The need to punish and the constant obsessing is gone
Suzie, There is a small chart I copied into my journal off of your website at the beginning of this dark journey. It contains 3 stages. I can't tell you how many times I have looked at that chart asking myself when I would get to stage 3- Learning and Acceptance? It seemed like I would never truly get there. In an odd twist of fate it was my trip to CA that gave me the final push. The first week, of my two week trip proved to be unpleasant and challenging at best. I wrestled my ego what seemed like minute by minute. It was mentally exhausting. And it was inside of one of the most impulsive things I have ever done that I found peace. Faced with having lived in CA for 10 years and never taking the opportunity to go see the Golden Gate Bridge, I made the decision to go at 5:00 pm Saturday night. As I made it to my destination and I stood on a hill top staring over the Bay area with the Golden Gate Bridge in my foresight (a life long dream of mine), I embraced that moment and felt so courageous...
You truly are a phenomenal person and coach
Hi Suzie! I wanted to thank you so very much for our call last Tuesday. It REALLY was helpful in a number of ways. You just don’t know. Thank you again for all that you do. Our sessions have been more valuable than I can express. You truly are a phenomenal person and coach. (and that's from me and Matthew)
Forgiving Infidelity was exactly what I needed
Thank you, Suzie. Your Marriage Rehab course has been very helpful. Forgiving Infidelity was exactly what I needed. I am not a self-help kind of person, and when I was blindsided by my husband’s affair (a year and a half after it was over), I didn’t want to confide in anybody. My husband and I decided to work through this together because we love each other very much. It’s a very personal thing, and we wanted to try this before we headed to a marriage counselor. I found it to be insightful and tactful. Again, thank you so much. Your site and coaching programs are wonderful resources!
I woke to the best morning I have had in well over a year
Suzie, Thank you, thank you, thank you. I woke to the best morning I have had in well over a year. We have done such amazing work over the last 2 days. I can't wait for day 3. Your insight, knowledge and personality, along with your tools you have provided me, have shortened a very difficult journey. Thank you for the bonus... a new perspective in dealing with my relationship with my daughter.
I just ended an affair with a married man
Thank you for this. I just ended an affair with a married man who I really at a point believed loved me and told me he was going to leave his marriage. But when it came to times I needed real results, he said he can't give me answers at this time. So I knew I had to leave. It lasted 7 months. But I before that, we were friends for over 10 years and it hurts. I ended it a few days ago and I was looking for support of course. This is one of the best things I've read. So I just want to say thank you.
Extremely helpful so far
My husband and I have found GoAskSuzie to be extremely helpful so far. I would (and have) recommended this site to all my friends who are having these types of issues. Thank you!
I am wrapping my mind and heart around trying to forgive
The sessions really did help me a lot. I am now practicing to look to where my anger is pointing and trying to not get caught up in obsessing in knowing answers to things that really have answers and do not heal. I am wrapping my mind and heart around trying to forgive... myself, others in this, and others in my past... as I am finding the process also leads me into childhood events as well. Thanks for everything. You and Suzie are angels!
It’s like I knew you!
Suzie, Thank you so much for your time and giving me the tools for my journey to neutral and internal peace. I'm so grateful for the universe for putting you in my path of healing. What amazed me the most was how quickly you not only understood me and my situation but how my mind was processing everything which then you were able to give me exactly what I needed. You were so easy to talk to as well. It's like I knew you! I went back to work after 5 weeks of being home and am not only putting the health issue behind me but also the situation that happened. It's like starting fresh with a new perspective on life. Please keep doing what you're doing, because you're absolutely amazing and are helping so many people like me who have no where else to go. I wish you and your family success, happiness and a lifetime of Love! With Deepest Gratitude
Her words reach the bottom of the heart
It seems that Suzie knows everything, and her words reach the bottom of the heart, as I was crying all 20 minutes. She is like a ray of light showing the right direction in the darkness of my own thoughts. It's very difficult not to start thinking negatively, but I will try to stick to her guidance. Thank God we have such person as Suzie who can find the words we seek for. Thanks for all your team for doing such a great job!
Thanks to you guys for responding so quickly all the time
Thanks to you guys for responding so quickly all the time. You really do have a great approach and cannot tell you how much it is appreciated.
