The Taboo of Cheating, Shame and What It Take To Find Love - with Alex Croxford

What happens when you’re the one who crossed the line? In this deeply honest conversation, I sit down with transformational love and relationship coach Alex Croxford to talk about a kind of betrayal that doesn’t get much airtime — the kind where you’re the one who cheated. Together, we explore what it really takes to come home to yourself after breaking trust, and why cheating, especially by women, is still so taboo. Alex shares her personal story of infidelity and divorce, and the radical self-truths she had to face in order to truly heal. We talk about the deep conditioning around being a “good girl,” how shame can keep you stuck in cycles of self-abandonment, and why you’re not inherently bad if you’ve cheated. This episode is a reclamation, for the woman who feels broken, unworthy, or beyond repair. For the woman who's still trying to outrun what she did, or what was done to her. In this episode, we explore: why self-abandonment — not desire — is often the root of cheating, what emotional intimacy actually requires in a relationship, the truth about shame and female infidelity, how to reconnect to love, desire, and self-trust after rupture, and why you don’t need to be the “good girl” to be worthy of love. This conversation is for the woman who thought healing meant punishment — when really, it means coming home. — Connect with Alex: Instagram: @iamalexcroxford → Come say hi on Instagram: @lucy__maeve → Learn more about 1:1 coaching
