Have you ever wondered if you're actually making progress on your recovery journey?
I know recovery can be a "one day at a time" process sometimes, but it's important to look up sometimes to see how far you've come and if you're even on the right track.
Today I put together a training encouraging you to do that and showing you what to look for...
Here's what I cover in the training:
- The difference between coping & healing
The truth is, taking the time to reflect, and see how far I had progressed was a really important part of my recovery journey. It showed me how far I had come and allowed me to see if I was even on the right track still.
After all, you don't look at a compass once and then hope you're heading in the right direction for the rest of the trip. You check it again and again to make sure you're on track, and if you're not correct your course.
PTSD is no different!
I believe in you always.

Have you ever felt like I did on my recovery?
For me, recovery felt like I was working really hard to heal and get better but no matter how hard I tried I always ended up getting hurt or self sabotaging in the end. I couldn't figure out why I kept ending up back in the same spot day after day and year after year.
I felt trapped.
If you've felt this way too, you're not alone. Years ago I found out that a lot of people feel this way too... So many in fact that I had to make the solution part of my PTSD recovery program - Broken to Unbreakable
Today I want to share something really special with you...
How to get out of this trap and make real true progress In one of my Broken to Unbreakable live community Q&A's recently, I extensively covered 2 worksheets that I have all my clients complete to get out of this trap.
These are the foundational actions you need to take to solve this problem.
Here's what they are:
"The Commitment Contract" - How to use the forces of pain and pleasure to work for you instead of against you
"Designing Your Recovery Hero" - How to be intentional about who you're becoming to ensure you don't end up "trapped" in PTSD forever I'm even going to share the actual worksheets so you can download them and take action on them yourself. (links below) Remember that action is the most important part of the recovery journey.
I believe in you always.

Many people feel like they have pressure to be strong because they're moms, dr.'s, military, men, or from certain cultures....
But what does "strong" really mean?
Does it mean you can't heal?
Or that you can't express emotion?
If you feel like healing has to be different for you because of your profession, status, gender, race or anything else, join Brad and I as we explore where this myth comes from and what true strength really means.

My goal is to give you everything you need to make a full recovery so I become obsolete in your life. Overcoming PTSD is an internal game, and it's not something you want to put into someone else's hands.
Most 'experts' out there give you a fish and feed you for a day...
We teach you how to fish and feed you for a lifetime.

Does PTSD ever heal, or does it go into remission just to come out later in life? The answer is clear, but for many it's not.

"My Dr./Therapist/Psychologist/Psychiatrist told me MY PTSD is impossible to heal and I'll have to live like this forever"
I hear this way too often and on this episode of PTSD TV Brad and I debunk this harmful myth and show you that no matter what you've been told before, it IS possible to heal PTSD.
Being told it's impossible for you to heal is one of the most dangerous things to be told about recovery, but it could also be the very thing that pushes you to full recovery...
You read that right... being told something like this is typically a make or break point in someones recovery journey. All too often it's a breaking point, but with the right mindset it's a making point.
In this episode Brad and I bust this harmful myth so you can move forward with your recovery even if you've been told your situation is hopeless and you just have to learn to live like this.
Hope you enjoy the episode!

"The healing journey itself should not be traumatic."
On this episode of PTSD TV Brad and I talk about another big myth that blocks a lot of people from recovery... The belief you have to remember or relive trauma to heal.
I'll let you know right now that that's not the truth.
But if you feel this way, you're not alone.. This is a myth that personally stopped my recovery journey in its tracks more than a few times.
This myth stops a lot of people from seeking help for this PTSD because that either don't even know where they'll start on their healing journey or are too afraid that they'll have to go through everything all over again to make any progress...
In this episode Brad and I bust this harmful myth so you can move forward with your recovery even if you don't remember what hurt you.
Hope you enjoy the episode!
