| 10/24/26 | How to Support Mental Health: Practical Ways Anyone Can Help | Episode 47 | What can an everyday person do to support mental health? You donāt have to be a therapist, work for a mental health organization, or have extra money to make a difference. Sometimes it starts with listening well, learning what support is available nearby, or sharing a resource that helps someone take a next step.In this short episode of Rebuild & Fulfill, Kelsey Dunbar and Marc Rogala talk about practical ways to support mental health awareness and prevention. Marc shares what helps people feel heard when theyāre struggling: being present, listening without judgment, and asking what would be helpful instead of rushing in with advice. Kelsey and Marc also discuss why it matters to make time for a real answer when you ask someone, āHow are you really?āThe conversation looks beyond one-on-one support, too. Marc and Kelsey share ways people can contribute in their communities, even if they arenāt mental health professionals or organization leaders. You can learn what local organizations need, attend an event, volunteer, share educational information, or help someone find appropriate resources. You can also support the people and organizations doing this work by helping their messages reach a wider audience.And if your time or money is limited, you can still start with what you have. A single post, a book passed along to someone else, or a resource shared with one person can open the door to a meaningful conversation. Sharing doesnāt replace professional care, but it may help someone feel safer reaching out or looking for support.Kelsey and Marc also explain how their own roles in mental health work differ. Marc works directly with people and community organizations, while Kelsey helps build and manage Suffer to Tougher and its outreach. They share this as one example of how people can contribute in different ways, using their skills, time, and connections.You donāt have to do everything.

| 10/21/26 | Reinvention Before the Breaking Point: How to Change Without Starting Over | Episode 46 | Do you have to reach a breaking point before you make a change? Many people keep pushing through, even when a career, relationship, routine, or long-held goal no longer feels right. They may feel trapped, drained, resentful, or unsure what comes next, but worry that changing direction means theyāve failed or let someone down.In this episode of Rebuild & Fulfill, Kelsey Dunbar and Marc Rogala talk about reinvention and how to recognize when something in your life may need to change. They explore the difference between going through a difficult season and feeling a persistent uneasiness that keeps returning, even after the immediate pressure has passed.Marc shares how fear of the unknown, responsibility, and the belief that leaving a role means quitting can keep people stuck. He reflects on his own career transition and how the skills and experience he gained in one chapter of his life continue to serve him in another. Kelsey adds that change can involve more than a job or career. Relationships, physical goals, priorities, and our definition of success can all shift over time.This conversation is not a call to make a rushed or dramatic decision. Reinvention does not have to mean quitting, leaving, or throwing everything away. Sometimes it begins with a smaller adjustment: changing a routine, setting a limit, asking for support, exploring another option, or giving yourself permission to reconsider a goal.Kelsey and Marc also talk about what support can look like before someone reaches a crisis. It might be professional help, a conversation with someone close to you, or simply talking through your thoughts with someone whose perspective you trust. Writing things down, noticing what feels energizing or draining, and taking one small step can help you understand what you want before you commit to a bigger change.If youāve been wondering whether something in your life still fits, this episode may help you think it through without treating change as failure. You donāt need to know the whole path before you begin. Sometimes the first step is noticing what isnāt working and being willing to explore what could be different.In this episode:00:00 Reinvention before the breaking point02:05 What reinvention means and why it can be gradual03:21 Feeling trapped, stuck, or uneasy05:02 Signs that something may no longer fit06:17 When a difficult season becomes a recurring signal07:42 How to tell if the situation itself needs to change09:23 Questions to help you reflect without rushing10:42 Why people wait until they feel overwhelmed11:26 Fear of change, responsibility, and feeling like a failure14:23 When change happens for you, and finding hope in the unknown16:30 Small adjustments instead of dramatic leaps17:18 Work-life balance, support, and redefining success19:08 Support can help before a crisis20:05 Honoring what a past role or goal gave you22:31 Applying lessons from past relationships and experiences24:32 Small first steps, journaling, and exploring options26:16 Adjusting your plan does not mean you failed27:40 A reflection for listeners28:32 Marcās takeaway28:43 Closing thoughtsIf this conversation resonates with you, share it with someone who may be questioning whether itās time for a change.

