Avoidance is one of the most common reactions to emotional pain. It shows up as silence, staying busy, withdrawing, shutting down, or convincing yourself that “things will sort themselves out.” At first it feels protective. Over time, it becomes its own form of suffering and keeps couples stuck in the very patterns they're trying to escape.In this episode, Geoff and Jody explore how avoidance operates in both partners after betrayal and how safely facing difficult truths creates genuine movement in the relationship.What We Cover:For the Betrayed PartnerWhy avoidance often becomes a survival responseHow overwhelm, exhaustion, and cultural pressure to “keep the peace” silence your real needsThe difference between consciously pausing and unconsciously shutting downFor the Recovering PartnerHow shame and fear fuel hiding, minimizing, and delaying accountabilityWhy avoidance blocks repair and prolongs fearThe honest question every recovering partner must answerFor the CoupleHow both partners can slip into a shared pattern of avoidanceWhy comfort, silence, and homeostasis can feel safer than truthHow one partner naming avoidance begins to shift the entire dynamicRemember...avoidance feels safe in the moment, but it interrupts healing.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After BetrayalWhen betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.

One of the most common fears couples face after betrayal is the feeling of being out of sync. One partner seems to be moving faster. The other feels stuck or confused. One wants to talk. The other wants space. And both start wondering, Why aren't we healing the same? What does this say about our relationship?In this episode of From Crisis to Connection, Geoff and Jody unpack why couples never heal at the same pace and why that's not necessarily a sign of failure. It's a sign that each person is doing different work with different starting points, needs, wounds, and responsibilities.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After BetrayalWhen betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.

We grow up believing that if someone truly loves us, they'll just know what we need. That love will automatically teach them how to comfort, protect, and show up in the right ways. But when betrayal or disconnection happens, that belief gets tested—and often shattered.In this episode of From Crisis to Connection, Geoff and Jody talk about why love alone isn't enough to heal after betrayal.

The recovering partner often feels paralyzed by shame and the fear of doing more damage. Both are protecting themselves—and both feel alone.In this episode, Geoff and Jody unpack why calming down together may feel impossible, but is actually key to long-term healing. They explore the natural push-pull dynamic created by betrayal trauma and offer a roadmap for how each partner can move toward stability, individually and together.In This Episode, You'll Learn:For the Betrayed Partner: Why distance is a survival response and why still longing for connection doesn't make you weak or “codependent.”For the Recovering Partner: How your presence is what creates safety, and why allowing your partner to move toward and away from you is one of the most powerful repair actions you can take.For the Couple: How to move out of a cycle of fear, shame, and reactivity and into a shared commitment to safety as the foundation of rebuilding trust.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After BetrayalWhen betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.

We often hear minimizing phrases like “It only happened once” or “Why make such a big deal out of it?” The intention may be to calm fears or move forward quickly—but instead, it often creates more confusion, pressure, and disconnection.In this episode of From Crisis to Connection, Geoff and Jody unpack why “just once” almost never feels small to either partner, and why minimizing actually blocks healing instead of speeding it up.Why “just once” lands as dismissal for the betrayed partner and activates the body's threat responseHow minimizing traps the recovering partner in shame and prevents genuine repairThe hidden pressure this phrase puts on the betrayed partner to get over it quickly and silence their own instinctsThe truth behind one-time breaches: even a single betrayal communicates capability, vulnerability, and riskHow couples get stuck in collusion, both wanting to move on but feeling unsafe or unheardWhat healthy repair looks like instead: honest conversation, space to ask questions, and freedom to explore impactEven if a behavior happened only once, its meaning is never small. One act communicates capacity, shifts safety, and opens the door to doubt. Real healing starts when both partners face the truth openly—not when they minimize it.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After BetrayalWhen betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.

