Tune in to episode #7 of the Choosing to Stay podcast, where Stephanie engages in a thought-provoking dialogue with a distinguished guest, Danielle Lew. Danielle expounds on her experience of electing to remain in a relationship while leveraging her proficiency in the field. She underscores the significance of approaching partner betrayal through the prism of trauma, seeking assistance and therapeutic aid from certified experts and practitioners, and also reveals a tale of redemption.

About Danielle Lew:

Danielle is no stranger to hurt, depression, anxiety, addiction, and betrayal trauma; both in her childhood and in her marriage. 

She is married to Derek and while she knew early on of his addiction to substances, she did not know there was another addiction lurking in the background. Pornography.  She recalls saying, “But I know he would never cheat on me…”.  It wasn't until several years and 3 children later that God led 

Danielle opened up Derek's laptop to see the truth - he was acting out. She didn’t realize that the addiction to substances and pornography fueled one another in an insidious cycle of drugs, porn, guilt, shame, drugs, porn, guilt, shame…  

Danielle realized quickly that no matter what her husband was doing or not doing, she was responsible for herself. This was liberating and empowering. She worked on healing wounds, developing boundaries, and putting her faith in Jesus; not in her husband. She knew she had to surrender Derek at the foot of the cross.  Derek ultimately chose to fight for their marriage and they are now experiencing redemption in their 20+ years together.  

Danielle helps women as a Coach (APSATS trained) and as a Group Facilitator through her practice Danielle Nicole Coaching & several other Christ-Centered organizations

She is passionate about helping women & couples live an abundant life by finding their identity in Christ and taking back any areas of the body, mind, and spirit that the enemy has tried to steal, kill, or destroy!
