In this episode we explore how past betrayal trauma affects your current relationships, even with good men who are doing everything right.

 

We discuss the self-sabotaging behaviors many of us develop as protection mechanisms—checking phones, creating loyalty tests, keeping escape plans—and why these patterns keep us trapped in a cycle of distrust.

 

I share Monica's story, a woman who ended a healthy relationship because she couldn't accept that someone could be genuinely transparent, and I give you a practical vulnerability exercise you can start today.

 

If you've experienced betrayal in the past and feel like you can't let your guard down with someone new, this episode will help you understand why—and how to begin healing.