Earn memories, not just media.In this episode of Brand Insider: 1:1, host Kate Terhune goes behind the bar—and behind the brand—with Allison Varone, Head of Marketing at Campari America, the powerhouse behind some of the world's most iconic spirits: Aperol, Campari, Espolòn Tequila, Courvoisier, Grand Marnier, Skyy Vodka, and Wild Turkey.Allison's story begins in the heyday of Martha Stewart Living, where she learned how lifestyle brands connect to emotion, ritual, and aspiration. That foundation shaped her philosophy today: build from culture, not campaigns. From the aperitifs that define Italian summer to the bourbons that anchor American tradition, she's helping Campari America bridge heritage and modern relevance across wildly different categories.In this conversation, Allison and Kate explore:How to create brand experiences that earn memories and emotional connectionThe balance between splashy, buzz-driving campaigns and on-the-ground consumer realityWhat it takes to scale an irreverent brand like Espolòn without losing its gritThe storytelling power behind Aperol at Coachella and Courvoisier's “Bring Your Own” campaignHow insights, data, and cultural cues guide everything from creative testing to portfolio-level strategyWhy the future of spritz culture—and the rise of non-alcoholic offerings like Crodino—isn't just a trend but a shift in lifestyleAllison shares how her team at Campari America combines intelligence, creativity, and instinct to grow iconic brands in a world where consumers crave connection over consumption.Whether you're a marketer, a strategist, or just someone who loves a good cocktail, this episode serves up a refreshing look at the future of luxury, lifestyle, and the stories we sip on.

Most people assume infidelity only matters when it becomes physical, but emotional infidelity can cut just as deep—and often deeper. When your partner gives emotional intimacy, attention, and affection to someone else, it leaves you questioning your place in the relationship and doubting your own instincts.In this episode of From Crisis to Connection, Geoff and Jody unpack why emotional infidelity is so damaging, why it's often minimized, and what couples can do to protect their relationship from these subtle breaches of trust.They explore:Why betrayed partners often feel confused or pressured to minimize emotional cheatingHow “we're just friends” becomes one of the most common forms of denialThe danger of familiarity and unchecked closeness with someone outside the marriageWhy protecting exclusivity in emotional connection matters as much as sexual fidelityHow couples can set healthy boundaries that protect their emotional bondYou'll also hear Geoff and Jody share personal stories from their own marriage, illustrating how even innocent moments—like sharing music or interests too intimately with someone else—can cross emotional boundaries.This episode reframes emotional infidelity as a legitimate breach of trust that requires care, repair, and clarity. You'll learn how to recognize red flags, have honest conversations about boundaries, and protect what's sacred between you and your partner.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After Betrayal Get your copy here.______________________________Join the Courageous Together™ ProgramCourageous Together™ isn't just another course, it's a trauma-informed roadmap that holds both of you in the healing process.

We've all heard the phrase “honesty is the best policy.” But after betrayal, many couples find that simply telling the truth doesn't always bring the healing they hoped for. In fact, sometimes the way truth is shared causes even more pain, confusion, and distance.In this episode of From Crisis to Connection, Geoff and Jody explore why truth on its own isn't enough to rebuild trust—and how it must be paired with safety, accountability, and compassion to actually repair a relationship.You'll hear:Why the way truth is shared can do more harm than goodHow betrayed partners experience “cold truth” that destabilizes rather than healsWhy recovering partners often confuse telling their story with telling the truthHow structure, timing, and accountability create safer truth-tellingWhy full healing requires equal ground, where both partners know the same truthGeoff and Jody unpack the tension between the betrayed partner's right to know and the recovering partner's responsibility to share honestly and safely. You'll learn why disclosure must be structured—not controlled—and how thoughtful truth-telling becomes the foundation for rebuilding trust.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After BetrayalWhen betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.

If you're the betrayed partner, you know what it's like to be hit with waves of emotion that feel impossible to control. One moment you're holding it together, and the next you're flooded with anger, grief, or fear. You may even wonder if you're too much—or if you're going crazy for reacting so strongly.And if you're the recovering partner, you know how unsettling it is to face these storms. You want predictability, calm, and a path forward, but instead you feel powerless and defensive. Both of you are left asking: Why does this keep happening, and what are we supposed to do with it?In this episode of From Crisis to Connection, Geoff and Jody pull apart this cycle so you can finally understand what's really happening underneath these reactions. They explore:Why betrayed partners' strong emotions are survival responses, not “overreactions”How shame fuels defensiveness and blame for the recovering partnerWhy this dynamic often gets mislabeled as a “marriage problem” instead of a betrayal issueThe different responsibilities of each partner in recovery—and why they're not the sameHow couples can begin to work with these emotions instead of against themThe key message: You're not crazy—you've been through something crazy. These strong emotions are a normal, human response to relational trauma. And when both partners can understand and lean into this truth, healing and connection can begin.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After BetrayalWhen betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.

