Our guest for this episode, Rev. Monical Humpal, helps clients recover from betrayal, with a special emphasis on clients who choose to reconcile. Monica speaks from experience: she tells us about her own marriage, betrayal, and reconciliation journey.

Judy and I found Monica’s story both moving and inspiring, and I hope you will too.