| 10/16/26 | Candice Snyder: Reinvention, Kindness & Lessons From 300 Conversations | Episode 45 | What happens when the career and identity you built are suddenly taken away?After a work-related injury ended her career as a dental hygienist and left her with a permanent disability, Candice Snyder spent years trying to understand what could come next.Today, Candice hosts the globally ranked Passion, Purpose and Possibilities podcast, where more than 300 conversations have explored resilience, transformation, purpose, mental health, kindness, and meaningful impact.In this episode of Rebuild & Fulfill, Kelsey Dunbar and Marc Rogala talk with Candice about rebuilding after unexpected loss, discovering purpose through service, and creating conversations that help people feel seen, heard, and less alone.Candice shares:⢠The injury that ended her career and changed her identity⢠Rediscovering purpose through connection and service⢠Beginning a podcast despite her discomfort with technology⢠What interviewing men taught her about shared humanity⢠Seven lessons from 300 conversations⢠Why kindness needs to become louder and more visible⢠Listening in a way that makes people feel genuinely seen⢠Why reinvention has no age limit or expiration date⢠What she hopes to create nextKelsey and Marc also acknowledge how the life and loss of Candiceās brother, Mike, shaped her commitment to mental-health advocacy and suicide prevention.

| 10/10/26 | World Mental Health Day 2026: When We Truly Listen, Things Change | Episode 43 | World Mental Health Day 2026 asks us to move beyond mental health awareness and truly listen to people with lived experience. As Mental Illness Awareness Week comes to a close, Kelsey Dunbar and Marc Rogala explore what it means to turn real voices into real change.In this episode of Rebuild & Fulfill, Kelsey and Marc discuss the difference between hearing someone and making them feel genuinely heard, why mental health stigma still exists, and how lived experience and professional mental health care can work together.

| 10/6/26 | The Summit Is Over. The Transformation Isnāt. | Episode 42 | After months of planning, more than 150 speakers, six transformational lenses, and hundreds of powerful conversations, The Transformation Gap Summit has officially come to a close. But the real work is only beginning.In this episode of Rebuild & Fulfill, Kelsey Dunbar and Marc Rogala reflect on what it took to bring the Summit to life, what happened behind the scenes, and what they learned from the speakers and attendees who made it possible.They discuss why information alone rarely creates lasting change, how specific actions and accountability help turn knowledge into progress, and why people struggling to follow through may not be lazy, weak, or uncommitted. They may simply be carrying barriers other people cannot see.Kelsey and Marc also share the Summit moments that stayed with them, recognize the speakers, affiliates, attendees, and team behind the event, and answer the Summitās signature question:What is one action you can take within the next 24 hours to begin crossing the gap between what you know and how you are living?Timestamps00:00 Why knowing what to change still isnāt enough01:12 Looking back at the Transformation Gap Summit02:37 What happens after months of nonstop preparation?04:31 Did the Summit become bigger than expected?07:02 The moment the Summit finally felt real09:12 What happened behind the scenes11:46 Thanking the people who attended12:57 Why the audienceās time and attention mattered14:59 Attendee messages that stayed with Marc16:17 The commitment and generosity of the speakers19:07 Summit conversations that stood out21:31 NAMI DuPage and the importance of youth mental health24:57 The unseen barriers that interfere with change26:23 Why information alone rarely creates lasting change27:37 Turning an idea into specific action28:55 What the Summit taught Kelsey and Marc32:25 Why the Summit conversations are staying available34:03 The Transformation Gap Experience Pass36:01 Marc answers the signature 24-hour question37:09 Kelseyās priorities and personal next step38:12 Thanking the team behind the Summit39:24 The Summit is over, but the transformation isnātThe live Summit may be over, but lifetime access to its conversations, resources, implementation programs, and expanding AI Guide is available through The Transformation Gap Experience:https://thetransformationgapsummit.com/transformation-gap-experienceCross one gap.

Those two worlds eventually became Suffer To Tougher, and now they've helped bring together more than 130 voices from around the world.In this episode, Kelsey and Marc talk about:Why the Summit was built around a question rather than an answerHow their completely different life experiences shaped the speaker lineupWhy mental health runs throughout the Summit without making it a traditional mental-health conferenceHow the six Transformation Lenses organize more than 130 speakersHow the free six-day Summit actually worksWhy attendees should not try to watch everythingThe difference between gathering more information and actually implementing what you learnThe goal isn't to hear every speaker.It's to find the conversation that meets you where you are, take something from it, and do something with it.

