<p data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><em>Kevin Leaves</em> is a four-part series built from three years of recorded conversations with a man who walked away from his marriage and children to pursue a relationship that began as an affair. In this first episode, <em>The First Few Months</em>, we step into the early aftermath of that decision: the shockwaves, the doubts, and the small daily moments that reveal what leaving actually costs.</p><p class="" data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">These early conversations follow Kevin as he moves out of the family home and tries to stay connected to his children while preparing to relocate for a new job and a new life with his affair partner. We hear the tension with his wife, the awkward and painful transitions with his kids, and the unexpected strain that begins surfacing in his new relationship. Kevin talks about longing and hope, but also about shame—the kind that rises quietly after the adrenaline fades.</p><p class="" data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">This episode doesn’t excuse or condemn.
