Well with Arielle Lorre

412: Cheating, Compromise & the Myth of 50/50 Love with Nina Westbrook, LMFT


Listen Later

Nina Westbrook is a licensed marriage and family therapist, host of Do Tell podcast, and founder of health and wellness platforms Bene and Nebbi. She joins the show for a candid conversation about the realities of relationships including being an introvert married to a public figure and how she’s learned to say no in order to protect her peace. We explore whether a partner should be responsible for your happiness, the difference between “doing the work” in a relationship versus forcing something that isn’t right, and if every challenge is truly fixable—including infidelity. Nina also shares her perspective on the 50/50 debate, how to maintain independence when you’re deeply connected, and what it’s really like to be married to an athlete. This conversation is equal parts practical wisdom and heartfelt honesty—perfect for anyone navigating love, commitment, and personal growth within a partnership.


Explore Nina's new app, Nebbi, a first-of-its-kind, science-backed mental wellness app designed to help individuals and communities build resilience, embrace mindful living, and cultivate a deeper sense of well-being in their everyday lives: https://www.thenebbiway.io/
