And as you said, it's also generational" (2:11) "When someone is betrayed in that high stakes situation like a marriage, by the other person that has authority, then there is a loss of trust… And when you lose trust it's not simply left with a vacuum" (6:37) "Moral injury, instead of striking first, hiding or becoming a brilliant liar, is instead attaching oneself to a person or an organization for protection. So people who have experience moral injury like to leech themselves onto organizations or people." (17:08) "It sounds kind of petty, three decades later, but it hurts and we're social creatures and if we feel marginalized socially, we are hardwired genetically as social creatures to feel like that is generally life-threatening." (20:12) "There's more to dealing with betrayal than just looking at stressful thoughts. Because there is a definite impact on the physical body. That's why I created the frameworks that I did, in order to help people whether they are dealing with something like that's chronically unwell or they are dealing with an addiction."
