If you’re just finding this blog series, welcome. This is part 2 of a 10-part journey walking through real stories and real steps to move forward after betrayal. You can start at the beginning with Blog 1: Acknowledging the Pain.
You’re not the only one
When you’ve been betrayed, isolation creeps in fast. You might feel like the only one dealing with this, like everyone else has a happy marriage or has already moved on. But behind closed doors, more women than you realize are carrying the same heartbreak.
It’s easy to believe you should be able to handle it on your own. But betrayal shakes you to the core, and trying to keep it all together without support usually makes the hurt last longer.
The truth is, having the right kind of support doesn’t make you weak. It makes you human.
Sarah’s Support
After Sarah faced the truth about Tom’s secret porn use, she tried to fix herself alone. She didn’t want to burden anyone, and honestly, she felt too ashamed to talk about it. But the more she stayed quiet, the heavier it all became.
When Sarah joined my coaching program, she wasn’t sure what to expect. But week after week, she showed up. She listened. She spoke, tentatively at first, and then more freely. And what surprised her the most? The relief of hearing other women say, “Me too.”
Sarah realized she wasn’t alone. She didn’t have to keep all her pain inside. And over time, she expanded to letting others in besides just her life coach, sharing with a trusted friend, opening up to her sister, and allowing herself to be supported, not just strong.
Sandra’s Support
Sandra didn’t have a partner to work through betrayal with, her engagement ended the day she found out the truth. And for a while, she convinced herself that meant she had to handle everything solo.
But the loneliness was unbearable. So she joined an online support group I lead as part of my group coaching program. At first, she kept her camera off. Just listening. But then one day, another woman shared something that hit so close to home, Sandra couldn’t stay silent. She spoke up and cried through the whole thing.
Afterward, the chat filled with encouragement. No one judged her. No one told her to hurry up and move on. They just listened and reminded her: you’re not alone. That moment gave her the courage to start texting a friend back. To go to a yoga class. To feel connected to something again.
You don’t have to figure this out alone
Betrayal trauma is overwhelming. But when you have the right support, a safe space, shared understanding, gentle accountability, it gets easier to breathe again.
That’s exactly what my group coaching program offers. Women like Sarah and Sandra are in this group right now, navigating real heartbreak and finding their footing again. Some are trying to rebuild their marriages. Others, like Sandra, are healing on their own. But all of them are walking this road together.
And you’re invited, too.
