The Longest Shortest Time

LST FAVES: The Parents' Guide to Affairs with Esther Perel


Listen Later

Most of us, at some point, will be touched by an affair—whether in our own relationships, or because one of our parents cheated, or because we are a trusted confidant. It’s a scary thing to think about, especially when kids are in the mix. Couples therapist Esther Perel joins us with advice on how to navigate affairs and how to keep them from happening in the first place.

⭐️ This episode originally aired on December 6, 2017 and is a favorite from the LST archives. It’s also part of our ongoing Sex & Parenthood series. We’ll be airing a few episodes from the series over the next few weeks, while we gear up for our next batch of new episodes. You can find the full series here.
