    So…in an episode about trauma when the man is betrayed…all Judith could to was focus on making excuses for the cheating woman, ironically proving the isolation men feel when they are betrayed. Such a tone-deaf episode. I don’t need to hear any more.

  • Great Content

    Great listen, but I wonder why all of the focus is with the female as the partner. I believe APSATS is missing a very strong population of us men that are the partner. Thanks again for a great podcast!

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Recognizing Sexual Abuse While Being Sexually Betrayed | Dr. Crystal Hollenbeck & Tiffany Comiskey
Q: What should a listener do if they suspect they're experiencing abuse?
Do personal research using multiple trusted resources to validate information, tell someone you trust about what's happening, and start setting boundaries with professional support to stay safe.
Recognizing Sexual Abuse While Being Sexually Betrayed | Dr. Crystal Hollenbeck & Tiffany Comiskey
Q: Can you define sexual betrayal and sexual abuse for us to align on terms?
Sexual abuse is abusive sexual behavior often involving coercion or exploitation; sexual betrayal is violation of sexual and emotional boundaries within a committed relationship through secret acts like infidelity, hidden pornography, or compelled sexual acts, with consequences like loss of informed consent.
Male Betrayal Trauma | What’s The Next Step For Men Who Get Cheated on?
Q: Judith, what is the inner experience of a woman who has betrayed or been betrayed?
The female betrayer faces both the partner's betrayal and her own moral injury, leading to confusion and isolation; healing involves acknowledging truth, being witnessed, and reclaiming voice and autonomy.
Male Betrayal Trauma | What’s The Next Step For Men Who Get Cheated on?
Q: Adam, how does betrayal often hit men differently?
Men commonly experience an ego wound and anger, with pressure from society to suppress anger; healing involves acknowledging anger, learning to express it healthily, and creating safe spaces for it.
How Betrayal Trauma Changed Everything: The Story Behind APSATS with Barb Steffens
Q: Can you describe the three-phase model and its practical impact?
The three phases—safety and stability, remembrance and mourning, and post-traumatic growth—provide a structured pathway that helps partners feel safe, process the trauma, and ultimately rebuild and redefine their relationships.
