Why Men & Women Cheat and How to Heal Fr...

Lorin Krenn
About this episode

Infidelity is a painful experience that can shatter trust and cause profound emotional distress. It's a problem that leaves us feeling gutted, wronged and as if the ground has been taken from beneath our feet. It can lead to self-doubt and a severe impact on our trust in ourselves and in our relationship decisions.

People cheat not because they are inherently bad, but because they are dealing with their own trauma and pain. They are out of alignment with their own truth. Healing begins with forgiveness – if we can find it in our hearts – and understanding that the act of cheating is a reflection of the person who cheated, not a reflection of us.

In this episode, Lorin explains why men and women cheat, and offers advice for victims of infidelity as well as those with patterns of cheating.