Yet for years, he moved in and out of the program, returning when the pain became unbearable and leaving when the immediate crisis passed. Even incarceration wasnāt enough to quiet the obsession.Everything began to change after his final bet on February 9, 2012. His family stopped rescuing him, he was told he wasnāt welcome at Easter dinner, and two people offered exactly what he needed. One showed him compassion, while the other confronted him with a difficult truth.In this episode, Jimmy opens up about:⢠Growing up around normalized gambling in Chicagoās Little Italy⢠Recognizing his addiction but still believing he could control it⢠Why painful consequences werenāt enough to create lasting change⢠The difference between stopping gambling and truly living in recovery⢠Rebuilding trust through actions rather than promises⢠The growing risks created by mobile gambling, prop bets, and constant advertising⢠Turning his painful experiences into a purpose that helps othersJimmy has now been gambling-free for more than 14 years.

| 8/31/26 | International Overdose Awareness Day | Remembering the Lost, Fighting for the Living | Episode 37 | August 31 is International Overdose Awareness Day, a day to remember those who died, acknowledge the grief carried by families and friends, reduce the stigma surrounding addiction, and take action to prevent another life from being lost.For Rebuild & Fulfill co-host Marc Rogala, the meaning of this day is deeply personal.Marc experienced three overdoses that resulted in hospitalization, along with others that nobody ever knew about. His final overdose occurred on July 17, 2020, when an Uber driver recognized that something was wrong and called 911. Marcās sister found him on the kitchen floor, a police officer administered Narcan, and Marc woke up in intensive care.In this deeply personal conversation, Marc and Kelsey discuss why surviving an overdose does not automatically end an addiction, the people Marc knew who never made it into recovery, and the complicated emotions that come with surviving when others did not.They also explore the trauma experienced by parents, children, siblings, spouses, and friends, the language that can help someone accept treatment, and why recognizing addiction as an illness can replace shame with a path toward recovery.Today, we remember the people who were lost, stand beside those still struggling, support the loved ones affected, and honor the people who chose to act when someoneās life depended on it.If you believe someone is experiencing an opioid overdose, administer naloxone if available and call 911 immediately.

Anxiety is real. Fear is real. But sometimes the brain's alarm system can remain on high alert even after the original threat has passed.In this episode of Rebuild & Fulfill, Kelsey Dunbar and Marc Rogala sit down with Dr. Sam Tyriver, physical therapist and creator of the Certified Mindbody Trained Therapist program, and bestselling author Hayley DiMarco to explore the ideas behind their upcoming book, The Overprotective Brain.And for Hayley, this isn't simply a book she helped write. She originally met Sam as his patient. After years of chronic pain, migraines and anxiety, their work together changed the way she understood what was happening inside her own body and eventually led to an unexpected collaboration.Together, we explore how the brain can learn to associate movement and everyday experiences with danger, why avoidance can reinforce that alarm, the difference between hurt and harm, and why rebuilding trust in your body often requires taking small actions before you feel completely ready.Sam and Hayley also introduce the idea of your āInner Pharmacyā and explain how movement, connection, meaningful activity and other everyday behaviors can help support the brain and body.Marc also shares how this conversation intersects with his own experience of unexplained neck and back pain, prescription opioids, addiction and ultimately recovery.Perhaps the most powerful message comes near the end of the conversation when Hayley challenges the idea that years of pain, fear or avoidance have to become your identity:Who you became doesn't have to be who you remain.ResourcesThe Overprotective Brain Journal:OverprotectiveBrain.comCertified Mindbody Trained Therapist (CMBTT):MindBodyCert.comSam and Hayley will also be featured speakers at the upcoming Transformation Gap Summit, continuing this conversation about why knowing what needs to change and actually living that change can be two very different things.š§ Rebuild & FulfillReal conversations about rebuilding when life doesn't go according to plan and becoming stronger on the other side. | 1h 05m 31s | ||||||

