You’ll learn how repeated choices carve “neural pathways,” why early mindset work feels like “manual labor,” and how five daily gratitudes weaken the old route while strengthening a new, healthier default. They share personal stories, address “toxic positivity” concerns, and give you a concrete daily plan that compounds over time. Stick with it and you’ll hit the tipping point where positivity becomes your path of least resistance. Key Takeaways Gratitude is the easiest entry point to mindset work—easy to do, easy not to do; consistency wins. Repetition builds positive neural pathways and weakens negative ones. Expect it to feel unnatural at first—that discomfort means you’re changing. Use topic-specific gratitudes (self, family, work, health) when you’re stuck. Catch the decision point; if you slip, choose again. Progress > perfection. Do This Today (Action Steps) Do 5 gratitudes (morning or night). Add a brief “why” to each (“I’m grateful for sleep because…”). When negativity hits, list 3–5 gratitudes about that exact situation. Bonus: share one gratitude with someone to reinforce the habit. Memorable Lines “What’s easy to do is easy not to do.” “Your life happens in the little moments—each one is a decision point.” “You’re not ignoring pain; you’re choosing focus so you can heal.” Episode Guide Welcome & series intro → why daily coaching Mindset = foundation → “manual labor” in the brain Neural pathways → the two paths in the woods How to practice gratitude (what/when/how deep) Handling ‘toxic positivity’ The decision point → catch and switch Progress over perfection → stop the beat-yourself-up loop Today’s action plan → 5-gratitudes challenge What’s next this week: Routines (Tue), Processing (Wed), Special Topic (Thu), Tools (Fri) Next Up Tomorrow: Routines & Consistency—systems that make your mindset work stick.

From moving out of dependence to owning your recovery, to befriending pain and playing bigger—this episode is a practical blueprint to get back in control. Key takeaways (the 10 shifts): Dependence → Independence: stop outsourcing healing; take the wheel. Blame → Responsibility: no more excuses; own your outcomes. “No Control” → Self-Control: you can influence thoughts, emotions, choices. Stuck Loops → Choose a New Path: if the old path fails, change paths—today. Avoid Pain → Befriend Pain: pain is a signal and a teacher. Self-Deception → Radical Honesty: feel and say what’s true, so it can release. Self-Hatred → Self-Love: compassion unlocks closed parts of you. Suppressing → Releasing Emotions: learn the skill of safe, full expression. Short-Term Hits → Long-Term Focus: consistency beats quick fixes. Playing Small → Playing Big: massive action creates outsized results.

Mimi shares her journey, starting from her teenage years in 1979, how bulimia progressively took over her life, and the turning point that led to her healing. She discusses the triggering events, her process of self-discovery, failed attempts to find help, and the eventual breakthrough through a combination of journaling, analyzing emotions, and processing trauma. This episode sheds light on the connection between trauma and eating disorders, offering hope and actionable insights for those struggling with similar issues.  00:00 Introduction to the Podcast 00:27 Mimi's Early Struggles with Bulimia 01:58 Realization and Self-Discovery 04:20 Managing Bulimia for 20 Years 06:50 The Turning Point: Finding BTU 08:42 Processing Trauma and Healing 13:23 Insights on Eating Disorders and Trauma 17:36 Brad's Reflections and Further Questions 35:31 Healing Trauma at the Root 36:31 Rapid Processing and Results 39:58 The Power of Journaling 44:27 Analyzing and Processing Emotions 51:51 Core Beliefs and Self-Perception 57:43 Advice for Those Struggling 01:01:18 Final Thoughts on Healing   PODCAST INFO: – Podcast Website: https://www.overcomingptsd.com/ – Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-overcoming-ptsd-podcast/id1444342036 – Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4rQm0kZjQukx9nKAd2KcQH?si=8e9SjnuIQdG45Skmzn48Iw – RSS: https://feed.podbean.com/overcomingptsd/feed.xml   FOLLOW & CONNECT: – YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@OvercomingPTSD?sub_confirmation=1

What does it really take to heal from PTSD? In this episode, I sit down with Cayla to break down her healing journey in raw detail. Over the past 8 months, Kayla processed: ✅ 12 major traumas ✅ 57 limiting beliefs ✅ 270.5 hours of deep processing work That’s an average of just 3 weeks to fully heal each trauma, and about 4 hours 45 minutes to shift each core belief. But behind the numbers is a much bigger story: How Cayla went from feeling like “a ball of chaos” to experiencing true inner harmony. The exact step-by-step processes she used to stay consistent and actually heal. What it feels like when a trigger that once controlled your life suddenly becomes a non-issue. Why doubt never fully goes away—and how she turned that doubt into fuel for growth. The role of parts work, emotional safety, and detachment in creating lasting peace. If you’ve ever wondered what consistent trauma healing looks like in practice, this episode gives you the inside look. 📌 Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been on the journey for years, Kayla’s story proves one thing: healing is possible—and it’s worth every hour you put in. 🔗 Resources & Links: https://www.overcomingptsd.com/ – Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-overcoming-ptsd-podcast/id1444342036 – Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4rQm0kZjQukx9nKAd2KcQH?si=8e9SjnuIQdG45Skmzn48Iw – RSS: https://feed.podbean.com/overcomingptsd/feed.xml   FOLLOW & CONNECT: – YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@OvercomingPTSD?sub_confirmation=1