It was by the grace of God that I found Suzie
I believe that nothing that happens in this world is a coincidence. It was by the grace of God that I found Suzie Johnson during one of the most challenging and difficult experiences of my life. My husband of 15 years betrayed my trust by having sex with another woman whom he known for only a couple days. I found out in a very shocking and hurtful way and was suffering tremendous emotional and mental pain when I found Suzie Johnson’s website. I was desperately scouring the internet for information about how to deal with infidelity when I found her words. Words that I so desperately needed to hear. It was as if my higher self was speaking to me through her words. Forgiveness – this was the word that jumped off the computer screen at me and the idea that caught my soul’s attention. Suzie points out on her website that true forgiveness is a sign of intelligence, strength and maturity. Despite my immense sadness and anger -- that was who I wanted to be. At that moment I knew I wanted to attempt the path of true forgiveness and felt an immediate feeling of relief in just the...
I am so thankful I found this program
I am so grateful for this site and this help. I can't wait to be a walking testimony of this program. I've already listened to "First Aid" twice and enjoyed my Quiet 10 last night. I'm now on step two of the Betrayed Recovery Home Study course. I am so thankful I found this program. Thank you so much! I can't even describe the help Suzie is to me!! I'm excited to keep going.
REAL Love DOES win
I am so grateful for this website!!! I just went through an emotional affair that caused me a lot of heartache, tears, and guilt. When I was finally ready to come out of denial, this site helped me so much! My therapist was not even close in helping as much as this site. I was finally "willing" to let go and that was my light bulb moment. I know I have strong will power and within a day I feel like a new person. Free from all of the angst and anxiety I felt while going through the affair. Realizing that my 16 year marriage is real love, even if it's not as exciting and "fun" (or so I thought, it really was not that fun going thru this!), we have a strong commitment, history, support, children, and longevity that far surpasses anything the affair could offer. I would encourage anyone going through an emotional affair to pore over Suzi's articles and face the reality of the situation. I had to read them several times to make it sink in. I had convinced myself that this was a "real" relationship and if we could just be together my life would...
I was in tears today
Thank you so much Suzie... for everything. I was in tears today, but your articles and coaching sessions on ending the affair really help me. I appreciate the help more than words can express. Thank you!
You are what we are most Thankful for
Hi Suzie, We wish you and yours a beautiful Thanksgiving and Christmas Season! We are Thankful for you helping people like us ... who 'walked into ... pure hell ... and are trying to find our way back to the 'real love and respect' we had for each other. We are making progress... I know we still do love each other. I hope our love can handle all this necessary 'shaking off the dirt' that spit upon us, during his 'affairs-escape-rides'. And so many other affairs I am certain he has had and will not yet or ever admit - Thank you Suzie, for being available to help us find our way back to some sort of peace of mind. You are what we are most Thankful for. Your passion to help others is a gift we all will take with us and be grateful for....no matter what the outcome is. Thank you so much!
I love your site and have found it to be very positive and comforting
I was wondering when the online 30-day courses would be available. Also, when the road to reconciliation was going to come out. I love your site and have found it to be very positive and comforting during this difficult time of my life. Thanks!
I’m 29 days from discovery and NOT under the covers in crying inconsolably
Suzie...I'm just so, so, so grateful for you and the inspired work you do. I'm 29 days from discovery and NOT under the covers in crying inconsolably the fetal position partly owing to your loving and so helpful work. And that you offer a treasure trove of free resources is so loving and generous of you. The 14 questions for betrayed spouse is life-affirming. Thank you for offering the vision of achieving wholeness again and the tools to get there. Rich and abundant blessings to you.
So grateful you recommended the 90-minute session with Suzie
I'm so grateful you recommended the 90-minute session with Suzie. We actually ended up going a little overtime which I really really appreciated. I think I got a lot out of this session. Suzie is magic. Her Wayward Rehab course continues to be very helpful as well. Thank you!! There will be a lot of work and challenges coming up to me in the next months but I am ready to face them. Again I'm very glad I made the choice to consult with Suzie. Please let her know that I'm very grateful for her insight and advice. Hope you guys have a great weekend. (it's labour day weekend up here in Canada)
We would like to upgrade to Marriage Rehab
We would like to upgrade to Marriage Rehab. (please charge our card on file) I am just starting out with the Betrayed Partner recovery course and have only finished the First Aid session. I have also explored Suzie's goasksuzie.com website. Her message of hope and forgiveness for one's own growth, for the wellness of the self and of the family, and, if possible, also salvaging the marriage, is presented in a logical, realistic, and (in my estimation) comprehensive way. This is what lead me to purchase the Betrayed Partner bundle after reading much of what's available on her website. So much of what she says just somehow "rings true" for me and is insightful and logical. She seems to blend respect for the wonder of life with respect for and acknowledgement of the realities of the situations, emotions, etc that I find myself confronting at this time of extreme challenge in my life. She is clear about the things that she believes must be done, and leaves the rest open as the choice of the individual. This instills confidence and trust. I have recognized that forgiveness is central to my recovery from this experience, and have been looking for a...
