These two words get tangled together all the time.

But they are not the same.
And confusing them keeps people stuck for years.

Guilt says: “I did something wrong.”

It points to behavior.
It invites ownership.
It opens the door to repentance, repair, and growth.

Healthy guilt can actually be a gift. It nudges us back toward integrity. It says, “This isn’t who you want to be.”

But shame is different.

Shame says: “I am something wrong.”

It doesn’t focus on behavior. It attacks identity.
It whispers that you are fundamentally flawed. Unworthy. Beyond

If this hit home, the full conversation is on the podcast.
It goes deeper into how shame keeps you stuck — and how to move toward freedom.

Tomorrow is the start to something New!

Wednesday 2/25/26:1 pm EST to 2 PM EST- A Betrayal Group that is flexible, affordable, and one that you can join when you can (No commitment beyond session-by-session!) , off-camera!

I am hoping this removes barriers for women who need connection, but also needs flexibility, and regular times to meet!

The cost is low ($20 per drop in group). Sign-up as early as just before the group starts- join once- join every week- whatever is best for you!

Sign up and pay with this link! https://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0/appointments/schedules/AcZssZ0VO4cPoewdKVPu-XcXkFB7I5U1Tey4X30cbZX5xFs_kdt8EEys25fXMALEmTR3DBVMtaSUKrFA

(You will get the Google Meet Link after signing up!)

*I will have my headphones in and off camera, & will be walking while connecting with the ladies who join to get fresh air, movement, and take a break from screen!

Can I tell you something that might finally make sense of what you're feeling?

You can be completely safe — physically secure, away from harm, with no immediate threat — and still not FEEL safe at all.

And that's not a character flaw.
It's not a lack of faith.
It's not you "choosing" to stay stuck.
It's what betrayal trauma does to your nervous system.

I just started a 3-part blog series, and Part 1 breaks down:
- The 3 types of safety betrayal destroys (all at once)
- What's happening in your brain when you feel unsafe
- The difference between BEING safe and FEELING safe
- Why "just trust God" isn't enough (and that's okay)

Understanding what was happening in my own body after betrayal changed everything for me.

I hope this series does the same for you.

And if you need a safe community to process this with — my new drop-in weekly group starts February 25th. Link> https://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0/appointments/schedules/AcZssZ0VO4cPoewdKVPu-XcXkFB7I5U1Tey4X30cbZX5xFs_kdt8EEys25fXMALEmTR3DBVMtaSUKrFA

Just as an addict cannot "just stop" through willpower alone...

We cannot expect a betrayal trauma survivor to simply decide to stop the hypervigilance, intrusive thoughts, and fear.

Your brain is doing exactly what it was designed to do in the face of a threat.

The goal isn't to fight your nervous system. The goal is to help it feel SAFE again.

That takes the right support. The right timing. A community that understands. Trauma-informed tools — not just prayer, but brainspotting, somatic work, nervous system regulation.

This is what our group support is built for.

You don't have to heal alone. And you don't have to rush.

People ask me why I stayed.

This is why.

Not because it was easy. Not because I wasn't justified in leaving.

Because I believed God wasn't done with us yet.

He is now 8 years sober. Still standing. Still healing. Still grateful.

This is what it looks like when two broken people do the work.

If you want to hear the full story — the raw, real, nothing-held-back version — Derek and I share our testimony on The War On Love podcast.

I wrote Part 2 of my addiction/trauma series for you.

Because here's what I've learned — personally and professionally:

His brain was hijacked by addiction.
Your brain was hijacked by trauma.

Neither is a character flaw.
Neither can be willpowered away.
And neither had anything to do with your worth.

Understanding this doesn't excuse what he did.
It doesn't level the playing field.
It doesn't mean you stay or forgive before you're ready.

It just gives you clarity.

And clarity can loosen the grip of the questions keeping you up at night.

RITE Men's Group
2 Spots Left
Keep reading.. If conflict makes your husband shut down, avoid, or go quiet. That doesn’t automatically mean he doesn’t care.

Often, it means:
• avoidance is an attachment pattern
• his nervous system learned silence = safety
• this started long before your marriage

That doesn’t excuse the harm.
But it does explain the pattern.

This group helps men learn how to:
• stay present without flooding
• remain engaged without self-protection
• move toward secure attachment — not perfection
Healing doesn’t mean becoming someone else.
It means becoming secure.
This group teaches how to stay present instead of disappearing.

In today’s blog, I share a personal moment that forever shifted my understanding of addiction — and softened a layer of anger I didn’t even realize I was carrying.

In this post, I explore:

- why addiction and acute trauma activate surprisingly similar survival responses
- how compulsive behaviors, hypervigilance, and obsessive thinking are nervous-system driven
- why willpower alone cannot heal either addiction or trauma
- how understanding these parallels can reduce shame and open the door to real healing

After a decade of saying I was an “addict” or “alcoholic” I started cringing -

I was sober and God was helping me step into the Identity He said I was! Yes I was addicted - and no- I cannot drink or use a substance again… but I am an Overcomer and that feels right! That feels true!

There is life and death in the power of the tongue!
I have not “graduated” from the need for recovery that continued until I die - I still attend meetings after almost 20 years of sobriety - but I’m not “a problem”! I’m free from the grip of addiction!! ❤️‍🩹🙌🏼🔥✝️
