Happy Monday Motivation!!
Feeling stuck and directionless in your PTSD recovery?
Don't worry, we've got you covered. We've all been there, but it's vital to know how to get out of it so you can start making progress
Today Brad and I talk about PTSD recovery planning...
What to plan, why it's important, and when you should be doing it.
Believe it or not, this is one of the most important parts of recovery, and is one of the first steps to ensure that you keep making consistent progress on your goals.
Without a direction and a plan to get there you won't take any action and you won't go anywhere.
Here's what we're covering:
1 - Why you need a plan to get "unstuck"
2 - When and how to create your unbreakable PTSD recovery plan
3 - What do include in your plan

Today Brad and I answer BIG questions...how to trust AND move through fear.
Here's the question we were asked...
"I find it hard to trust new people or just people in general, like my boyfriend, because of past hurts.
I know PTSD is typically because of past experience traumas, but I wanted to know how do you really start to learn how to trust people.
I have a fear that everyone is going to hurt me and that is not good in my relationships with friends and with my boyfriend.
How should we push through that fear? And how do we begin to trust others and believe that they won't hurt us?"
Here's what we cover...
1 - How to learn to trust again
2 - How to push through fear
3 - How to believe not everyone is bad

Welcome to Overcoming PTSD with Brad Schipke — the show that helps trauma survivors fully recover and rebuild their lives without therapy or medication.
I’m Brad Schipke, a trauma recovery coach who’s personally healed PTSD, complex PTSD, and addiction. I know exactly how hopeless trauma can feel — and I also know the proven path forward.
Each week, you’ll get powerful conversations, science-backed tools, and real-world strategies for healing trauma, calming your nervous system, and overcoming PTSD symptoms for good.
We’ll explore how to:
Process unhealed memories safely and effectively
Regulate anxiety, panic, and emotional flashbacks
Rebuild relationships and self-trust after trauma
End cycles of depression, dissociation, and avoidance
Create a life filled with peace, purpose, and joy
Through in-depth interviews with survivors and experts, plus my own lessons from guiding thousands through recovery, you’ll discover what actually works — and what doesn’t — in the healing process.
Whether you’re at the beginning of your journey or deep in recovery, you’ll find hope, validation, and clear next steps here.
Because healing from PTSD and CPTSD isn’t a dream — it’s a repeatable, achievable reality.
You can heal.
You deserve to heal.
And you don’t have to do it alone.
Join me every week for new episodes, and start your transformation today at OvercomingPTSD.com
