About this listen

What happens when betrayal runs so deep that the very idea of forgiveness feels like a punch in the gut?

In this powerful episode of Marriage IQ, we dive into one of the most emotionally charged topics in relationships—what forgiveness is, what it isn’t, and why it’s so complicated.

From a 70-year-old woman who called forgiveness "the F word" after discovering her husband's double life, to Nobel Peace Prize winner Desmond Tutu’s radical example of grace during South Africa’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission, we explore real-life stories and cutting-edge research from Dr. Frank Fincham.

You’ll also hear a deeply personal story from Heidi about finally facing her ex-husband after decades of hurt—and finding unexpected peace. Whether you’re wrestling with resentment, wondering if forgiveness makes you weak, or trying to understand how to let go without forgetting, this episode will meet you where you are.

We’re not here to offer clichés. We’re here for the raw, messy, and deeply human journey of choosing peace over bitterness. Tune in—this might be the most important conversation you hear all year.
