Even in faithful relationships, we still betray each other day in and out, even if we don’t call it a betrayal. How is that so? Well, betrayal can come in a variety of different forms, including any breach of trust. So how do you rebuild that trust?

So your partner had an affair. What do you do now? Whether an emotional or physical betrayal, any loss of trust is a big deal, and many partners find themselves desperately monitoring their spouse’s every move and venting to their friends and family. But the question remains - if you want to make the marriage work, how are you going to rebuild that trust?
In this episode, I will explain how micromanaging your partner after they have cheated may make you feel safer but absolutely does not fix the damage done to your relationship in the long run. Even if your partner is apologizing beautifully and doing all the right things, it is hard to feel safe again after you’ve been betrayed, and you’ll have to learn how to take your power back in order to get there.

In any controlling relationship, there are two contributors, whether you realize it or not - the controller and the receiver. Most of us wouldn’t admit to being controlling, but almost everyone has controlling tendencies. Think about it - we all want to feel safe.

In this episode, I will dive into why we end up being controlling in our marriages, exploring both sides of the control experience. Understanding the emotions motivating your control or your inability to speak up will revolutionize your understanding of your relationship. I will explain how you can begin to foster trust and partnership with your spouse instead of leaning on control’s crutch.
