Episode Title: "Beyond the Battlefield of Trauma Pt.3 : Navigating the Recovery Journey from PTSD and CPTSD"

Summary:

Understanding PTSD and CPTSD @ 0:00 In this episode, Wellness Coach Liz Blanding and special guest host Coach Rufus Carpenter dive into the distinctions between military PTSD and civilian Complex PTSD (CPTSD). They highlight that, while the symptoms may be similar, the root causes and recovery paths can differ significantly. Both emphasize that recovery is an ongoing journey and not a one-time event, with self-care being an essential component of this process.

Isolation as a Symptom and Obstacle @ 3:13 Coach Liz discusses how isolation, often used as a coping mechanism, can actually be a symptom and significant obstacle in the recovery from PTSD/CPTSD. The importance of building supportive communities and relationships to counteract this tendency towards isolation is stressed.

Perfectionism, Workaholism, and Burnout @ 6:57 Coach Rufus shares his personal struggle with PTSD, which led to perfectionism, fault-finding, and workaholism. These tendencies caused him considerable stress, worry, and fear. Coach Liz relates this to her own experiences, explaining how these patterns can lead to burnout and prevent proper self-care.

Upcoming Events and Resources @ 34:52 Coach Liz announces several upcoming events and resources designed to support individuals on their recovery journeys. These include:

• A free live virtual event on July 25th.
