This Experience Rewires How You Think, Feel, and Lead ft. Debi Silber | The Kronos Group Podcast #298
Fri Feb 06 2026
Betrayal isn't just emotional pain — it's a different kind of trauma that impacts leadership, decision-making, health, trust, and business performance.
In this episode of The Kronos Group Podcast, host Jerry Brazie sits down with Dr. Debi Silber, founder of the Post Betrayal Transformation Institute, two-time international bestselling author, and leading researcher on post-betrayal syndrome.
Dr. Debi shares groundbreaking research showing how unhealed betrayal silently sabotages entrepreneurs and executives, often disguising itself as burnout, overworking, anxiety, micromanagement, health issues, and stalled growth.
In this conversation, we cover: Why betrayal is not the same as other trauma
The 5 stages of betrayal recovery and where most people get stuck
How unhealed betrayal impacts business performance, trust, and leadership
Why time and traditional therapy often don't heal betrayal
The connection between trauma, health, weight, stress, and execution
How leaders move from survival mode to clarity, strength, and grounded authority
If you're a business owner, executive, or entrepreneur operating under pressure — this episode will challenge how you think about stress, discipline, health, and leadership.
