Choosing to Stay

#129- Can We Dream Again? Finding New Hopes After Betrayal


Listen Later

After betrayal, the future can feel like it’s been stolen. For the betrayed partner, dreams may feel shattered or unsafe to hold. For the one seeking recovery, hope for the future may be tangled with guilt, fear, or the pressure to “make things right.”

In this episode, we’ll talk about what it means to truly process grief, why timing matters, and how both partners can begin to cautiously, safely, and authentically dream again.

You’ll discover:

  • Why trauma makes future-thinking feel dangerous.

  • How the betrayed partner and the one seeking recovery experience hopes differently.

  • Signs you may be ready to imagine new possibilities.
