The Scarlet Edit: Infidelity, Divorce, Starting Over.

Infidelity, divorce, abuse, the gray areas only discussed in secret, or not at all. These are the stories that shape so many of us, yet rarely get spoken out loud. On The Scarlet Edit, we tell the truth about the parts of modern relationships most people avoid, especially in midlife when the stakes feel higher and the silence feels heavier. Every Thursday, I share honest conversations on midlife relationships, affairs, shame, heartbreak, desire, and what it really takes to start over. You’ll hear
