In this episode of Choosing To Stay After Infidelity and Betrayal, we explore the complex and often unspoken topic of shame for the betrayed partner who chooses to stay. Choosing to stay after betrayal can feel isolating, especially in a world that often labels this decision as weak or misguided. But staying is a courageous choice, rooted in love, resilience, and hope. Together, we’ll unpack the origins of shame, its impact on your healing journey, and practical ways to overcome it so you can reclaim your power and peace. We also share ways that the spouse seeking recovery can acknowledge and support their betrayed partner through these difficult emotions.
