Ep 38. Somatic Safety Session: Coming Home to Yourself

Ep 43. Disclosure vs. Discovery: Why the Way Truth Comes Out Matters

In this episode, Carrie and David explore the powerful difference between disclosure and discovery in betrayal trauma recovery. They unpack why trickle truth, partial disclosures, and ongoing deception can be just as damaging... and sometimes more damaging... than the original betrayal itself.  They discuss how secrecy impacts trust, why the body often knows something is wrong before the mind can explain it, and what happens when a relationship is built on incomplete information. Whether you're the betrayed partner questioning if you have the whole truth or the person who caused harm and is struggling with fear, shame, and honesty, this conversation offers clarity, compassion, and hope for what real healing requires.   Connect with Carrie: 📲 Instagram: @healwithcarriejean [https://www.instagram.com/healwithcarriejean/] 🌿Resiliently Rising Circle: https://www.resilientlyrising.com/circle [https://www.resilientlyrising.com/circle] ✨ Coaching: https://www.resilientlyrising.com/1-1-coaching [https://www.resilientlyrising.com/1-1-coaching] 💛 Rebuilding Us: Nervous System Based Path to Healing Together After Betrayal - https://www.resilientlyrising.com/rebuildingus [https://www.resilientlyrising.com/rebuildingus] 🌀 Reclaiming Safety: Healing Nervous System After Betrayal Course – https://www.resilientlyrising.com/reclaimingsafety [https://www.resilientlyrising.com/reclaimingsafety] 🙋‍♀️ ‘What You’re Wondering’ Q&A Submissions: https://forms.gle/MmwTxso6rJH4uuPN8 [https://forms.gle/MmwTxso6rJH4uuPN8] 🔅 I was just betrayed... what now?

Ep 42. Somatic Safety Session: Your Body Knows Before Your Brain Does

In this episode, we slow down and explore that moment where your body knows before your mind catches up. We talk about how your nervous system is constantly reading for safety, how it communicates through sensation and reaction, and why those early signals are often more honest than the story your mind tries to build afterward. You’ll begin to understand how to recognize those subtle cues instead of overriding them or second-guessing them. And most importantly, how to start building trust with your own internal signals again—so you can move through life with more clarity, steadiness, and self-trust, even in moments that feel uncertain or overwhelming.   Connect with Carrie: 📲 Instagram: @healwithcarriejean [https://www.instagram.com/healwithcarriejean/] 🌿Resiliently Rising Circle: https://www.resilientlyrising.com/circle [https://www.resilientlyrising.com/circle] ✨ Coaching: https://www.resilientlyrising.com/1-1-coaching [https://www.resilientlyrising.com/1-1-coaching] 💛 Rebuilding Us: Nervous System Based Path to Healing Together After Betrayal - https://www.resilientlyrising.com/rebuildingus [https://www.resilientlyrising.com/rebuildingus] 🌀 Reclaiming Safety: Healing Nervous System After Betrayal Course – https://www.resilientlyrising.com/reclaimingsafety [https://www.resilientlyrising.com/reclaimingsafety] 🙋‍♀️ ‘What You’re Wondering’ Q&A Submissions: https://forms.gle/MmwTxso6rJH4uuPN8 [https://forms.gle/MmwTxso6rJH4uuPN8] 🔅 I was just betrayed... what now?

Ep 41. WYW: "Since the Betrayal, I've Lost Myself. How Do I Get Me Back?"

In this episode, we’re talking about the painful experience of feeling like you’ve lost yourself after betrayal. We explore how betrayal trauma impacts the nervous system, why survival mode can disconnect you from your own identity, and how healing often begins through small moments of reconnecting with your preferences, needs, and inner voice. If you’ve ever thought, “I don’t even feel like me anymore,” this conversation is meant to remind you that you are not broken… and that your way back to yourself is possible.  Connect with Carrie: Mental Health Bundle [https://www.thementalhealthbundle.com/tr/2/6914381/13593031702/31876817/260002759d1f600d4e3a9deeb4524612f89fdc974] 📲 Instagram: @healwithcarriejean [https://www.instagram.com/healwithcarriejean/] 🌿Resiliently Rising Circle: https://www.resilientlyrising.com/circle [https://www.resilientlyrising.com/circle] ✨ Coaching: https://www.resilientlyrising.com/1-1-coaching [https://www.resilientlyrising.com/1-1-coaching] 💛 Rebuilding Us: Nervous System Based Path to Healing Together After Betrayal - https://www.resilientlyrising.com/rebuildingus [https://www.resilientlyrising.com/rebuildingus] 🌀 Reclaiming Safety: Healing Nervous System After Betrayal Course – https://www.resilientlyrising.com/reclaimingsafety [https://www.resilientlyrising.com/reclaimingsafety] 🙋‍♀️ ‘What You’re Wondering’ Q&A Submissions: https://forms.gle/MmwTxso6rJH4uuPN8 [https://forms.gle/MmwTxso6rJH4uuPN8] 🔅 I was just betrayed... what now?

Ep 39. Fight Right: What the Gottmans Want You to Know About Conflict

In this episode, Carrie and David break down why so many relationship conflicts—especially after betrayal—feel like they go nowhere and leave both partners more hurt. Drawing from the Gottmans’ Fight Right, they explain how conflict itself isn’t the problem… it’s how we handle it that determines whether it builds connection or creates more damage. They unpack what happens in the body during an argument, including “flooding”… when the nervous system goes into survival mode and real communication becomes impossible. They also explore the difference between solvable and perpetual problems, why most relationship conflicts never fully “go away,” and how trying to win those arguments often keeps couples stuck. This episode offers practical, compassionate guidance on recognizing your own triggers, taking effective pauses, and learning to approach conflict with more awareness and intention… so you can stop fighting against each other and start understanding what’s really underneath.   Connect with Carrie: 📲 Instagram: @healwithcarriejean [https://www.instagram.com/healwithcarriejean/] 🌿Resiliently Rising Circle: https://www.resilientlyrising.com/circle [https://www.resilientlyrising.com/circle] ✨ Coaching: https://www.resilientlyrising.com/1-1-coaching [https://www.resilientlyrising.com/1-1-coaching] 💛 Rebuilding Us: Nervous System Based Path to Healing Together After Betrayal - https://www.resilientlyrising.com/rebuildingus [https://www.resilientlyrising.com/rebuildingus] 🌀 Reclaiming Safety: Healing Nervous System After Betrayal Course – https://www.resilientlyrising.com/reclaimingsafety [https://www.resilientlyrising.com/reclaimingsafety] 🙋‍♀️ ‘What You’re Wondering’ Q&A Submissions: https://forms.gle/MmwTxso6rJH4uuPN8 [https://forms.gle/MmwTxso6rJH4uuPN8] 🔅 I was just betrayed... what now?
