Heart Work After Betrayal - Helping women heal their marriages after infidelity Blindsided by betrayal? Struggling to trust him — or even yourself — again? Wondering where God is as you long for your marriage to be healed? Whether the betrayal happened days ago or years ago, whether the pain is raw or quietly unresolved, whether you’re torn between staying and leaving or holding onto hope for reconciliation while unsure how healing is supposed to happen — you are not alone. I’m Julia Carlton — a relationship recovery coach, wife of 24 years, homeschooling mom of three, and a woman who has walked through betrayal and found healing on the other side. When I discovered my husband’s infidelity seven years into our marriage — and learned I was pregnant just one week later — my world shattered. I didn’t know who to trust, or who I was anymore. The long road that followed rebuilt not only my marriage, but my peace, my voice, and my identity in Christ. This podcast exists because healing a marriage after betrayal requires more than survival — it requires deep, honest heart work. And because no woman should have to carry that work alone. Each weekly episode offers: Biblically rooted truth for women seeking to heal their marriages after infidelity Simple, sustainable coaching tools for long-term recovery and reconciliation Support for navigating betrayal trauma, anxiety, and intrusive thoughts Guidance to rebuild emotional safety, trust, and connection over time Encouragement to recognize how God is present and at work, even here Healing a marriage does not mean rushing forgiveness, minimizing betrayal, or carrying responsibility that isn’t yours. It means doing the heart work — slowly, truthfully, and with hope. This podcast is a steady companion for that journey. You don’t have to have everything figured out. Healing is possible. Reconciliation is possible. And you don’t have to walk this road alone.
