In this Patreon bonus episode I delve into betrayal trauma, a concept I recently discovered that deeply resonates with me. Drawing from Brene’ Brown's book 'Atlas of the Heart' and insights from Dr. Ramini, I explore the profound impact of betrayal from trusted individuals and institutions. I discuss the symptoms and emotional toll of betrayal, including feelings of depression, anxiety, and shame. I highlight the specific betrayal experienced within high-control religious environments and abusive familial settings and reference the institutional betrayal exemplified by the cover-up culture at Bob Jones University, as detailed in the Grace Report. I emphasize the devastating consequences of these betrayals and share insights on healing.
