Episode 18
Here, Sam delves into the question many betrayed spouses grapple with: do unfaithful partners truly face consequences for their actions? He explains that awareness and empathy often arise only as the unfaithful do the hard work of confronting their behavior, seeking expert help, and building healthier emotional foundations. As they develop “emotional sobriety,” unfaithful partners begin to understand the depth of damage they’ve caused and the magnitude of their own losses. Listeners learn how, with proper guidance and honest effort, accountability and remorse can lead to genuine healing and deeper relational integrity.
