I Shared My Biggest Secret — And Still Put Myself in a Box

I was the other woman for five years. He was married. It wasn't the plan — but it happened, and it changed everything about how I see love, relationships, and myself.

The Scarlet Edit is my podcast. I started it because I was tired of carrying my story in silence and I knew I wasn't the only one. This is where I talk about affairs, infidelity, cheating, divorce, and starting over — without shame, without the moral lectures, and without pretending that love and relationships fit into the neat little boxes everyone wants them to.

I'm Nikki Corbett. I've been the other woman. I've been divorced. I'm on the other side — and I have a lot to say about it. I talk about the process of owning my self worth - what I actually want, who I actually am, and what love looks like when you stop performing and start being honest.

Every Thursday, I share what I'm learning, what I'm living, and what I'm still figuring out. Sometimes that's a solo episode where I go deep on my own experience — falling in love with a married man, the loneliness of affairs, the grief that comes after you walk away from something that wasn't yours to keep. Sometimes it's a conversation with a guest who has been through their own version of the mess — narcissistic abuse, toxic relationships, divorce in midlife, secret relationships, or the slow process of rebuilding after everything falls apart.

This show is for the woman who has been the other woman and never had a safe place to talk about it. For the woman going through a divorce she didn't see coming. For the woman stuck in a marriage that looks fine on the outside but feels dead on the inside. For the woman who is dating again after years and has no idea what she's doing. For the woman who is choosing to be alone and is learning that solo doesn't mean lonely. The woman who was the one who cheated and is carrying that too. And for anyone who has ever been told that their story makes them less worthy of love — it doesn't.

I don't have all the answers. I'm not a therapist. I'm just a woman who decided to stop being quiet about the things we're all going through but nobody wants to say out loud. If you've ever thought "am I the only one?" — you're not. Pull up a chair. Let's talk about it.
