When betrayal hits—especially in the context of ministry—it can feel like your world has exploded. In this episode, we talk about what it means to enter survival mode after a personal or spiritual fallout. Whether you're still in shock or just trying to breathe through the day, you're not alone.

We’ll explore the emotional, spiritual, and even physical responses to trauma and how they show up in real life when you don't quite know what to do with your pain. You’ll hear gentle encouragement, relatable truths, and anchoring Scriptures to remind you: surviving is not failure. It’s the first brave step toward healing.
