Hey Beautiful, I’m Lisa, Warrior of God, Wife, Mom, “Gigi” to 5 really rockin grands and your Christian Trauma Coach. When I married my knight in shining armor, I was certain we were both happily in love. Everyone looked at us as the storybook couple. We were living the dream, or so I thought. Then the unimaginable happened. My world imploded. In an instant, my life, my marriage, my confidence was shattered into a million pieces when I discovered my husband was having an affair. The devastation was beyond words. “How could he do this to me?!” “Why?!” “Was this my fault?” “How will I ever get over this?” The questions swirled chaotically in my head. Meanwhile, my heart wondered if I would ever stop hurting, “Will this pain ever go away?” I felt lost, alone, and confused. I didn’t know where to turn or what to do. But I knew I needed a plan. I’ve been where you are Beautiful. I know the pain and devastation sexual betrayal brings into your life. I know the agony of having the one you love so dearly betray you at the deepest level. But I also know the hope and healing that awaits you. I know just how faithful God is to restore to an even BETTER YOU! The journey from devastation to restoration has not been easy, but God has held my hand, and even carried me at times along the way. He showed me the way to true healing, helped me develop a plan, and I rediscovered the beautiful woman He created me to be. I’ve learned that our pain, though it is great, has a greater purpose. My tragedy is now my triumph. And I have the greatest privilege of offering hope and healing to Christian Women who suffer enormous trauma and loss by the impact of marital betrayal. If you are ready to heal the devastation from betrayal, rebuild trust in yourself and others, learn proven techniques that will help you release the trauma that has you stuck, and rise in confidence as a Beautiful woman of God - this podcast is definitely for you! So, grab your favorite latte or a glass of wine, pull up a chair and focus on yourself for a few minutes. Let’s dive into what it really means to rise up from the ashes of betrayal and loss into a life you desire.

The holidays are tough in and of themselves when you factor in all the added stress of holiday parties, work events, Christmas plays, school holiday events, family get togethers, church, baking, shopping….
I’m exhausted just talking about it.
But when you also factor in betrayal - the added stress and anxiety can put you over the top.
Especially if you’ve just found out about his affair / porn use.
This time of year can be so painful when you look at it through the lens of what used to be or what you thought used to be.
Beautiful, happy, joyful, and celebrated memories become tainted by the betrayal. This leads to you feeling like your holidays are also tainted.
This begins the dread, anger, overwhelmed feelings that you have when you are entering into a season where you believe, "can I really survive the holidays?" "I would rather just skip over them."
Beautiful, I understand. I remember being right where you are. I remember asking myself, "what can I really handle?" I needed a plan to be able to get through a family gathering without feeling ashamed, overwhelmed, or anxious.
So today, I am going to share with you 5 tips to help you move through holiday season and actually THRIVE in the midst of betrayal.
Grab your pen and paper so you don't miss a thing.

I hear it all the time...
My spouse can't get over my infidelity.
My spouse talks about the betrayal all the time.
My spouse is constantly asking me questions about the person I had the affair with. Or about my porn use.
I'm getting so frustrated because they don't seem to be healing at all.
When will they ever just move forward and forget about it?
As the unfaithful spouse, we wish we could wave a magic wand and all this would just go away, but it's not that simple.
When your addiction or affair was found out, you might have breathed a sign of relief, but your spouse was buried under the rubble of deceit, lies, infidelity, and the reality that things were not as they seemed. Their journey of healing is just beginning and it takes quite a while to heal from the trauma of betrayal.
So how can you work on your own recovery without getting frustrated with them as they work through theirs and how can you support them in the process?
Today, I'm going to share 7 ways you can S-U-P-P-O-R-T your spouse as they heal from betrayal trauma.
You will be able to navigate their triggers and trauma responses in a better way, all while supporting them in their healing journey.
Grab a pen a paper. This episode is full of value!
I pray it blesses you.

I am asked quite often, "Lisa, why did you give your husband another chance after his affair? Many times people will look from the outside in and think you are crazy for doing this. I use to be one of them. Until it happened to me.
Until you actually experience betrayal, you don't really know how you will react. For many, it's one and done. But for others, it's a hard road to recovery, restoration, and redemption that they choose.
That's what I chose.
I chose the hard path. Am I'm so glad I did.
Today, it's our 10th wedding anniversary and we are celebrating the miracle God has done in both of our lives, individually and as a couple. We are celebrating by renewing our vows. Why you ask? It's an outward expression of our new relationship, our new marriage.
When betrayal hits, the old marriage is gone, dead, buried underneath the devastation of betrayal. You cannot expect to rebuild something that has been destroyed, but you can create something far more beautiful. And that's what we did.
Today, I share a short timeline story of the betrayal, why I chose to give it a last shot, and how we have been redeemed.
I pray this blesses you,
XO Lisa

Your spouse betrayed you - had an affair or has been hiding pornography use. You discovered it ALL and are now left in a storm of chaos, confusion, pain, and devastation. You want to save the relationship but your spouse is refusing to do anything to help. They want to brush it under the rug, move on, not talk about it. They don't understand how you are still reeling over it, sad all the time, can't trust, and want to rehash the details over and over.
They don't understand the impact of betrayal trauma. They don't understand what they really have done to you, to the relationship, to themselves.
What do you do when they just won't move forward, when they refuse to go to counseling, coaching, get into a support group, find accountability and begin the healing process?
You have a few options and we are going to bring them into truth on today's episode.
It's a hard situation to be in, and only you can make the choice you need to make that's right for you.
I want to help you with your options.
I pray you will listen and share this with your spouse.
Blessings,
Lisa

I had a question come in from one of my clients this week:
"My husband is frustrated because he things I should be further along healing from his affair. Now I am questioning myself. Am I doing something wrong?"
Healing from betrayal, trauma takes time. And it’s not the same timeline for everyone. You are unique, and your healing journey is also unique.
This can be extremely frustrating for the betrayer if they feel you are not progressing as quickly as they would like.
This comes from a lack of understanding of where you are in your healing journey, how the betrayal has affected you, and what you are actually healing from.
In today’s podcast, I am answering this question in detail.
I pray this will open up conversations and help both the betrayed and the betrayer.

Have you received a true apology after his betrayal?
Did he just say, "I'm sorry."
Or, "I'm sorry for the affair." "I'm sorry for the pornography use."
Or, "I'm sorry for having an affair but you didn't give me enough attention in our marriage."
Beautiful, if you have received any of these "apologies", you really didn't receive a true apology.
In today's episode, I am ripping apart the "gloss over" apology and giving you the truth about what a true apology consists of after betrayal.
We will look at:
What an apology is not
What are the components of a true apology
Examples of a true apology
What is the "greater" apology after betrayal, what it consists of
Examples of a "greater" apology.
And what to do if you haven't received the apology you deserve.
I pray this blesses you and begins the necessary conversations that will lead to the apology you desire and deserve.
XO, Lisa
