Betrayal shatters more than a relationship. It shatters the way you see yourself, your faith in yourself and your trust in the world. Isis Jade opens up, raw and honest, about the eleven-year betrayal that broke her heart three times over, and about healing she is still living right now.
This episode is a gentle, trauma-informed guide for coming home to yourself. You learn why cocooning is sacred, why you still reach for the one who hurt you, why your anger and rage hold deep purpose, and how to reclaim your power one minute of delight at a time. Then Isis guides you through calling your power back and the letters ritual.
In this episode:
- Cocooning: why pulling inward lets your wounds knit, and how you outgrow the chrysalis
- Phoenix Rising: rising from the ashes of betrayal
- Reclamation is a spiral, just like delight
- Betrayal trauma, and the support that brings you home: NLP, hypnotherapy, TMS, TRE, qigong and dance
- Nourishing your nervous system: baths, weighted blankets, aromatherapy and gentle care
- Sealed with gold: deep, gentle self-love
- The trauma bond, explained with compassion
- The sacred place of anger and rage
- Minutes of delight, clearing the reminders and refocusing the rumination loop
- Calling your power back, guided, and the letters ritual
Calling Your Power Back (5 minutes)
Driving? Listen now and practice at home.
- Lie down somewhere soft. Place your dominant hand over your heart and your other hand over your lower abdomen.
- Breathe in for four, hold for four, breathe out for four. Repeat three times, then breathe naturally with your eyes closed.
- Picture yourself standing in a field of light. Let it feel safe. Let it feel like home.
- Picture every place you left pieces of yourself: the home you shared, the years you gave, the plans you made, the parts of you that went quiet to keep the peace.
- See a golden thread of light running from your heart to each of those places.
- Say out loud: “I call my power back. I call back my joy. I call back my trust. I call back my voice. I call back my laughter. I call back every piece of me, cleansed, cleared, renewed and home to me now.”
- Watch every golden thread spiral home to you, each one carrying a glowing piece of your heart. Soften your belly and deepen your breath.
- Declare: “I am coming home to myself. I honor my grief. I honor my anger. I honor my rage. I honor my healing. From this minute forward, I choose what delights me, one day at a time.” Breathe it into every cell, then gently come back.
The Letters Ritual (later this week)
- Write letters to each person who betrayed you, as many as you need. Every word: the rage, the grief, the questions, the truth. These letters are for you alone. Raging into an audio recording and printing the transcript is a beautiful option too.
- Print the messages, emails and love letters that still burn.
- Outside, in a fireproof bowl or cauldron, read each one once. Say: “I release this now. Thank you for the lesson. I call my power back home to me.” Then burn it. Go one at a time, one day at a time, at the pace your heart sets.
- Gather the ashes in a jar of water with your favorite oil, herbs or tea. Take it to flowing water, a river, stream or lake, and say: “Everything I gave away comes back to me tenfold.” Offer it to the water and watch it flow away.
- Then go do something that delights you right away: a bath, a favorite meal, a dance, a little ice cream.
Your assignment: collect five minutes of delight every day and write each one down. Every time the loop starts, refocus with one small physical delight.
