"I'm doing this for you", he said. This is not such a straight forward statement when two people are not on the same page. There is sacrifice, guilt, regret and even resentment that can come with such a noble idea.

This story is truly about the growing pains of self-discovery and and how one's heart can change over time and there's no significant explanation as to why feelings no longer carry the same weight or meaning.

"It's not you, it's me." Can we take that statement at face value? Or do we read into it and create a story that only emphasizes the shame we feel about ourselves?

Imagine you meet your soul mate, only to find that there's no way to make the relationship evolve past isolated moments of bliss. This is not an easy reality to accept. Kurt found himself more alive than he'd ever known himself to be; he also found himself empty, exhausted and confused. Why could a connection so strong fall so short?

That's not all. Newly single, he met another woman who showed him unconditional love. He was starved for this love but didn't have closure with his twin flame. Alas, in he lept with the best of intentions, only to find himself in shallow waters leaving Ms. Unconditional with the pain of heartache.

They loved each other, they were young, they were pregnant and they got married. Shortly after their son was born, Jenn found out he had fluid in his skull, that her husband was cheating on her and that the doctor thought they might be hurting their newborn!

They survived the tragedies but eventually the marriage ended. A second relationship ensued where Jenn found herself pregnant and with a man that ultimately did not choose her.

Through all her heartache, she has come through the other side and is learning to be strong, courageous and stand up for herself in ways, even if they terrify her! You are in for a rollercoaster ride of emotion and triumph!

Why is hindsight so powerful? One reason is the clarity with which we see the past. Our narrative has fewer gaps and we can see missed opportunities or the error in our ways.

It's often unpleasant to discover where we were wrong. It happens so often in relationships as we reflect on how it started one way and ended another.

I have found we are often hard on ourselves or amiss to the insights that our emotions cloud. How can we better embrace when we're wrong? How can we recover from those rough moments and emotions? Listen as we hear from Kathryn, a "wrongologist", who will shed some light on this topic.

Chrissy is a survivor of childhood traumas and when she married "J", it was because he was a stable guy and he had a great family.

After awhile, she noticed her body had many ill symptoms physically, mentally, and emotionally. She had some good and bad habits to cope with her situation.

...She spent too much money, she slept too much, she didn't work for awhile, her meds weren't helping, and she was criticized, instead of supported, by her husband. She thought about escaping life in a variety of ways and her body was letting her know she was dying. Something needed to give in order for her to come out of the grip of death and despair.

Eventually, she found a silver lining to help her health turn a corner! Unfortunately, she could not find a way to pursue her health and save her marriage. She asked for a divorce and since has been navigating temptations, trials and victories quite differently than ever before.

Listen as we hear Chrissy's journey of insight, healing and transformation.
