The Side Show - Forgiveness

[@J-G2023]

I really needed to hear this. I’m married to my partner of 10 years. Last night I almost wrote in an email to you guys hoping to get some insight on some recent confessions from my husband. I forgave him, but I have been punishing him for the wrong doings. While he’s been working to restore our foundation as husband and wife. This gave me some sort of hope. I don’t know if I will regret my decision to stay with him, I hope to God I don’t. But I know I want to at least try. Especially since he is trying.

[@krissysanchez5965]

I understand this and feel this completely but me and my partner are in our early 20s and barley married for almost 2yrs and it feels like the relationship has been through hell and back. Me and him are working on it and so far things have been okay. Not everyone changes but sometimes enough pain does can get someone to change.

Let's go forgiveness is one of the hardest things to do once hurt

[@Shelllayyy]

Totally didn't start crying as soon as she read " miles away on the interstate I forgave my wife" 😭

[@Keepingitkealialikeamotha]

I also did not start crying 😅❤

[@J-Dito]

Lol. Soul soup. Seeing you get excited as Chris "got it" and then watching him mess with the soup 😅

[@BellesCozyLifestyle]

I see Chris's way of talking as if you come to him and say hey this happened, what do you think? And he would say, do you want the truth or be coddled. And people want the truth, so he delivers that truth. And the truth doesn't come with coddling.

[@aliciamarie770]

I feel like the way he said it he forgave me for all my wrongs 😭 that hit so hard

[@lizbenedictis4331]

Sometimes you have to rewatch an episode or two in order to really recieve the message. I love yall. Thanks for all you do

[@Keepingitkealialikeamotha]

This episode really hit home but I love to hear people actually doing life together!No matter the opticals and mistakes which is supposed be what being married is ( even if they arnt married). Most of the time people just give up and when giving up shouldn’t be an option because you have dedicated yourselves to spending the rest of your lives together. Forgiving is the hardest part but the most rewarding part of being married! No one tells you to the extent how hard it is to work at and over come things but they should also tell you how worth it is. ❤I loved this so much!

I cannot stress how much a adore this couple. Every single discussion is so spot on. My husband and I are in our fifth year together and we were both HOT messes when we met. I was an alcoholic, he was an alcoholic drug addict and also had an addiction to 🌽. I got pregnant out 3rd MONTH together so obviously I sobered up immediately. It took him two more years to overcome all of those addictions and actually see that they were a problem and that he didn't want to live that way. It took SO much rebuilding and still can bring some challenges even though it's been 2.5 years of sobriety, honesty, and trust building. I loved him outside of his struggles and I believed I owed it to my daughter to try EVERYTHING possible to solidify our relationship before walking away. And by the GRACE OF GOD me showing him love and empathy through those times made something in his brain click that he wanted to be a good man, not only for us, but in life in general. Point of this long drawn out thing, forgiveness is ESSENTIAL for any relationship. I'm not saying everyone should or even could stick it out and forgive the things I did. But you always owe it to yourself to forgive those who have done you wrong. And you must be able to forgive your partner. It's not easy to spend your life with another imperfect human being.

Love the long detailed thank you emails . Sometimes i tear up . ✌🏻❤️ thx peaches and chris , keep up the great podcast .

[@sandratorres7402]

“Thank You” are my favorite so far! ❤❤❤❤

[@sawzaw4953]

Yes definitely enjoy the thank you letters. Opens my eyes to see that everyone can change in the worse of themselves

[@Moonbean-h7g]

I know I’m so late to this video but yes we need these videos!!!

[@virginiatippery1792]

I really like listening to some of Pastor Gene Kim’s bible studies and sermons on KZbin. Highly recommend. After growing up in church.. he really blew the lid off some things for me and my husband.

[@adriannavera9614]

This is better than therapy!!!!! ❤ it!!

[@damitawebb3640]

I have started realizing how bad I’ve allowed things to get due to my reactions. I have had some toxic behaviors. Y’all have honestly helped me realize my wrongs. It’s helping my healing phase. Thank you both! ❤️❤️

[@MicLilly]

I agree with this. I’ve watched every episode in eight days and it changed me so much. I don’t agree w everything they say, but they’re very smart and awesome

[@makaylasheehan9788]

I needed a podcast like this in my life.

[@ceruleanfirefly67]

This episode nailed me in the feels, hard.

