Instead of letting your goals fade like old school lessons you barely remember, you’ll learn how to keep your future self front and center in your mind so healing becomes your default direction. Using simple analogies like the old Garmin GPS and the brain’s “recalculating” system, Brad explains why you naturally forget even powerful insights if you don’t revisit them—and how to work with your brain instead of against it. You’ll see why doing the exercise once is helpful, but refreshing it consistently is what creates real change. You’ll also learn practical visualization tools, daily prompts, and simple questions you can ask yourself in real-time moments of stress, conflict, or temptation. This is about turning your recovery hero from “nice idea on paper” into a living guide you can lean on when it matters most. By the end, you’ll walk away with one clear action to weave your recovery hero into your routines so you stop settling for 10% of your potential and start moving steadily toward full recovery.   💡 What You’ll Learn Why your brain forgets most things you hear once—and how to use that knowledge to support PTSD recovery How to keep your “recovery hero” (future healed self) clear, vivid, and emotionally real Simple daily visualization practices to embody how your recovered self thinks, feels, and acts How to use the “What would my recovery hero do?” question in tough emotional moments Ways to bring your recovery hero into conflicts, triggers, and everyday decisions How emotion supercharges memory and how to attach positive emotion to your healing goals The difference between learning, studying, and mastering trauma recovery tools How to use your brain’s RAS (Reticular Activating System) to notice more opportunities for healing A step-by-step suggestion for choosing one daily practice to keep your recovery hero alive in your life   🧠 Key Takeaway Your recovery hero isn’t a fantasy version of you—it’s your true self uncovered, and every time you ask “What would my recovery hero do?” you take one real step closer to becoming that person.   🔗 Next Steps Subscribe for new weekday episodes from the Recovery Secrets Daily Coaching archive.
