Facing the Fear of Intimacy After an Affair with Jay Stringer

Months or even years after infidelity, intimacy can still feel like the thing you want most and the risk you can't afford to take. You want to be known but can't imagine letting your guard down again. In this episode, we are joined by licensed mental health counselor and author Jay Stringer (Desire, Unwanted) and Affair Recovery's Laurie Bryson to talk about what intimacy is (more than just sex), why the grief and anger you're carrying may be the raw ingredient of connection rather than the barrier to it, and how couples begin to write a new script for intimacy. These wounds won't heal themselves, but they can heal.
