Most people don’t relapse because they’re weak they relapse because the system is broken. In this eye-opening finale with Trish Caldwell, we dismantle the outdated practices still plaguing mental and physical healthcare today. From rushed trauma processing to therapy models designed for the wrong population, Trish breaks down how ego, convenience, and old training can sabotage true healing. Whether you're a clinician, patient, or loved one this conversation forces all of us to confront the uncomfortable truth: most treatment plans are designed to feel good, not to work. They're simply coming from an outdated approach that needs to evolve. But there's another way. Trish shares how measured-based care, proper pacing, and skill-building can change the future of recovery. You'll hear powerful metaphors (like why healing is like training for a marathon in flip-flops) and bold insights that challenge everything we’ve accepted about mental health, trauma recovery, and treatment outcomes. If you’ve ever felt like you or someone you care about “failed” in treatment this episode is your permission slip to question the system, not yourself.

- To the professionals: What will you change in your practice today?

- To the self-healers: What’s your next step in recognizing, regulating, and responding differently?

- To the skeptics: What if everything you believed about healing... is wrong?

This is your mind. This is your moment. What will you do with it?

"The solution isn’t what you reach for in the crisis it’s what you’ve built long before it." In Part 3 of this eye-opening series with Trish Caldwell, Mind Amendment host Patrick Custer digs deeper into why healing often feels elusive even when we “know what to do.” Trish flips the script on the traditional view of coping skills like deep breathing or journaling as emergency tools. Instead, she argues that these practices only work when they’ve been integrated consistently into daily life, expanding our emotional tolerance long before a trigger ever shows up. This conversation explores how to identify your personal "tells" the subtle signs that you (or your clients) are already in a vulnerable, dysregulated state. Trish shares why the key to real healing is recognizing these moments of susceptibility and shifting the focus from reacting in crisis to preventing it through proactive self-regulation. Get ready for a powerful reframing of what emotional healing really looks like and why it starts way earlier than most of us think.