She also shares the moment she finally stood in front of hundreds of people and declared, āI have bipolar disorder, but I am not bipolar disorder.āThat decision to stop hiding eventually became the Bipolar Babe Project and grew into a much larger mission through the Stigma-Free Mental Health Society, where Andrea has spent more than 15 years helping change the way people understand and talk about mental health.Andrea and Kelsey discuss the people who showed up when she needed them most, the unexpected origin of Bipolar Babe, the evolution of her advocacy, mental health in the workplace, reaching young people before they reach a crisis, and the individual stories that remind Andrea why this work matters.Andrea also opens up about her upcoming memoir, Bipolar Babe: A Tale of Two Worlds, and what an extraordinary life means to her today after decades of searching for it.Her answer is remarkably simple:Peace.If you've ever felt defined by a diagnosis, ashamed of something you've experienced, or wondered whether life can truly get better, Andrea's story is a powerful reminder that things can changeāand that you don't have to have everything figured out today.Connect with Andrea:Bipolar Babe: bipolarbabe.comStigma-Free Mental Health Society: stigmafreementalhealth.comIf this conversation resonates with you, please share it with someone who needs to hear Andrea's story, leave a comment, and consider rating or reviewing Rebuild & Fulfill.#MentalHealth #BipolarDisorder #BipolarBabe #MentalHealthAwareness #EndTheStigma #Resilience #MentalHealthAdvocacy #RebuildAndFulfill | 58m 05s | ||||||
| 8/23/26 | You Canāt Out-Tough Addiction | Eric Metcalfās Journey Through Recovery ā Part 2 | Episode 34 | What happens when the person who has spent his life helping others becomes the one who needs to be saved?In Part 2 of our conversation with Army veteran, recovery advocate, author, and NAMI DuPage Director of Peer Workforce Development Eric Metcalf, we continue a story that ultimately became about much more than addiction.After the death of his wife Jan, Eric intentionally began tearing apart the life they had built together. Eventually, the former shelter director found himself homeless, battling addiction, pushing away the people trying to reach him, and even staying in the same shelter he once helped lead.But people kept showing up.Former students Eric once mentored came looking for him. A man in recovery tracked him down and refused to accept ātomorrowā when Eric promised he'd get help. Those moments eventually helped Eric do something that had been incredibly difficult for him throughout his life:Allow himself to be helped.This conversation also becomes deeply personal for all three of us as we talk about why the people doing the helping still need help themselves, the importance of regular mental health check-ins, vulnerability, and the very different reasons each of us feels compelled to serve others.Eric puts it beautifully:āWe only heal from what we reveal.āWe also explore why lived experience makes peer support so powerful, how Eric eventually found his way to NAMI DuPage, the family and life he almost never got to experience, and the story behind his newly released book, Beyond the Shadows: A Search for ME.And that title leads us to perhaps the most important question of the entire two-part conversation:After the soldier, the businessman, the addict, the husband, the grief, the recovery, the service and everything you've survived...Eric Metcalf, who are you?Part 2 isn't simply about getting sober.It's about allowing yourself to be helped, discovering who you are beyond what happened to you, and realizing that as long as you're still here, your story isn't finished.š Eric's new book, Beyond the Shadows: A Search for ME, is available now:https://amzn.to/4bYaAm7šļø Rebuild & FulfillReal conversations on burnout, rebuilding, and becoming stronger than before.#RebuildAndFulfill #EricMetcalf #AddictionRecovery #MentalHealth #Recovery #Veterans #PTSD #PeerSupport #Resilience #NAMI #BeyondTheShadows | 1h 30m 03s | ||||||

He also opens up about receiving his PTSD and traumatic brain injury diagnoses and the realization that while he was helping other veterans piece their lives back together, his own life was being pieced back together too.One of the most powerful moments comes as Eric shares the story of Nate, a veteran he tried desperately to help who later died by suicide. The experience forced Eric to confront one of the hardest lessons for anyone who dedicates their life to helping others:You can care deeply. You can show up. You can give someone everything you know how to give. But you cannot control every outcome.And when Marc reveals that Eric later helped him through an eerily similar experience, the conversation takes an unexpected and deeply personal turn.š AVAILABLE TODAY: Beyond the Shadows: A Search for METhe timing of this episode couldnāt be better.

