Betrayal Blindness and Anger: Why You Didn’t See It Coming—and How God Brings Clarity | E290
Description
Ever wonder why you didn’t see the betrayal coming—or why you feel so angry now that you know the truth?
In today's episode of Beauty Beyond Betrayal, we’re diving deep into betrayal blindness—a term developed by Dr. Jennifer Freyd as part of Betrayal Trauma Theory. You’ll discover how this unconscious survival mechanism causes many women to “not know” what’s happening right in front of them when infidelity or deception is taking place.
Lisa unpacks:
💔 What betrayal blindness really is and why it’s not simple denial, but a complex psychological and spiritual adaptation.
🔥 Why anger after infidelity feels so explosive—and how it’s connected to years of suppressed pain, lost intuition, and shattered trust.
🧠 What the latest trauma research says about the brain’s “freeze” and “fight” responses after betrayal.
🙏 How to move from suppressed pain to empowered clarity through God’s truth and grace.
You’ll also hear practical, biblical steps to help you:
✨ Rewire false beliefs that kept you in emotional denial.
✨ Validate your righteous anger and process it in a healthy, God-honoring way.
✨ Begin trusting your intuition again as you rebuild your sense of safety and identity.
If you’re ready to stop blaming yourself, see the truth clearly, and walk in freedom, this episode will help you take your next step toward healing.
