Velvet's Edge with Kelly Henderson

Can You Be Attracted to Other People and Still Be Happy in Your Relationship? (The Edge)

After this week's conversation with psychologist Dr. Glenn Hutchinson about the science and psychology of infidelity, Kelly and Chip sat down to discuss the ideas that surprised them most. From attraction and sexual fantasy to trust and betrayal, they explore some of the gray areas that often get overlooked in conversations about relationships. Should partners openly discuss who they find attractive? Is sexuality as black and white as we tend to make it? And how do you move forward in a healthy way after experiencing betrayal in a past relationship? As always, Kelly and Chip share their own perspectives, experiences, and questions while trying to make sense of the complicated—and very human—side of relationships. Watch us on YouTube!

Why Do People Cheat? The Hidden Psychology of Infidelity with Dr. Glenn Hutchinson (The Velvet)

Why do people cheat? Is infidelity really about unmet needs and unhappy relationships, or is the answer more complicated than we’ve been led to believe? This week, Kelly sits down with clinical psychologist and behavioral researcher Dr. Glenn Hutchinson, author of Unfaithful Minds, to explore the hidden psychological processes behind infidelity. Together, they unpack some of the biggest myths society tells us about cheating, why even intelligent and self-aware people can act against their own values, and what modern psychology reveals about the gap between our intentions and our actions. Kelly and Dr. Hutchinson discuss the role of the unconscious mind, the brain’s reward and novelty-seeking systems, why some people may be more vulnerable to infidelity than others, and whether understanding these patterns can actually help prevent betrayal before it happens.

For anyone with a family history of Alzheimer's—as Kelly does—this conversation offers both practical information and hope. From nutrition and exercise to sleep and early awareness, Dr. Lewis provides actionable ways to support your brain health at every stage of life.
