Betrayal hits hard. Whether from a loved one, a colleague, or a friend, the pain can feel like a deep wound that never fully heals. But what if there was a clear, predictable way to heal from betrayal? In this episode, I am joined by Dr. Debi Silber whose groundbreaking research has uncovered the specific steps to move past betrayal and rebuild your life from the ground up.

Dr. Debi Silber, Founder of the PBT (Post Betrayal Transformation) Institute and National Forgiveness Day (celebrated annually on September 1st), is an award winning speaker, and a 2-time #1 International bestselling author. Her podcast: From Betrayal to Breakthrough is also globally ranked within the top 1.5% of podcasts.
