PTSD and Beyond

“Sometimes the bravest and most important thing you can do is just show up.” – Glennon Doyle

Courage isn’t loud. It’s not always a leap or a battle cry. Sometimes—it’s a whisper. A moment. A breath. A choice to try again.

In this episode, we explore what it means to feel courageous—not perform it. You’ll hear how joy isn’t the reward for perfection or assimilation, but a return to self. We’ll talk abo...

In today’s complex and noisy world, making decisions that truly align with our values can feel impossible — especially when life has been disrupted by trauma, loss, or change.

This week, I’m honored to welcome Somik Raha, author of Invaluable: Achieving Clarity on Value, to the podcast. Somik offers a profound yet practical invitation: to pause, discover, and articulate the unique values already within you — and to integrate them i...

30 Myths of PTSD and the Healing Truths That Break Them

In this special episode for PTSD Awareness Day, we’re cutting through the noise and going beyond the surface.

Too often, the conversation around PTSD focuses on symptoms, diagnoses, or one-size-fits-all solutions. But healing is human—and so are the myths we carry about what PTSD is supposed to look like.

Today, Dr. Deb shares 30 powerful myths and the healing truths that gent...

In this bold and birthday episode, we get real about what it actually looks like to grow after trauma—and how that growth leads to becoming unfuckwithable.

We’re not talking about surface-level healing or performance-based self-care. We’re talking about reclaiming self-respect, choosing power, and walking away from anything that dishonors your healing.

• What it means to be unfuckwithable after PTSD

• Why self-...

“Just because it’s invisible doesn’t mean it’s not real. I believed me. And that changed everything," Dr. Deb Lindh

Welcome to PTSD Awareness Month. In this powerful opening episode, Dr. Deb Lindh shares a deeply personal story—what it was like to ask for help and be dismissed, disbelieved, and ignored… and what happened next.

This is more than a story about pain—it's about resilience, self-trust, and...

In this special episode of PTSD and Beyond®, we pause for a moment of reflection, grounding, and presence—with a new original poem titled What Comes Next.

This piece speaks to the quiet courage it takes to keep going, the uncertainty that comes after survival, and the space between endings and beginnings. For anyone who’s ever asked, "Now what?" or sat in the stillness waiting for clarity to arrive—this one is for you.

We explore:

In this special Memorial Day episode of PTSD and Beyond®, Dr. Deb Lindh invites listeners into a space of sacred pause, purposeful reflection, and heart-centered healing.

What if trauma wasn’t the end of the story—but the beginning of a new chapter?

In this powerful episode of PTSD and Beyond, we welcome Josh Goldberg, CEO of Boulder Crest Foundation, and Dr. Taryn Greene, trauma researcher and storyteller, to explore the science and soul of Post-Traumatic Growth (PTG).

There’s a moment when survival turns into something greater — when the silence breaks, the chains fall, and we reclaim our voice, our story, and our future.

In this special episode, I share an original spoken word piece, "When She Says She's Done," — a powerful poem about closing the door on betrayal, breaking cycles of harm, and choosing a new legacy built on strength, truth, and unconditional self-love.

This isn’t just about bein...

There’s a common belief that growth only happens after we heal — but that’s not the full truth.

In this heart-to-heart solo episode, Dr. Deb shares a powerful reflection on what it really looks like to grow within healing — not after it.

Boldness is about rediscovering the parts of us that trauma and life may have dimmed. It’s about being unapologetically YOU again.
