huge resource has been the Recovery Room podcast.

I cheated on my wife ~4 years ago. We’re still together, and MOST days are great. Yet, there are still days when everything comes back up and we are left wondering if this is the end of it all. I cannot stress this next point enough: if it wasn’t for the guidance of Tim Tedder et al. and this podcast I’m not sure I would have the framework to understand why these waves happen, and the strength to stand and do my best to provide comfort & assurance…even as she needs to unload a few feelings on me. Honestly, affair recovery is one of the craziest things that a couple can try to do, but it is so worth it…and dang near impossible to just “wing it” without quality advice, and this podcast gives it out in spades…for free. It’s my #1 recommendation to anyone going through affair recovery, or even who just wants to understand this super common, yet taboo subject. So many people are ill equipped to work through it, and some general counselors aren’t even well equipped to provide the right guidance to understand what is going on. From limerence for the affair partner, to hysterical bonding, to focusing on those two words, “comfort & assurance” as your mantra…to understanding why…there’s just so much to understand about this process. Thanks to the team behind this podcast and all previous material, you’re doing the good work. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Back in 2019, I was completely caught off guard when I discovered my wife of 20 years had been involved in an affair for the last 2 years. I found that she was involved with 5 men. I wanted to save our marriage, and so did she. We set up local counseling, but I was melting down and couldn’t wait. So I searched online and found Tim Tedder, his courses, and his podcast. We devoured the podcast and worked through his curriculum. His material and podcast complemented what we were getting from our weekly counseling sessions with someone local. It’s now 2025 and my wife and I are happily married and I am thankful that my family is still one single unit. I will forever be grateful for this podcast.
