Why We Cheat Part 1

About this episode

The episode explores the reasons behind cheating and how to heal from heartbreak, challenging existing beliefs about relationships.

On today's episode Grace leads our conversation about why we cheat from the perspective of a psychotherapist, Esther Perel, and how to heal from heartbreak. This episode will challenge your existing belief system on cheating. We discuss how to not get stuck in the victim mentality by flipping the we mentality of most relationships into the me mentality. This is a re-released episode from the podcast [#14] and will be part one in a two part series.
