"I want to educate every first responder that is struggling because they're our heroes and they're the ones that need to be poured into" ~ Marly

Burnout, PTSD, and constant high-alert living take a toll—especially on first responders. Neurotrainer and TBI survivor Marly Jones explains how chronic stress rewires the brain, causing fog, exhaustion, irritability, and poor sleep. She breaks down how trauma, toxins, and relentless shifts overload the limbic system and spark inflammation, and shares practical ways to reset—better sleep, lowering inflammatory triggers, boosting resilience, and gentle neurotraining.

A naturopath and certified brain health expert, Marly leads Change Your Brain, a free seminar supporting first responders in healing and rebuilding strength from the inside out.

"The sickness slowed me down and gave me time alone to get to know myself, reflect on my life and learn who I was" ~ Sondee

In this episode, we follow Sondee’s journey through hyperacusis, misdiagnosis, and the terrifying possibility of losing her independence. A low-frequency hum became the trigger that unraveled her nervous system, leading to vertigo and migraines. After a 2022 concert, months of denial, financial strain, and the emotional weight of parenting while unwell, her search for answers pushed her past symptom labels and into functional medicine testing, uncovering food sensitivities that shifted everything.

Sondee also shares the emotional side—the cost of staying silent, the courage to ask for help, and the power of rebuilding community. Her story becomes a blueprint for anyone seeking root-cause healing and an honest path forward.

"I surrender to you, Jesus, take care of everything" ~ Jennifer

Some stories redefine strength. Jennifer Cleveland’s journey carried her from a Georgia farm to the chaos of an ER, and then into darkness as her vision faded. What could have ended her story instead became a transformation. With faith as her compass, a white cane as her guide, and yoga and healing touch as her tools, she turned loss into purpose and presence.

From tending fields to teaching trauma-informed movement, Jennifer rebuilt her life by surrendering, serving, and showing others how resilience is formed one mindful choice at a time. Her journey proves that even in the darkest seasons, strength can still become light.