Your words have given me so much hope
My name is Christine and I've been with my high school sweetheart for nine years. We got pregnant young and have had many challenges since. Both my husband and I come from broken families and have had little to no support with anything at all. I've had no one to turn to for advice. Your words have given me so much hope for the future. I recently told him I wasn't in love with him and feel terrible for it. I know our love is still there. Once again thank you for the work that you do I will continue to read your articles and remind myself who I can become. Thanks so much!
Thank you for helping me make sense of this chaos
Suzie, I honestly don't know what I would have done if I didn't find your site on the internet this past Spring. (slight variation: "You find what you need to know when you need to know it!") Thank you for helping me make sense of this chaos and paste my shattered self back together! Wishing you the Best - Always!
Your advice is so helpful to me
Good morning Suzie! It's funny but by reading so much on your site and going through the Marriage Rehab course, I feel like I already know you, and I want to tell you that your advice is so helpful to me. If not for finding your site I would have not made the progress I have made since finding out about my husbands affair. He feels the same way. Truly, we thank you for all that you do.
Your site is doing a lot more for me to help me heal than the therapist!
Suzie, Thanks so much! Your site is amazing. I went to therapy as well and your site is doing a lot more for me to help me heal than the therapist! Thanks again!
The most effective information I’ve read or listened to – really well done
Another day of lifesaving wisdom from Suzie Johnson Phew!!! The insights contained in Wayward Rehab is the best, smartest, most effective information I've read or listened to - really well done. Thank you so much!! So grateful to have found this resource.
Thanks to Suzie and her unique strategies for surviving infidelity
Hi Suzie & Brad, Yesterday, I also bought the programs Forgiving Infidelity and Releasing Pain and Repairing Trust and Inspiring Honesty in Your Marriage. Thanks to Suzie and her unique strategies for surviving infidelity, my husband and I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. The road we both want to take is clear now - we love each other and are both willing to improve our marriage as well as to grow individually. My husband took the responsibility for his mistakes and is willing to correct them, and I do believe that we will make it. Thank you from the heart for your wonderful site and pages and pages of support - there are no words to describe how invaluable all this has been for both of us.
I appreciate that every session you offer is world class and very helpful
First of all, can I congratulate you and Suzie on a fantastic website and superb tools and resources? They are proving to be a great source of help and support. Secondly, can I also congratulate you on such fantastic customer service? As for the missing Quiet 10 session, it is not a problem for me at all. It really isn’t. It was just that I thought I was having a computer-based issue and not able to access a file that I was led to believe was there. It was only because it was on the product description that I was looking for it. Since there isn’t actually one I can relax as it means I am not going mad or that my computer is not having issues. As for your incredibly generous compensation offer, let me say thank you very much. However, there is no need to make such an offer (though I am very grateful and appreciative that you did make it). I appreciate that every session you offer is world class and very helpful but I wouldn’t dream of expecting such generous compensation over such a trivial matter. It was a minor mistake and it certainly did not...
Healing the Hurt has made a huge impact on my life
Dear Suzie, Thank you so much for all your hard work. I finally finished listening to all of Healing the Hurt last night. This has made a huge impact on my life. Especially the part on "Ego"... wow! Talk about looking in the mirror. Sometimes it's hard to see the real person you are. Positive changes are being made in my life. Again, thank you!
My husband and I worked with Suzie for 8 weeks with a customized program that aimed to facilitate true forgiveness and passion
I believe that nothing that happens in this world is a coincidence. It was by the grace of God that I found Suzie Johnson during one of the most challenging and difficult experiences of my life.

