Episode 9: Two paraplegics reveal how embracing the mundane crushed chaos addiction and unlocked real healing. In this raw, hilarious, and actionable episode, Bridger and Elena expose the novelty trap that self-sabotages SCI recovery — and prove “boring” routines rebuild your body, gut, and mindset. Bridger breaks his progress-panic cycle; Elena drops her foolproof meal-prep blueprint, macro secrets, and decision-free freedom. From chicken-thigh hacks to PT-141 science, testosterone truths, and the epic 7-possum massacre, this is your playbook for turning monotony into momentum. No fluff — just vulnerable SCI wins.

You’ll hear powerful moments on:

• Chaos addiction: Why novelty triggers self-sabotage and hidden trauma healing

• Decision fatigue: Uber Eats spirals, fridge stare-downs, and earning dopamine treats

• Trauma integration: Routine fear, receiving lessons, and parasympathetic biohacks

• Gut hacks: Emulsifier-free ice cream, treat snowballs, and whole-food calorie deficits

• Peptides & hormones: PT-141 (3-day effects via ChatGPT), BPC-157/TB-500, testosterone empathy

• Recovery tools: Augment center (ice baths, float tanks, inversion boots), 8-week routine lock-in
