Erika shares her personal turning point when survival mode nearly broke her, and how learning to set boundaries, develop small repeatable habits, and create simple systems helped her find her footing again. This episode is packed with practical tools and encouragement for wives who feel like they’re running on fumes but are ready to take one step toward stability and sustainability.

In this episode of The Real Lives of TBI Wives, host Erika Brouillette introduces the RECLAIM framework — her three-step process for helping wives of men with traumatic brain injuries find themselves again after years of survival mode. Step one is Reconnect: coming back to your true self and your higher power so you can breathe, heal, and live from a place of strength instead of exhaustion.

Erika shares her personal story of disconnection during her husband’s recovery, the turning point that led her back to God, and the daily practices that help her stay grounded even in chaos. You’ll walk away with practical tools you can start today — whether it’s a 5-minute grounding check-in, anchoring to a scripture, or using simple breath prayers to reset your nervous system.

If you’ve been holding it all together for everyone else and wondering when it will finally be your turn, this episode will help you start that journey back to you.
