Today’s episode is incredibly important for understanding WHY affairs happen. 


Why do we cheat on people we care about? What’s really happening beneath the surface when affairs happen? I take you deep into the emotional and psychological roots of cheating, using the lens of attachment theory to help make sense of it all.

I break down how anxious, avoidant, and disorganized attachment styles show up in relationships—and how they can contribute to betrayal. But this episode isn’t just about the “why”… it’s also about the healing.

Here are three big things we explore together in this episode:

  • Why emotional intimacy is often the missing link in relationships where affairs happen

  • How your attachment style may drive unconscious behaviors that lead to betrayal

  • What it really takes to move toward secure love and deep connection

The Empowered.Secure.Loved.  Relationship Program ™  is designed to help you rewire your brain and help you embody secure attachment so you can easily attract the relationships you deserve, and attain the life you truly want.
