Host: Brad Schipke • Overcoming PTSD Podcast • Recovery Secrets Daily Coaching
In this workshop-style episode, Brad and Kayleen walk you through how to build an evening routine that actually supports PTSD and trauma recovery. Instead of chasing motivation or “perfect” plans, they show you how to design a simple nighttime rhythm you can stick with long term.
You’ll hear why Brad considers the evening routine “the tipping point for everything” — the foundation for better sleep, more energy, and more consistent healing work. They break down how your brain and nervous system rely on predictable sleep and wake times to regulate, process, and repair after trauma.
Together, they help you identify your ideal bedtime and sleep time, then reverse-engineer a realistic plan around it. You’ll learn how to use anchors, alarms, and accountability to keep your foot on the gas without perfectionism, and how to make tiny adjustments that add up to massive change over weeks and months.
This episode ends with a clear 7-day evening routine challenge so you’re not just inspired — you’re taking action tonight. If you’ve struggled to be consistent with routines or feel stuck in chaotic sleep patterns, this conversation will give you structure, hope, and a doable next step.
💡 What You’ll Learn
🧠 Key Takeaway
A great tomorrow starts tonight — your evening routine is the foundation that makes PTSD recovery simpler, calmer, and more consistent.
