Healing a Dozen Traumas in 270 Hours: Interview With Cayla Dean
What does it really take to heal from PTSD?
In this episode, I sit down with Cayla to break down her healing journey in raw detail.
Over the past 8 months, Kayla processed:
✅ 12 major traumas
✅ 57 limiting beliefs✅ 270.5 hours of deep processing work
That’s an average of just 3 weeks to fully heal each trauma, and about 4 hours 45 minutes to shift each core belief.
But behind the numbers is a much bigger story:
How Cayla went from feeling like “a ball of chaos” to experiencing true inner harmony.
The exact step-by-step processes she used to stay consistent and actually heal.
What it feels like when a trigger that once controlled your life suddenly becomes a non-issue.
Why doubt never fully goes away—and how she turned that doubt into fuel for growth.
The role of parts work, emotional safety, and detachment in creating lasting peace.
If you’ve ever wondered what consistent trauma healing looks like in practice, this episode gives you the inside look.
📌 Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been on the journey for years, Kayla’s story proves one thing: healing is possible—and it’s worth every hour you put in.
