#329 How to Heal After Infidelity with Lauren LaRusso

In today’s expert episode, I’m sitting down with Lauren LaRusso, a psychotherapist specializing in extramarital affairs and author of "Beyond Infidelity." We go deep into the complex world of infidelity—why it happens, how it affects everyone involved (the betrayed partner, the unfaithful partner, and the affair partner), and the unique challenges of healing from relationship betrayal. Lauren shares her own story of navigating betrayal in her marriage and offers powerful insights for those questioning whether to stay or leave after infidelity, unpacking the layers of shame, grief, and recovery. We discuss rebuilding trust (in yourself and others), how to hold space for all your feelings, and why healing after cheating is such a nuanced process. This episode is packed with wisdom for anyone healing from heartbreak, considering forgiving an affair, or looking to better understand the ripple effects of betrayal.
