Pathways

This pathway is informed by the Minwalla DST framework, which emphasizes ending integrity abuse and restoring reality before relational repair is considered.

Our pathway is designed to protect safety, prevent retraumatization, and support real change — without promising outcomes that cannot be ethically guaranteed.

Healing after betrayal requires the right kind of support at the right time.

We offer multiple pathways so recovery can happen with clarity, consent, and safety — without pressure to move faster or into work that isn’t appropriate yet.

Start Here: The Academy

The Academy is the foundation of our work.

It provides:

Shared language and orientation
Weekly live teaching twice a week (with replays)
A curated resource library used across our programs/coaching

The Academy is educational, not therapy, and not couples work. No application is required.

A Note On Availability

The Joy Recovery Pathway reflects the full framework we are building — not all components of which are available at once.

The Academy is launching first (expected in March, 2026).

The cohort-based pathways will open in phases throughout the year, beginning with the Integrity Cohort for Men, planned for May, 2026.

Additional cohorts will follow later in the year as each container is ethically ready to open.

This phased approach allows us to:

Maintain safety and containment
Launch each cohort with the appropriate structure and oversight
Avoid rushing people into work before the container is ready

Availability will be announced as each cohort opens.

Parallel but Independent Pathways

MEN'S PATHWAY - Accountability & Character Change

Men move through a required sequence focused on ending harm and consolidating integrity.

Integrity → Impact → Integration

Integrity Cohort - Stopping the harm
Impact Cohort - Understanding the harm, attending to the harm
Integration Cohort - Dismantling the system that caused the harm

This order exists because:

Empathy without integrity retraumatizes partners
Insight without accountability perpetuates harm
Wholeness cannot be built on secrecy

Completion of these cohorts does not guarantee:

Trust
Reconciliation
Intimacy

WOMEN'S PATHWAY - Safety, Agency, & Self-Trust

Women move through an independent pathway, autonomous of their partner’s progress.

Stabilization Cohort - Trauma education, nervous system safety, and reality validation
Self-Trust Cohort - Boundaries, discernment, and reclaiming your internal compass
Self-Alignment Cohort - Identity rebuilding, values alignment, and life direction
