In this episode, Brad breaks down why most people in PTSD and trauma recovery keep starting strong, burning out, and ending up right back where they began. Instead of chasing quick fixes or waiting to “feel motivated,” he introduces gradualism and the compound effect as the real path to full healing.

Using powerful examples—from the “magic penny” that quietly turns into millions to how two and a half Oreos a day can change your body over five years—Brad shows how tiny daily actions add up to massive transformation in your nervous system, relationships, and recovery. You’ll see why consistency is the only true “magic pill.”

You’ll also learn how to make your healing goals measurable and specific, so you actually know if you’re getting better. Brad walks through concrete PTSD metrics like distress and believability levels, and how to define what things like “peace,” “safety,” or “compassion” really mean for you.

By the end, you’ll know exactly how to move from all-or-nothing effort to simple, sustainable daily steps that move you from point A to point Z—no matter how big your trauma recovery goal is or how unmotivated you feel today.

💡 What You’ll Learn

🧠 Key Takeaway

Consistency is the only real magic pill in PTSD recovery—tiny daily steps, done over time, create the “overnight” transformation everyone else calls impossible.
