29 Episode - Living in a World of Danger - Shot Six Times, Left For Dead, and How I Overcame PTSD

Imagine being shot six times — and surviving… only to realize the most challenging part isn’t healing the body, but convincing your mind that it’s safe to live again. Our guest was shot six times in the line of duty as a police officer. He grew up in a war zone — surrounded by violence most people can’t even imagine. Maybe you haven’t lived in a war zone — but the yelling, the chaos, the physical or emotional violence at home can leave your mind braced for danger, too. The constant sense that the world isn’t safe… the tension you carry long after the danger is over… that’s hypervigilance, and it affects millions of people every day. It’s my honor to introduce Robert Gene, founder and CEO of The Skills to Change Institute and creator of Eutaptics® FasterEFT™. Known as “The Einstein of the Mind,” Robert has spent over four decades teaching people how to rewrite memories, transform emotional patterns, and create measurable, lasting change. Robert explains what happens in the mind after extreme experiences and why emotional patterns keep people trapped in fear and hypervigilance. He shares how the mind’s structure can be shifted so people can step out of survival mode and finally experience peace and safety again. You’ll learn: Why trauma keeps people replaying fear long after the event is over. The steps Robert uses to help people reprogram their memories and emotional responses. What it takes to move from survival to freedom and peace. Later in the episode, our guest, Nigel Colmer, opens up about surviving a life marked by violence — and reveals how Eutaptics® helped him finally step out of survival mode, reclaim his peace, and feel safe in the world again. This episode is more than a story — it’s a roadmap for understanding yourself, releasing fear, and discovering what it feels like when your mind and body finally agree: you’re safe now.