We are doing great since our 3-day weekend intensive with you
Suzie Hi! Just a note to tell you that we are doing great since our 3-day weekend intensive with you. Mark has now much more "awareness" in all fields of his life: Me, Kids, Work and it is a real miracle to see him acting in a new way. Thank you! As for me, I am feeling safer and I am starting finally to relax and enjoy the renewed energy. Words can't tell you what a blessing you were/are to our lives. God Bless you. Missing you tons!
I’ve read her articles countless times
Thank you so much! I've recovered tremendously since I first contacted you and it's been the hardest thing I've ever been through. I've read her articles countless times over the last 3 months and it has helped me so much. Thank you both. I also thank that God sent me to your website for help. Prior to Suzie, the only thing comforting me was prayer. Thank you for what you do.
I promise you that if you talk to Suzie just once, you will have a different opinion about your wife and yourself and your life!
For all of the men out there who have stumbled across these words because you are thinking of having an affair or are in one now, this isn’t just by chance. You are here because you are supposed to be. If you love your wife and yourself and your family like I do, stop and think about what is real in your life and what you really want. It may be that you don’t know right now and that is okay, but I promise you that if you talk to Suzie just once, you will have a different opinion about your wife and yourself and your life! There is a world of things that make us think we have to be like or act like someone or something else but if you are ever going to be a man of independence and know your place in your world, educate yourself and find yourself. You will find honesty and forgiveness in yourself, your wife and even others. The truth is hard but when you live transparently, you are truly a free soul and the best friend and husband. The day my wife learned the truth about my affair was the best...
Suzie is amazing
Suzie is amazing. If she can't get through to someone, I don't think anyone can.
I had an emotional affair with another man
Suzie, This is the most helpful site I found, thank you sooooo much! I had an emotional affair with another man. I feel so alone in this problem because I have to find the way for forgiveness from my husband, and all the information you have is really helping me. God bless you!
We would not be where we are in our relationship without her guidance
My name is Alison and my husband had an affair for 4 months. I was totally devastated and felt my whole world was destroyed. I decided to check the internet for help and found Suzie's website. I loved the fact that just her website that was free, was so very informative. It truly was a wealth of information and answered a lot of questions that I had, and validated feelings that I was having. My husband found it also very helpful for himself. I thought what the heck, I would try one session with Suzie. Well, our phone meeting with Suzie was truly amazing. We were offered 12 week coaching plan and found out about the cost. We decided this was something that would be incredibly helpful in our relationship and that would be priceless. We decided that we wanted to be together and wanted to do whatever it took to have more of Suzie's help. We have completed the 12 weeks and our relationship is in a state that I love. I am grateful for the tools that I have learned to apply to my daily living in every aspect of my life. I have learned to love, be...
Super skeptical
I have to say I'm so glad I found this series. I was super skeptical of the cost and also I'm surprised that I can't find any third-party reviews of the program and website out there on the Internet. As a "modern consumer" I am used to beginning every purchase by first looking at the reviews whether this is on yelp, Amazon, consumer reports or any other verifiable unbiased site. This made it difficult for me to make the initial purchase of the Wayward Rehab online workshop, but since my partner seems to be in agreement about how helpful your site has been for her - I registered for the course and have now gone through the first hour. I'm already impressed - as well as uplifted - by the information contained within. I guess what I'm saying is it would be nice to somehow figure out a way to get some reviews out there. Thank you for creating such a helpful program!
Your website here has been the most beautiful and genuine thought-provoking source of encouragement that I have ever found
Dear Suzie, It has been four years almost to the day since the discovery of my husband's year-long affair and I have experienced some of my darkest, most painful and challenging moments in these past few years. I have felt like no one on earth was able to console me or comfort me which I found to be true... that God was my strength and my joy during these times and still remains. I have made many mistakes in dealing with the aftermath of my husbands affair by attacking him verbally and even physically at times because of my deep feelings of betrayal. We were the "perfect" happy couple with 2 beautiful little boys and a baby girl on her way. We were always deeply in love and I thought if anything else went wrong on this earth, I knew that my marriage would be solid and strong because of the love and commitment we shared as a couple. I was blindsided and felt like I was hit by a Mack truck when I discovered the truth. It has taken me these years of anger, confusion, sadness to find that my true joy in life wasn't really in the trust...
