Life After Infidelity – Empty Bed, Heavy Heart | Episode 6


Listen Later

In this episode, I open up about one of the hardest stretches of my journey. From the breaking point where I finally said out loud, “We are not a family anymore,” to the shower rage that left me trembling, to the heartbreak of crawling into a cold bed where my husband once lay, I share the raw reality of living through betrayal and divorce.

I talk about revamping my bedroom to reclaim my space, facing what would have been our 22nd wedding anniversary, and how awkward it felt sitting across the bleachers at football games — wanting him there for the kids, but aching inside every time I saw him. I also reflect on the first celebration apart, the moment I signed a birthday card “Love, Mom” instead of “Mom and Dad,” and how those little things hit harder than I ever expected.

This episode also takes you inside my first steps toward divorce — meeting with attorneys, filling out overwhelming paperwork, and realizing I was starting to dismantle 22 years of a life we built together.

It’s heavy. It’s honest. It’s me — still standing, still fighting, still moving forward.

If you’re in this season yourself, I hope my words remind you that you are not alone. You are stronger than you feel right now, and there is life and love waiting for you beyond this heartbreak.
