If you're reading this, either you or someone you care about has had their life turned upside down due to an affair.
I have a few things to tell you.
Although infidelity is remarkably commonplace, no one ever believes it could happen to them. The truth is, no one's marriage is immune to betrayal.
This doesn't make it any easier when it happens in your life. In fact, finding out that your spouse has been unfaithful has to be one of life's most devastating moments.
Even waking up in the morning takes courage.
And the pain doesn't seem to go away, even after days, weeks and months. There are reminders and triggers everywhere you look.
That's when you say to yourself, "I'm a fool for putting up with this. I must be a weak person to stay in this marriage. I need to draw a line in the sand and stop being a wimp." Others around you will encourage you to kick your marriage to the curb.
You start to judge yourself harshly. You feel shame for staying.
But believe me, there is no shame in working through this crisis to get to the other side. Besides, leaving doesn't solve anything; you still have to deal with the pain. Plus, you'll be ending a marriage and, if you have kids, your family will never be the same.
Know that you can work through this dark period and make your marriage stronger and more loving than before. It's said that the scar tissue of a broken bone is stronger in constitution than the bone itself!
Healing our broken places makes us stronger!
The key is, you have to know how.
I know how.
For three decades, I've been passionate about helping 911 couples create loving, long-lasting marriages. In the process, I've learned all about infidelity- how it hurts relationships and more importantly, how to mend broken hearts, put the past in the past, rebuild trust, and help couples find forgiveness.
I help spouses to divorce their "old marriage," and start a new one....with each other.
I know the steps both partners need to take to reconnect emotionally and physically.
I wrote my book, HEALING FROM INFIDELITY, to share the effective, step-by-step plan that I use with the couples in my practice so more people could benefit from it.
When you read my book, you'll feel as though I'm in the room with you, coaching you every step of the way to feeling better. You'll get your life back. Let me help you heal your marriage.
