8: Combating Betrayal Trauma Triggers

After you have been betrayed and hurt by your partner, or anyone for that matter, you may go into "fight, flight, or freeze" whenever you see them. No matter how much you prepared beforehand. After doing recovery work, why does this still happen? And, what can be done about it?

In this episode, Lainey discusses how she learned that it is totally normal to have a heightened and emotional trauma response when confronted with someone who has betrayed you and why this happens. She shares how she has learned to welcome and even thank her body for this gift of protection. She also outlines some strategies of simple processes you can put into place now to not react so strongly when confronted with your betrayer.
