In this insightful episode of We Chat Divorce, Karen and Catherine welcome Lora Cheadle, an attorney, TedX speaker, and betrayal recovery coach, to discuss the profound impact of financial betrayal in divorce. Lora, the author of Flaunt: Drop Your Cover and Reveal Your Smart, Sexy, and Spiritual Self and host of the podcast Flaunt: Create a Life You Love After Infidelity and Betrayal, shares her journey from personal betrayal to empowering others to heal and reclaim their identities.

Together, they explore:

  • The various types of betrayal — financial, emotional, and even self-betrayal — and how they affect self-trust and decision-making
  • How cultural conditioning can lead to overlooking financial independence and self-advocacy, especially for women
  • Actionable steps for self-recovery, such as journaling and movement, to process emotions and rebuild confidence
  • Lora’s “Flaunt” methodology: a five-step process to embrace authenticity and reclaim personal power, defined as:
  • Find Your Fetish
  • Laugh Out Loud
  • Accept Unconditionally
  • Navigate the Negative
  • Trust in Your Truth

Lora candidly shares her experience of betrayal and the personal work that led her and her husband to reconciliation, highlighting that the path forward — whether together or apart — must honor one’s own needs and growth. Her “Flaunt” framework serves as a guide to shed societal expectations and live fully as your authentic self.