| 8/15/26 | Learning to Trust Yourself Again | Amy Lenius on Self-Worth, Self-Belief & Growth | Episode 32 | What happens when you stop doubting yourself and finally learn to trust your own voice, your own experiences, and your own ability to create change?In Episode 32 of Rebuild & Fulfill, Kelsey Dunbar and Marc Rogala sit down with Amy Lenius, Director of Group Coaching at Next Level University, professional speaker, coach, and event MC, for a powerful conversation about self-worth, self-belief, self-trust, consistency, chronic illness, personal development, identity, and creating lasting change.Amy's journey toward helping others began with her own struggle.After years of living with endometriosis and chronic illness, Amy experienced surgeries, medications, pain, and times when she felt unheard by the medical system. Eventually, she realized she needed to become an active participant in her own health and learn to advocate for herself.Years later, that self-trust was tested again when Amy repeatedly sought medical help for pain she knew was different. After initially being sent home, further investigation ultimately revealed an internal bleed requiring emergency surgery.She knew something wasn't right. Learning to trust herself mattered.That journey helped shape a philosophy Amy now brings to her coaching and personal development work: lasting transformation isn't simply about knowing more. It's about developing the internal foundation that allows you to actually change.Amy shares her Three Gears of Success:Self-Worth. Self-Belief. Consistency.We explore the difference between self-worth and self-belief, why confidence is often built through action rather than waiting to feel ready, and how keeping small promises to yourself can gradually rebuild trust in who you are and what you're capable of becoming.We also discuss:⢠Rebuilding self-trust after difficult experiences⢠Self-advocacy and learning to listen to yourself⢠Self-worth vs. self-belief⢠Why motivation alone doesn't create lasting change⢠Building consistency through small, sustainable habits⢠Breaking the all-or-nothing mindset⢠Perfectionism and personal growth⢠Identity and behavior change⢠Creating success that actually feels fulfilling⢠Why knowing what to do isn't the same as consistently doing itAmy's message is a powerful reminder that personal growth doesn't require changing everything overnight.Sometimes rebuilding starts much smaller:Trust yourself again. Keep one promise to yourself. Then build from there.If you've ever struggled with self-doubt, confidence, consistency, self-worth, or trusting yourself enough to make a change, this episode of Rebuild & Fulfill is for you.šļø Episode 32: Learning to Trust Yourself Again | Amy Lenius on Self-Worth, Self-Belief & GrowthConnect with Amy Lenius:Instagram: @amyleniusFacebook: Amy LeniusNext Level University: Group Coaching#SelfWorth #SelfBelief #PersonalGrowth #SelfTrust #RebuildAndFulfill | 1h 10m 43s | ||||||
| 8/12/26 | Amputee Firefighter Battles PTSD & Rebuilds His Life | Darren Richardson | Episode 31 | What happens when a firefighter, paramedic, and amputee who spent years helping other people through their worst moments realizes he needs help himself?In Episode 31 of Rebuild & Fulfill, Kelsey Dunbar sits down with former firefighter and paramedic Darren Richardson for a powerful conversation about PTSD, amputation, mental health, resilience, identity, addiction, and rebuilding your life after adversity.Darren's story of resilience began at just 13 years old, when a massive boulder crushed his foot during a hiking accident. Doctors initially believed he might lose his leg. He ultimately lost two toes and was told he may never rock climb or ski again.Three months later, he was rock climbing. By that winter, he was skiing and racing again.That experience helped shape a mindset Darren would need again decades later.Darren went on to spend nearly 20 years as a firefighter and paramedic, a career he loved so deeply that being a firefighter became part of his identity. But years of traumatic calls began taking their toll. PTSD, depression, alcohol, family struggles, and eventually leaving the fire service sent Darren into one of the darkest periods of his life.Despite years of helping other people, Darren didn't initially recognize PTSD in himself. At rock bottom, with his family at risk and his life unraveling, he finally sought professional help.Darren says walking into a therapist's office was harder than running into a burning building.But asking for help became the beginning of his rebuild.Then life tested him again.While training to return to the fire service, complications from his original injury resulted in a transmetatarsal amputation, removing part of his foot. Once again, Darren was told there were things he might never do again, including running, jumping, and surfing.Once again, he challenged those limitations.Just three months after his amputation, Darren was wake surfing with his daughters on Father's Day. Today, he runs, mountain bikes, trains, and uses everything he's experienced to help others overcome their own challenges.Today Darren is the founder of Ashes to Ascent Coaching, where he works as a mindset, resilience, and mental performance coach, with a particular passion for helping first responders, veterans, amputees, and people rebuilding after adversity.In this conversation, we explore PTSD in first responders, losing your identity after leaving a career, alcohol and depression, the courage to ask for help, rebuilding after amputation, resilience and mental performance, changing destructive habits, therapy versus coaching, and why other people don't get to determine the limits of your future.One of Darren's most powerful lessons is also one of the simplest:Don't let somebody else set your limits.Your past may explain your story, but it never has to define your future.Connect with Darren Richardson:Ashes to Ascent Coachingš ashestoascent.comš§ [email protected] to Rebuild & Fulfill for more real conversations about resilience, mental health, overcoming adversity, personal growth, and what it takes to rebuild your life and create greater fulfillment.#PTSD #Amputee #Firefighter #Resilience #RebuildAndFulfill | 43m 04s | ||||||
| 8/10/26 | The Transformation Gap Summit | Why Weāre Building Something Different | Episode 30 | What happens when you know what you need to doābut still struggle to actually do it?That's The Transformation Gap: the space between knowing what needs to change and being able to create real, lasting change in your life.And it's the idea behind The Transformation Gap Summit (TTGS).In this special episode of Rebuild & Fulfill, Kelsey Dunbar and Marc Rogala explore why personal transformation can be so difficultāeven when we already have the knowledge. From mindset and habits to health, relationships, business, career, identity, recovery, and personal growth, the Transformation Gap can show up almost anywhere.So how do we close it?That's the question behind TTGS.The Transformation Gap Summit will bring together dozens of speakers with different backgrounds, experiences, and approaches to transformationābecause sometimes the breakthrough isn't learning something completely new. Sometimes it's hearing the right idea, from the right person, in a way that finally clicks.You'll also get a first look at The Gap, a new series of short Rebuild & Fulfill episodes introducing speakers from The Transformation Gap Summit.These brief conversations will help you meet the speakers, understand why they joined TTGS, hear what the Transformation Gap means through their lens, and discover which Summit sessions you don't want to miss.Because knowing what to do and actually doing it aren't the same thing.Sometimes you already know what needs to change.You just haven't discovered how to make that change stick.And sometimes...that's where transformation starts.#TransformationGap #TransformationGapSummit #PersonalGrowth #PersonalTransformation #LastingChange | 13m 59s | ||||||

