In today's episode I answer the following question: 

"When one has been unfaithful and subsequently made the decision to stay in the relationship and not to share (and feels good about this decision), what really needs to be examined? Yourself, desires, the relationship, the other person...where to start!?

If the infidelity has absolutely 100% enhanced the partnership (without telling the partner - just by shifting a few things personally) where to then? Can you REALLY keep it to yourself, forgive yourself and move on together in the long term?"

Tune in to hear my advice.
