Summary
Betrayal can affect your entire life - work, health, and even your relationships. In a previous episode, I explored how to heal from betrayal in your relationship. This episode focuses on how to heal from betrayal within yourself. Joining me to discuss post betrayal syndrome and post betrayal transformation is Dr. Debi Silber.
Dr. Debi Silber is the founder of the PBT (Post Betrayal Transformation) Institute and is a holistic psychologist, health, mindset, and personal development expert, the author of Trust Again, and is a 2-time #1 International bestselling author of The Unshakable Woman and From Hardened to Healed: The Effortless Path to Release Resistance, Get Unstuck and Create a Life You Love.
You've heard it before, "Time heals all wounds." But, Dr. Debi Silber has proof that this is not true. It doesn't matter if your betrayal happened decades ago, you can still experience Post Betrayal Syndrome today.
However, if you are willing to do the work, you can move through all five stages of healing in order to get to post betrayal transformation and experience freedom on the other side.

| 0:17.7 | I'm Kate Anthony, your divorce survival guide, and I'm here to help you navigate |
| 0:22.8 | some of the roughest waters you've ever swum in and answer some of your toughest questions. |

| 0:42.8 | Hey, everyone. Welcome back. We have a really great show today with Dr. Debbie Silber. |
| 0:48.5 | We're going to be talking about post-betrayal syndrome and post-betrayal transformation. |
| 0:58.0 | And before we get to that, though, I want to tell you a little something, something, something that we are cooking up here at the |
| 1:03.7 | divorce survival guide. We know that many women can't separate. They worry about separation |
| 1:09.2 | and divorce because of money concerns. |
| 1:12.9 | I recently asked in my community why those who haven't enrolled in my program haven't done so, |
| 1:19.4 | and the overwhelming response was money. That was kind of separate. I was just really curious |
| 1:25.0 | to pull the community. But that kind of rose to the top. |

| 1:35.7 | She's the author of Worth It, Your Life, Your Money, Your Terms, and former owner and creator of |
| 1:41.9 | the Daily Worth. And so she came to me and she says, look, I want to understand |
| 1:45.3 | this dynamic more in depth. I want to create some content, some programming, something for the |
| 1:53.9 | women who feel like finances are the reason that they have to stay in an unhealthy, unhappy, or even abusive marriage. |
| 2:05.7 | And so Amanda and I are partnering together to create programs, content, free resources, |
| 2:15.1 | everything that you might need in order to move yourself forward, |
| 2:21.5 | right? In order to do that, Amanda created a survey. Now, so far, I think over 300 people |
