Send Me Questions on Attachment

Could betrayal trauma be silently shaping your relationships? Join us for an enlightening episode featuring Kendra King, a respected expert in betrayal trauma and affair recovery. With over ten years of experience in mental health, Kendra shares her profound insights into the complex emotions and challenges that arise from betrayal in romantic relationships. Drawing from her extensive work at the Healing Heart Center, she sheds light on the intricate layers of betrayal trauma, which extend far beyond infidelity and include emotional betrayals such as withholding feelings or engaging in intimate conversations outside the partnership.

We explore the symptoms and triggers of betrayal trauma, highlighting the nuanced ways stress can lead individuals to unhealthy behaviors when they lack coping mechanisms. The conversation emphasizes the critical role of open communication and emotional safety as protective measures against betrayal. Kendra's inclusive approach makes her insights accessible to individuals of diverse faith backgrounds, breaking through the shame often surrounding these topics, especially within Christian communities. By understanding personal boundaries and perceptions, couples can navigate the risks of betrayal and strengthen their connections.

As we journey through the emotional aftermath of betrayal, we tackle the realities of PTSD, hypervigilance, and erosion of trust. Kendra underscores the importance of both partners confronting their emotional responses rather than concealing pain or expecting one person to resolve the issue alone. Through personal accountability, vulnerability, and therapy, individuals are encouraged to engage in self-reflection and growth. By embracing these principles, Kendra reveals how individuals can transform their actions and nurture healthier, more resilient relationships.
