Free Training for Partners Who Have Tried All the Relationship Advice 

 

......but are still running in circles, feeling more frustrated and disconnected than ever while navigating a relationship with a childhood trauma survivor. Discover the real tactics and strategies that can help you reclaim your peace and happiness.

In every relationship, we crave stability, predictability, and connection.

 

However, when in a relationship with  someone with unresolved trauma from their childhood, it can seem like you are in a field of landmines where you can't figure out what will upset your partner.  

 It's like you're going along and everything seems to be going great. Then out of the blue, your partner is upset with you, and you have no idea what you did to cause that outburst of emotion or what you can do to make it stop. You want your partner to be happy, but you seem to always hit a wall.  

 No matter what you try, he still continues to have responses that seem way out of context, and that are difficult for you to understand. And what's worse, the more you try to make things better, you feel more and more discouraged. Ultimately, feeling really bad about yourself because the person that you love continues to be unhappy in spite of your best efforts to be a good partner.

You have been wearing the weight of these very heavy circumstances and you're just trying to survive.

 

You feel like you're going crazy. You feel confused. You feel like you've tried everything and nothing makes it better... or makes him better.

On top of that, you're isolated. You feel like you can't keep going to your family or your friends. It's like you've used all of your life lines.

Let me start by telling you that this is really common and it's not your fault that your partner is struggling.

 

But there's hope!

 

There are things you can start doing today to gain more control through the chaos

Danielle paves a path for hope and healing for the spouse, but also helps establish realistic expectations.  She outlines the good-the bad- and the ugly to lay out a plan for building your own support system and self-care practices you need to take control of yourself.

You end up healing wounds your soul has accumulated to develop the resilience needed to support your partner.  

~Anonymous Wife to Trauma Survivor

Meet Danielle Sebastian

For years, I struggled to make sense of my seemingly-doomed marriage. The turning point came with a heart-wrenching revelation – my husband, for the first time, shared his horrifying history of childhood trauma at the hands of the church. This moment of raw truth ignited an eight-year odyssey of recovery, marked by sorrow, anguish, and relentless determination.
 
As we navigated this tumultuous path, I realized the profound impact childhood trauma had on our relationship. But in seeking guidance, I faced a stark reality – there was a startling lack of resources for spouses. The internet offered mere fragments of information, but what I yearned for was a comprehensive understanding. I needed to know that the difficulties we faced weren't my fault, that they stemmed from unaddressed trauma and our responses to it.
 
Recognizing the glaring gap in support, I decided to create what I couldn't find. This platform is more than just a collection of articles; it's a sanctuary for those seeking understanding and practical tools to navigate the complex dynamics of a relationship affected by childhood trauma. Here, you'll find the guidance I longed for – the knowledge to help you see that you're not alone, the scripts to foster healthier communication, and the strategies to build boundaries and resolve conflicts.

 

Join me on this journey of healing and empowerment. Together, let's transform our struggles into a story of resilience and hope.
