Beyond Infidelity

Episode 3

Spotify - Episode 3

This episode isn’t really about infidelity.
At least, not the kind we usually talk about.

It started with a song title that made me pause: Cheating On Me.
Not cheating on you. Not cheating with someone.
On me.

Kwabs’ voice is deep, almost ancestral. But when you really listen to the lyrics, something shifts. This isn’t a story about betrayal from the outside. It’s about drifting. About passivity. About the quiet ways we abandon ourselves while building lives that make sense on paper.

I talk about the moment everything cracked open — an encounter that changed nothing… and revealed everything. About choosing stability over desire. About silencing parts of myself for years. About mistaking calm for fulfillment. And about how denial, when it lasts too long, doesn’t disappear, it settles into the body.

For me, infidelity wasn’t about another person.
It was about hunger.
For aliveness. For desire. For a version of myself I had left behind.

Track 3 is dense, uncomfortable, and deeply honest. It’s about the moment you realize the heartbreak wasn’t caused by someone else but by the years you spent not listening to yourself.

If you’ve ever lived well but not fully alive… This episode is for you.

🎧 Listen to Cheating On Me.
And see what comes back to you.
