| Ep. 96 | The Story No One Is Telling: What a Team USA Bobsledder’s Brain Injury Reveals About Depression and Mental Health | 09 Feb 2026 | 01:18:39 | |
Send me a text sharing your thoughts or questions This episode started as a conversation about an elite sport — but it quickly became something much bigger. Former Team USA bobsledder Will Person shares what happened years after repeated head trauma left him battling confusion, depression, memory loss, and suicidal thoughts — long after his athletic career ended. His story highlights a critical gap in how we understand mental health: many people struggling with depression, personality changes, or cognitive decline may be living with untreated brain injury — without knowing it. With the Winter Olympics underway, this conversation offers an important behind-the-scenes look at what high-impact sports demand of the brain — and why athletes are often taught to push through symptoms that appear “minor” at the time. In veterinary medicine and other caregiving professions, mental health struggles are often framed as emotional or psychological problems alone. This episode invites a deeper question: What happens when physical brain injury, chronic stress, inflammation, or nervous system overload are part of the picture — but never evaluated? In this episode, we explore:

| Ep. 85 | Overwhelmed by the State of the World? How to Harness Your Stress Strategically | 26 Jun 2025 | 00:24:36 | |
Send me a text sharing your thoughts or questions In this episode, Dr. Amelia explores how to navigate the overwhelming state of the world without burning out. She explains that the discomfort we’re feeling—stress, frustration, heartbreak—isn’t the problem. It’s a normal, human response to a world that’s out of alignment. The real issue is how we’ve been taught to react to that discomfort. Dr. Amelia breaks down common nervous system stress responses—flight, fight, and freeze—and how to work with them instead of against them. You’ll learn how to harness your stress strategically so it fuels aligned, meaningful action (instead of exhaustion or shutdown). By recognizing your patterns and supporting your nervous system, you can turn this chaotic time into a turning point—one that reconnects you to what really matters.

| Ep. 69 | Game Changer Sneak Peak: The 3 Wellness Levels | 20 Mar 2024 | 00:20:41 | |
Send me a text sharing your thoughts or questions We’re doing something new today! Last month, I did a major update to my Game Changer and added an audio option to each lesson so that you have the option to listen to your daily 10-15 minutes lesson during your commute, while going for a walk, or while washing dishes or folding laundry instead of having to sit down and read. My goal is to make this journey as easy as possible for you. Since I now have the audio, this is a glimpse of one of the first lessons in the Game Changer that teaches a key concept if you’re wanting to make healthy changes but keep promising yourself you’ll start tomorrow or if you’re making healthy changes but they feel hard and unsustainable. There are really 3 Wellness Levels, but our world acts like here are only 2 and both of those are pretty unappealing and uncomfortable. After listening to this episode, let me know which one sounds most familiar to you!

| Ep. 68 | Recovering From Burnout with Guest Dr. Stacey Cordivano - The Whole Veterinarian | 29 Feb 2024 | 00:59:04 | |
Send me a text sharing your thoughts or questions In this episode, Dr. Stacey Cordivano shares her story of experiencing and recovering from burnout. As a solo ambulatory equine veterinarian and mom with two kids under the age of 3, she knew something had to change when she found herself driving to the hospital to have her appendix out after cooking Thanksgiving dinner. Just a couple of months earlier, she had been diagnosed with Lyme disease and experienced the emotional trauma of needing to wean her second child from nursing early. Despite making some changes, a year later she found herself asking, "What am I doing? Am I really making a difference?". That's when she started to discover personal development podcasts which introduced her to a whole new world that helped her start her journey of recovering from burnout.

Send me a text sharing your thoughts or questions The moment my life changed was the moment I started to see the unconscious chains that had been holding me back from everything that I wanted but I didn't think was possible.

Send me a text sharing your thoughts or questions In this episode, I talk about how our society has normalized turning to things that don't make us feel good in order for a brief reprieve from the judgmental inner thoughts and voices that are holding us back and weighing us down. It has been so normalized that most people don't even realize the price they're willing to pay for those moments when they feel free. When you start to become aware of those thoughts and inner critics and call them out, you start to feel free in life and those things like alcohol and unhealthy food become so much less appealing.
