What has changed? What still hurts? How does she interact with her Ex? How are her children doing, and what happened when she came face-to-face with the other woman? And what does moving forward, including stepping back into dating, look like after a betrayal that upended everything?This episode is for anyone who wonders whether the pain ever truly lifts and what life on the other side of devastation can be like.00:00 Introduction01:40 Elisa reflects on her original interview03:10 Interacting with the Other Woman12:45 Reflections on interactions with her Ex20:20 Considering her sons29:00 Dating again33:40 Concluding thoughtsLINKS and EXTRASEpisoded Page: https://www.affairhealing.com/podcasts/060The original episodes of Elisa’s Story: 1-The Betrayal, 2-Clarity, Pain, Choices, 3-The Children, The APNeed personal help?