When trust has been broken, the recovering partner often feels pressure to prove they can be trusted again. They may follow instructions perfectly, track progress, and work hard to “get it right.” But instead of bringing closeness, all that proving can backfire—turning the betrayed partner into an audience who feels pressured to respond with gratitude or forgiveness before they're ready.In this episode of From Crisis to Connection, Geoff and Jody unpack why proving often stalls healing and what it means to shift from proving trust to providing safety. They share: • Why performance-based proving creates pressure and can feel transactional • How providing safety relieves pressure and supports the betrayed partner's nervous system • Why safety—not proof—creates the soil where real trust can grow • How couples benefit when the focus shifts from evidence to presence • Practical ways betrayed and recovering partners can move forward at their own paceThe conversation highlights a simple but powerful reframe: trust isn't what builds safety—safety is what builds trust.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After BetrayalWhen betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.

Do you ever feel like you're falling behind in healing? You look around and it seems like everyone else is moving forward while you're stuck, spinning, or even slipping backward. The truth is—you might be doing all the right things, but healing doesn't follow a straight line.In this episode of From Crisis to Connection, Geoff and Jody unpack the belief that you're “behind” in recovery. They explore how this shows up differently for betrayed partners, recovering partners, and couples—and reveal what's really happening beneath the surface.You'll hear: • Why betrayed partners often feel years behind from the moment of discovery • How comparison, past wounds, and betrayal blindness intensify the feeling of being stuck • Why recovering partners live with the fear of being in the “perpetual doghouse” • How couples together can carry a sense of “couple shame” that erases past progress • Why healing is not linear, but layered and indirect—and why that's actually hopefulIf you've ever wondered whether you're doing recovery “right,” this episode will help you see that showing up—even when it feels messy—is part of the healing process.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After BetrayalWhen betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.

Using the story of “Sarah,” a mom running on empty from years of self-sacrifice, Tina unpacks how burnout, resentment, and guilt often come from ignoring our own needs.You'll discover the concept of wise selfishness—a perspective that transforms guilt into grounded self-care, boundaries into deeper love, and personal well-being into stronger family connection.If you've ever felt invisible, resentful, or guilty for saying no, this episode will help you see self-care in a new way: not as selfishness, but as the foundation of real connection.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy the belief that “taking care of yourself is selfish” quietly sabotages family relationshipsHow wise selfishness (a Buddhist teaching) reframes self-care as essential to love and connectionThe generational programming that teaches women to disappear in service of othersWhat happens when you suppress your needs—and why they eventually leak out as resentment or burnoutPractical ways to start honoring your needs without losing closeness with your familyResources & Next StepsReady to go deeper?

After betrayal, couples often find themselves trapped in a cycle. The unfaithful partner wants to explain, while the betrayed partner longs for real accountability. Instead of bringing clarity, explanations often sound like excuses. The betrayed partner feels dismissed, the unfaithful partner feels shut down, and the cycle repeats.In this episode of From Crisis to Connection, Geoff and Jody explore why this dynamic is so common and what couples can do differently. You'll hear:  Why betrayed partners feel torn between their own pain and their natural empathy  How betrayal blindness can lead to minimizing wounds just to keep the peace  Why the recovering partner's instinct to explain often blocks healing  How the order of repair—accountability first, explanation later—creates safety and trust  Practical steps both partners can take to break the cycle and move forwardUsing stories, clinical insights, and personal examples, Geoff and Jody show why accountability must come before explanation and how this shift can transform the healing process.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After BetrayalWhen betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.