| 8/5/26 | The Weight of "If Only": Letting Go of the Regret That Keeps You Stuck | How many times have you replayed a conversation, a decision, or a moment in your life wondering⦠"If only?"Regret has a way of convincing us that we're responsible for outcomes we could never fully control. Left unchecked, those "if onlys" become emotional weight that keeps us stuck.In this episode of Rebuild & Fulfill, Kelsey Dunbar sits down with attorney, keynote speaker, and creator of the Regret to Resilience Method, Stephanie Renner, for a powerful conversation about overcoming regret, healing after loss, mental health, self-forgiveness, and building resilience.After the devastating loss of her 18-year-old son, Jordan, Stephanie found herself replaying every decision, questioning every choice, and putting herself on trial. Through that journey, she discovered that healing isn't about finding a way backāit's about finding a way forward.Together, Kelsey and Stephanie explore:⢠Why regret becomes so difficult to let go of⢠The weight of the "if onlys" and how to release them⢠Why your worth is not determined by the outcome⢠The difference between moving on and moving forward⢠How to stop prosecuting yourself and begin rebuilding your life⢠The connection between grief, guilt, shame, and personal growthWhether you're navigating the loss of a loved one, the end of a relationship, a career setback, or simply carrying the weight of past decisions, this conversation offers practical tools, hope, and a path toward emotional healing, resilience, and renewed purpose.Connect with Stephanie Renner:š https://StephanieRennerSpeaks.comš Free Regret to Resilience Guide: https://StephanieRennerSpeaks.com/podcastofferIf this episode encouraged you, please like, subscribe, and share it with someone who needs to hear this message.Because your worth was never determined by the outcome.#RebuildAndFulfill #StephanieRenner #Regret #Resilience #Healing #MentalHealth #SelfForgiveness #PersonalGrowth #GriefSupport #Mindset #Purpose #Podcast | 45m 11s | ||||||
