What if the person you trusted most was living a double life?
What minute I'm married, I stayed home up,
and the next minute I need to go and speak with the FBI.
He's the last person that I would have thought would do this.
Because I was like, oh, are you in the witness protection program?
I realized, wow, he is not a mentor.
He's pretty much a monster.
It makes you look back and question every word, every moment,
and wonder what was real.
When we would have intimacy,
there was oftentimes that he would call me her name.
Even like pretended to cry one time, Academy Award.
This was something way bigger than I could even imagine.
Betrayal Weekly is back for season two with brand new stories.
I feel trapped. My breathing changes.
It's like, ah, kind of light bulb moment.
Oh my God.
Oh, my God.
I got.
Then I started to piece a lot of the story together.
And I went white.
I was furious.
I was nauseated.
I didn't know what to think or what to do.
More money, more money, more money.
And then I ran out of there.
I was shaking.
I was trembling.
I swear I'm not crazy.
But I think he poisoned me.
From hidden cults.
He would tell some of them that they were twin flames.
Whatever God's man wants, God's man gets.
To betrayals between lifelong friends.
And she's not a thief. Not a chance.
I was completely in denial.
A mother with ulterior motives.
There was a safety deposit box in Malaysia that her and I had the key to,
that was a secret and I wasn't allowed to tell anyone that it existed.
And shocking manipulations.
This didn't just happen to me.
It happened to hundreds of other people.
I would go to the bank and he had depleted all the accounts.
And I said, you need to call 911.
And he said, no, I'm a doctor.
You're going to be fine.
But these aren't just stories of destruction.
They're stories of survival, of people picking up the pieces and daring to tell the truth.
I'm going to tell my story and I'm going to hold my head up.
I don't need to carry the shame.
I refuse to live my life.
not trusting people.
Season two of Betrayal Weekly starts August 7th.
New stories, new voices.
I feel like people deserve to know.
Every betrayal is different, but the fallout, it changes everything.
That was the point of no return for me.
Hey, I'm Dr. Maya Shunker, a cognitive scientist and hosts of the podcast, a slight change of plans,
a show about who we are and who we become when life makes other plans.
I wish that I hadn't resisted for so long the need to change.
We have to be willing to live with a kind of uncertainty that none of us likes.
You can have opinions, you can have like a strong stance, and then there's your body having its own program.
