Summary

Education is power and that power can be found by learning about Betrayal Trauma while recovering from addiction.  Understanding what it is can help during intense moments when the partner is triggered and goes into trauma.  Listen to Coby's experience as he learned to identify when Ashlylnn was triggered and what he did to deal with it.  

We are glad you found our season 3 episodes where we share some of our most advanced learnings when it comes to relationships, and the challenges of healing both sides of the relationship after sex addiction and infidelity. 

Our journey has taken us a long ways from the time we recorded these episodes, but many have still found help and hope for healing in the information.  

We hope you always seek healing first for yourself, and where possible for the relationship, though staying together or choosing divorce or separation can occur at the point of betrayal and at times even after healing from betrayal and addictions.

If you would like support in healing from betrayal we’d invite you to look at our program https://www.beyond-enough.com/beyondbetrayal

It is not a program about staying together or leaving your partner, but rather finding the healing we need as an individual who has been made aware of our partner cheating.

If you would like support from a licensed therapist contact Brannon’s office at www.utahtherapy.org
