Overcoming Triggers
This mini-course shows you how to quickly overcome triggers caused by sexual betrayal so you can stop the emotional and physical symptoms of fight or flight and stay calm (no matter the situation).
Imagine a day when you're not triggered and feel like you got punched in the gut every time a beautiful woman walks by in yoga pants.
Or when a woman's name pops up on your husband's phone and you don't go into an internal rage.
“When I started working with Tammy, I was carrying a large load of betrayal trauma. That load had silenced my voice, distorted my reality, and resulted in cruel internal dialog and self-trust issues so deep that I had accepted them as part of my identity.
I had spent years in and out of therapy, in which I had seen some growth, but was unsuccessful in resolving these deepest of issues. After working with Tammy, I am finally free! I found my voice. I’m able to trust myself. I have hope and see my value again.
Thank you, Tammy! I am so grateful for your highly skilled understanding, and empathetic approach in helping me resolve these issues! - JC
If you are a wife who's experienced sexual betrayal…
You know that (as a coaching client once said) triggers can bring you to your knees.
They can literally hijack you at any time.
You can go from okay to feeling like you can’t breathe, your heart pounding out of your chest, feeling like you want to punch a wall, to sobbing uncontrollably on the bathroom floor within minutes.
What’s worse than the actual triggers? Feeling powerless and like you can’t control them.
Here’s what you might not know…
Triggers are spotlights on areas that still need healing.
With the right tools and knowledge, you can:
- learn to feel safe again
- calm your brain and your body and feel more at peace
- grieve and become stronger on the other side of betrayal
- rebuild your life (with or without your husband)
You can learn to handle triggers — and take back your life.
3 Reasons Most Women Feel Powerless to Manage Triggers
REASON 01
THEY DON’T UNDERSTAND WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THEIR BRAIN & BODY
When you’ve been betrayed, your mind and body are on high alert.
Because of the trauma, your body seeks to protect itself, so anything that reminds you of the betrayal is interpreted as a perceived threat. Your mind signals your body of danger, and your body responds. It’s a protective mechanism that happens automatically.
But if you don't understand what is happening, it can be hard to know what to do.
REASON 02
THEY BELIEVE THE LIES FROM WELL-MEANING FRIENDS, FAMILY, OR PASTORS WHO DON’T UNDERSTAND BETRAYAL
After experiencing betrayal, you feel alone and helpless. You seek help from friends, family, or church. Their intent may be well-meaning, but if they don’t understand triggers, the messages you receive could do you more harm.
Messages such as…
- you’re just digging up the past
- stop holding a grudge
- just forgive your husband
- if you were healed, you wouldn’t be triggered
These messages are counterproductive to your healing.
REASON 03
THEY HAVEN’T LEARNED THE SKILLS TO CALM THEIR BRAIN AND BODY
Betrayal shatters marriages, but it also shatters your sense of safety. When your body does not feel safe, it can’t heal.
A crucial part of your healing process will be to learn how to calm your brain and body so it can feel safe again. These body-based coping skills can be learned and incorporated into your daily life.
Are you ready to take back your life and stop being controlled by your triggers?
Tammy promised me that there was good life ahead,
and she was right.
“When my partner unceremoniously destroyed the life I viewed as a fairytale, I found myself alone at the bottom of what felt like a gargantuan shit pit. Despite my pleas for help, the one person I always believed would assist me when life turned upside down found the pit that he created too repugnant to even look at.
Thankfully, my journey led me to Tammy, who willingly jumped right in and stayed with me, holding my hand and encouraging me, until I was able to climb to the top and make my way out of that disgusting, gaping hole of misery. She promised me that there was good life ahead, and she was right.” - Anonymous
