He Cheated But I Love Him

Alix Earle
About this episode

(VIDEO PODCAST AVAILABLE ON SPOTIFY AND YOUTUBE) For the first time online, Alix shares the sad intricacies of her first heartbreak. She details the on and off relationship she shared with an older guy, referred to as “Chad”, and the mistakes they made along the way. She remembers a time she caught him cheating…or the many times... and the shocking events that transpired after. She reflects on how her past insecurities lead her to accept Chad’s destructive behavior and offers the wisdom she’s gained in hindsight. Alix guides her listeners down a more independent path and looks towards a future full of self-love and independence.
