He Walked In On the Affair — That Night Changed Everything
from Feck It, No More · host Glenn Monaghan
James walked in on his wife's affair. He stood there with a rage he thought he'd never be able to control — and chose to walk away for the sake of his kids. What came next was the hardest years of his life. Co-parenting through the wreckage of a marriage. Finding ultra running as a survival mechanism. Sitting on a curb at a servo at 3am with a sausage roll, wondering who he was becoming. And slowly — painfully slowly — choosing self-belief over the self-doubt that had driven him for as long as he could remember. James tells the full story. The affair. The rage. The rock bottom moment nobody plans for. The co-parenting reality. And what the other side of all of it actually looks like. Topics: marriage breakdown, walking away with dignity, the psychology of self-doubt, ultra running and mental health, co-parenting after betrayal, and choosing anew chapter.
