Chris Burkett
About this episode
Welcome back to the "To Be Better" podcast! In Episode 28 of Season 2, we dive into a compelling and emotional listener email that explores the difficulties of broken trust and navigating relationship challenges. This episode, recorded live for our Patreon members, delves deep into the complexities of trust, forgiveness, and personal growth.
The email we discuss comes from a listener who bravely shares his journey of overcoming misdiagnoses, addiction, and tumultuous relationships. His story highlights the impact of infidelity, communication breakdowns, and the struggles of balancing work and family life. We provide thoughtful advice on accountability, the importance of setting standards, and the power of effective communication in building and maintaining healthy relationships.
We also share some personal updates, including Chris’s recent motorcycle purchase and a memorable beach ride. Despite Chris recovering from an illness, our commitment to providing heartfelt and practical advice shines through.
Tune in for an in-depth exploration of personal growth, relationship dynamics, and the steps needed to rebuild trust after it’s been broken. Join us as we offer our unique perspectives and support to help you navigate your own relationship challenges.
