Why don’t you and your partner agree on “what really happened”? In early recovery, trauma, shame, and denial collide — creating two completely different versions of reality that both feel true.
Luke explains:
• Trauma logic & worst-case thinking
• Denial fog & fragmented memory
• Why accuracy evolves in recovery
• How to validate without agreeing
• The 3-part integrity check that rebuilds trust
Tune in for a grounded, compassionate episode for couples healing from betrayal.
