In the latest episode of "The After the Affair", join me as I navigate the treacherous waters of sudden change post-infidelity.
This change can leave us feeling disoriented and desperate for control, but what if we changed our perspective? What if we chose to view this alteration not as a disastrous upheaval but as a challenging opportunity for personal growth and self-discovery? As I venture into these deep waters, I’ll discuss the importance of reframing mindset, and learning to accept change, rather than resisting it.
Delve deeper into this topic with me as together we can explore how fighting change can only prolong the pain and delay the healing process.
I’ll discuss and uncover various strategies to cope with this major shift in your personal life. From mindfulness to prioritizing self-care and reaching out to your support networks, learn practical and effective techniques to accept and embrace change. Listen in to discover how you can convert life's unexpected detours into transformative paths towards growth and recovery.

When we see things that aren't right in our relationships and have no idea how to fix them ... the easiest thing to do is look around and see what everyone else is doing.
We spend most of our lives trying to figure stuff out by comparison. The problem with this is, 'comparison is the thief of joy'. We are left feeling like we aren't good enough, or our partners aren't good enough. If only they would change and everything would be ok!
Join me today in a fascinating conversation with Master Certified Coach Jen Frey as we talk about confidence, worthiness, shame, the Reticular Activating System and the problem of looking externally to solve our relationship problems.

Join me in this episode as I explore the lesser-known world of Quantum Energy Healing with Forgiveness expert, Nicole Harvick.
She believes all healing must start with Self-Forgiveness.Some of the modalities that she uses in her healing practice include Reiki,Sound Therapy, Cellular Memory Healing, and Mild Hypnosis.
She can pinpoint stuck energies from ancestral or childhood trauma whichneed to be identified and released to facilitate the healing process. Nicole has always been in communication with the spirit world but in 2010, she began to reach a deeper understanding of spirit and how they communicate. She discovered that spirits sense things the same way that humans do and that they move towards those with the gift of mediumship. They speak to those with open minds and hearts that accept and believe in their world and move towards those who are not afraid of them. It was at this time that she began to communicate with the spirit world on a regular basis.
Nicole uses her Clair abilities which include Clairaudience (hearing voices) Clairvoyance (seeing images) Clairsentience (feelings) and Clair cognizance (knowing) Working with these abilities has helped Nicole to be more intuitive with her clients needs and to help them explore aspects of themselves buried deeply in their subconscious.
Nicole is a notable speaker on such topics as Forgiveness, Self-Love, and Self-Healing.
Her goal is to touch as many lives as possible by helping people to find what they desire, require, and deserve which then allows them to walk their earthly journey with emotional freedom, love, and grace.Find out more about Nicole: www.nicoleharvick.com
