If you’re a First Responder, veteran, or trauma survivor, chances are you’ve felt your mind stuck in overdrive — reliving past events, bracing for future threats, and rarely feeling safe or grounded in the now. It’s like having dozens of mental browser tabs open, constantly draining your energy, clarity, and peace of mind.
In this episode of Unbreakable Resilience, Dr. Giuseppe Chiaramonte — former law enforcement officer and survivor of job-related PTSD — gets real about what it feels like to live in that mental chaos. Drawing from his own healing journey, Giuseppe shares the emotional toll of bottling up trauma, trying to function through daily life while silently suffering, and the moment he realized he had to stop "time traveling" and come back to the present.
Using real-life examples from the field and at home, he introduces powerful strategies for healing. These daily disciplines help ground the body and calm the mind — one intentional action at a time.
If you’re tired of the mental fatigue, emotional shutdown, and physical exhaustion that come from living in the wrong mental time zone, this episode is your wake-up call.
It's time to close the tabs. It's time to stop time traveling. It's time to come home to the present.
Because healing only happens here — in the now.
