Thank you for your support!----------In this episode, I talk with Lyschel Burket about something every betrayed spouse needs to think about: what happens if there’s a relapse? We get honest about how deeply destabilizing that can be, especially for wives who have already been through the pain of betrayal and are trying to rebuild a sense of safety.Lyschel helps us understand why a relapse can feel like another trauma. It can knock a wife’s body and mind right back into survival mode, making it hard to think clearly, make decisions, or even know what to do next. That’s why we spend time talking about the value of a relapse safety plan, which is really a practical way to prepare before a crisis hits.We walk through the important pieces of that plan, including how to define the difference between a slip and a relapse, why it matters to think ahead about your physical, emotional, spiritual, financial, and relational needs, and how a plan can actually reduce panic when life feels chaotic. We also talk about the unfairness many wives feel in having to create this kind of plan, and why it still can be an act of wisdom and self-care.At the heart of it all, Lyschel reminds us that a woman’s safety is not ultimately dependent on her husband’s choices. God is the true source of her provision, protection, and hope.To learn more about Lyschel and the resources she offers to wives, visit HopeRedefined.org.Topics Covered in this Episode: Relapse and betrayal trauma.How relapse destabilizes a spouse.Slip vs. relapse.Why a relapse safety plan matters.Preparing before crisis hits.Fire escape plan analogy.Key safety plan categories.Hope and stability in God.More Resources:Relapse Safety Plan WorkshopRedeemed Hope intensiveOnline Wives Care GroupsRelated Podcasts:Helping Wives Restore Hope After Betrayal Trauma in MarriageIdentifying and Meeting Needs in a Betrayed WifeThe Need for Boundaries After Betrayal----------Please rate and review our podcast: Apple and SpotifyFollow us on our Vimeo Channel.
