#11 Releasing Inner Emotion: How to Let Go Safely and Regain Control | Recovery Secrets Series

Host: Brad Schipke • Overcoming PTSD Podcast • Recovery Secrets Daily Coaching

In this episode, Brad and Kayleen reveal one of the most foundational skills for trauma recovery — learning how to safely release the emotional pressure that’s been trapped inside for years.

If you’ve ever felt like your emotions are bottled up, heavy, or “too much to handle,” this session will show you how to let them out safely, intentionally, and under control — not in chaos or reactivity.

Using the now-famous “shaken soda bottle” analogy, Brad and Kayleen explain how emotions build up pressure internally, why simply “venting” or “exploding” doesn’t help, and how to gradually release emotions without losing control.

This is one of the core tools that makes deeper trauma processing possible — and it’s the step most people miss when they get stuck.
