  • The Hoover: Repentance Vs. Repentance of the "Dammed" [Liz and Matt - Part 2]

    In this episode of Room for Two, Dr. Finlayson Fife works with Liz to get a better understanding of if Liz has genuinely had a change of heart and is wanting to move forward differently or if she is simply scrambling to get the marriage back to the status quo. Dr. Jennifer uses the concepts of "repentance" and "repentance of the damned" to illustrate the distinction between genuine change and simply trying to produce a desired outcome. For Liz, true repentance would mean acknowledging the impact of her past behavior and daring to love Matt, even without the guarantee of her love being reciprocated.
