Amy was with her husband (and father of her two children) for 12 years when he suddenly, and without any warning whatsoever, told her that their marriage was over. He had fallen in love with someone else.

This is part 1 of a two-part series in which Amy shares her story. In it, she talks about the life she had with her husband prior to the separation and the trusting relationship she thought they had... She tells me about how they dealt with a terminal cancer diagnosis in the family, renovating the family home and moving in with her inlaws, and the beauty of hindsight. We discuss her grief, trauma, panic attacks, and how she had a breakdown and ended up in a psych ward.

After 12 years with her partner, it turned out her entire relationship had been a lie. Her husband was not the man she thought he was.

Stay tuned for next week's episode where this story is continued...
