Healing with WORTH

Healing Through Grief: Understanding Grief in the Betrayal Trauma Journey


Listen Later

In this episode of Healing with Worth, hosts Janine and Naomi delve

into the profound topic of grief, particularly as it relates to healing from
betrayal trauma. They discuss how grief manifests in different stages,
especially following a "D-Day"—a moment of shocking revelation about
a spouse’s betrayal. They emphasize the immense loss one feels, not only of trust
in a partner but also in oneself, others, and even in God. Janine and Naomi
outline the grief process using the well-known stages identified by Elizabeth
Kübler-Ross, including denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance.
They highlight that these stages are not linear and often overlap, with
emotions like anger often masking deeper feelings of sadness and fear.

The hosts stress the importance of connection in healing, warning against

isolation, which can hinder the recovery process. They also introduce the idea
that betrayal trauma is a form of emotional abuse, intensifying the grief and
complexity of healing. As the episode closes, Janine and Naomi hint at
exploring additional aspects of the grief cycle, such as shock and obsession,
in future episodes. They encourage listeners to acknowledge their grief,
embrace the healing journey, and take the necessary steps to move forward,
however gradual they may be.