[@toshiacopas7751]

tears. love you both

[@abigul]

God, I can’t imagine getting emails with information about how a person, especially a child, is getting abused. What a horrible position to put a person in. Love what y’all are doing. About a year and a half ago, I discovered my husband’s infidelity. It’s been a long road to reconciliation but has been so worth it. Even though I have forgiven my husband, things like this are an incredible reminder as to why I stayed and that there’s nothing wrong with giving your significant other a second chance - as long as there is genuine remorse and accountability being taken. Thanks for everything y’all do ♥️

[@ambergerman8504]

This hits me hard. Thank you!

[@virginiatippery1792]

I have a hard time letting things go… but also it’s less with my husband and more with family members. I will move on in the sense I won’t bring it up but when I get in my head some of those things still hurt.

[@KatieChamberlayne]

Love love love the new set up!!! Great job y’all ❤

[@mo.sapoet]

chris seems really happy in this episode.. i love that for him

[@tonyakuby8880]

Such a nice set!! All I can think is how I wish that door behind Peaches was painted black to match the wall 🤣🤣

[@jenniferlynn3721]

Making big ticket purchases without discussing with me, example: 60,000 truck not once but 3 times and I clearly expressed my concerns and what those actions do the relationship. Trust. Selfishness. I am done. 13 yrs . I learned so much. Healed and have done personal work. Earned my life coaching certification. All the while have unraveled from the inside out. Painful and hard. Totally worth it. Filed for divorce. I have let go of him, the material things. He can have it all. I just will not participate in trying to get him to value me or invest in the marriage. Moving forward. ❤

[@chrystalmoore5254]

You r something so different and abaolutely beautiful I've never ever watched you guys before and Idk y lol You were beyond helpful and I look forward to watching your journey!

[@honeypot4650]

I love this! I love the thank you emails!

[@sarah_smith2721]

This whole episode hit so hard and multiple ways. Love this content

[@lornasalvatore182]

This was a great video - so many things to learn and take in To not run when things get difficult is hard, but worth it

[@talkwithdebb3300]

Your right

[@trafalafel2856]

The soul soup reminds me of these books I had as a kid called Chicken Soup for the Soul

[@sheldonrunkey6160]

Omg everytime she says soup, all i think of is the "good soup" meme.

[@MossyWook]

I mean kudos to that guy, but I know personally I'll forgive someone, but I'll never trust them again 😅 thats why cheating ALWAYS equals a break up for me. I hope his relationship last, no matter how outlandish the idea seems to me.

[@pixehkrisseh]

You guys have the sappiest imaginations, and I love it

[@marisacorrea1188]

Soup for the soul!😂 I was following you the whole way like yes!!!😊

[@TillermansTea]

Bless you folks 🌪️🌶️🍲🌊❤️‍🔥🙏

[@sfrazier5100]

Please clip and post on tiktok what peaches had to say about forgiveness from around the 7:00 to 8:00 minute mark!! I will repost a million times!! Love y’all’s content.

[@nagmerrie4600]

This is a good episode. Made me feel to greatful for myself in making the decision to quit alcohol . It's been about 2 years since I have given up alchohol. It's a mayor issue in society . I never can stresss it enough. It's toxic on every level. I hate that it is soooo extremely normal to drink. I do struggle with weed though heeh , but I feel like it is less destructive and I also don't get the hang over and depression from weed. I was wondering . My partner doesn't really like when I smoke , Ofcourse I am different when I am stoned. How do you guys tackle that ? I heard Peachie smokes from time to time. Do you mind Chris? whats your outlook on it ?

[@shaunamelton86]

He felt relieved. Finally.. to lay that baggage down.

[@Jenel1696]

I can’t find the self sabotage video! It’s only showing up on my Apple podcast. I’m still listening to it though!

[@AGUTTERGHOST]

I would love to see more men POVs and emails from men, it's interesting to hear how he words things vs women

[@CurrentJourney]

Something I thought of when you said "Abuse is abuse" - "Abnormal Use" is where we get the term abuse. Are you with a taker? Are you with a manipulator? Are you being used to an extent that it is not healthy? You're with an abuser, even if you have never physically been harmed

[@morgangonzalez4405]

Wish u could clip the part towards the end where Chris says stop drinking while depressed cuz it makes it worse.

[@leandramartinez6503]

i love that top!!! where did you get that peaches
