THE INTENSIVE FOR BETRAYED WOMEN

What You’ll Learn

This intensive cuts through shame and isolation to address the real damage that betrayal inflicts on your mind, body, and spirit, covering the following topics:

  • The sexual addiction cycle and why understanding it changes everything
  • How trauma rewires your brain and why you can’t just “get over it”
  • Tools for establishing healthy boundaries and rebuilding trust
  • The difference between forgiveness and reconciliation
  • Practical strategies for managing emotional overwhelm
  • Creating a recovery plan centered on your healing

HEALING AFTER INFIDELITY FOR WOMEN

Who It’s For

The Restore intensive brings together women who understand that desperate desire to move forward but not knowing how. You should attend if you are:

  • Drowning in shame that isn’t even yours to carry
  • Tired of feeling crazy, insecure, or not good enough
  • Questioning everything you thought you knew about yourself and your relationship
  • Struggling with triggers that make normal life feel impossible
  • Ready to stop making his recovery your responsibility
  • Wanting to heal—even if the relationship cannot

RECLAIMING YOUR SELF-WORTH & IDENTITY

Why You Should Join

Without intervention, betrayal trauma erodes relationships, your ability to trust yourself, and your faith that God has a good plan for your life. This intensive provides what isolation cannot: clarity, tools, and the fierce support of women who refuse to let you settle for mere survival.
