Overcoming PTSD with Brad Schipke
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.

Today we talk about Gary Keller's Book "The ONE Thing" on our newest episode of PTSD Book Club...
You might be asking yourself...
Why are you reviewing a book that's not about PTSD?
Well, it's simple actually...
You need to be learning how to grow and improve your life from all different sources.
You need an open mind and a desire to learn from everyone if you want to make a full recovery.
When you close your mind to new ideas you prevent yourself from growing and recovering.
Here's what we're covering...
1 - How to figure out what's most important and how to give it your undivided attention
2 - The 4 Thieves of Progress (Any ONE of these could derail your recovery!)
3 - How to make sure you're recovering as fast as possible by using the "focusing question"
Learn all this and more in today's episode!
Learning what to focus on, and how to take action on it is vital...
Or else you'll be spinning your tires trying to go in a million and one directions at once and effectively go...
Nowhere.
So listen up and get ready to expand your thinking!

SUMMARY
Why are we talking about things you SHOULDN’T do?
Because the success that you have in your PTSD recovery is not about what you add, it’s about what you eliminate.
You’ll find when you cut out all the bad in your life, things start to get a LOT better!
You’ll always hear about things you should be adding to your life, but that can make things confusing…
We always need to be looking for things to eliminate…
Things that hold us back and keep us repeating these same cycles over and over.
Interested in learning what you NEED to eliminate?
Great! Because today we’re reviewing and talking about Amy Morin’s Upcoming Book… “13 Things Mentally Strong Women Don’t Do”!
This is an incredible read that you should pre-order now by clicking here.
And, if you’re a guy don’t worry…
Everything we talk about today is just great advice all around, and Brad agrees too!
You can also check out Amy’s first book “13 Things Mentally Strong PEOPLE Don’t Do” By Clicking Here — It’s an international best seller and you can order a copy today!
Hope You Enjoy The Show!!
