In this raw and unfiltered episode of the Unbreakable Podcast, Kait Dinunzio and Josie Cable dive deep into what it truly means to look through the rearview mirror with gratitude.

We aren’t talking about toxic positivity.

We are talking about the brutal, forge-tested reality of using your darkest days to find your voice, build self-trust, and lead your life, whether you are a mom building a household, an entrepreneur navigating uncertainty, or anyone wrestling with hard times.

Leadership isn't a corporate title. It’s how you handle the pressure when there is no roadmap. When life gets heavy, traditional talk therapy isn’t always enough. We debate alternative, physical outlets for emotional regulation and stress... like throwing punches in a boxing ring... and how to actually process trauma when you have a family or a business relying on you to stay strong.

We also break down how society conditions us to accept bad habits through the famous "Monkey and Ladder" experiment and the history of the QWERTY keyboard.

Discover why human systems repeat what is broken, why the people around you might subconsciously reject your growth, and how to stop looking outside yourself for validation.

Stop waiting for the fire to end. It’s time to look back with clarity, stand in your depth, and build a legacy that lasts.

After resonating with thousands of listeners during his first appearance, Earl returns to talk about addiction recovery, homelessness, trauma, burnout, emotional regulation, Indigenous healing, purpose, and the growing demand for recovery support across Canada.

From sleeping under a bridge during active addiction to helping shape recovery housing and support systems nationwide, Earl’s story is living proof that healing and transformation are possible.

In this episode, Kait Dinunzio and Earl dive into:

• Trauma and disconnection from self
• Why purpose changes everything
• Burnout in leadership and service work
• Indigenous culture, healing, and reconnection

One of the most powerful moments:

“One drink will kill me. One drink will ruin everything that I have worked so hard for.”

This episode isn’t just about recovery.

It’s about rebuilding identity, reconnecting to self, and proving that your past does not define your future.

In this episode of the Unbreakable Podcast, Kait and Josie break down the mindset shift from trauma to responsibility, and what it really takes to move forward without denying your past.

This episode dives deep into trauma healing, emotional regulation, burnout, self-awareness, and personal growth, while answering a powerful listener question: At what point do you stop blaming your past and start taking responsibility for who you are now?

If you feel stuck in old patterns, overwhelmed by life, or unsure how to heal and grow at the same time, this conversation gives you a real, practical perspective on healing vs responsibility, mindset shifts, and building resilience.

Drawing directly from Unbreakable, Kait references Chapter 23: “Freud vs. Adler: My Life After the Couch”, explaining the difference between being shaped by your past vs choosing how you respond to it.

This is not surface-level motivation. This is about doing the work.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:

• When to stop blaming your past and take responsibility
• How trauma affects behavior, mindset, and emotional triggers
• The difference between healing and staying stuck
• Emotional regulation tools for real life
• How to break negative patterns and rewire your mindset
• Building resilience, confidence, and self-leadership
• How to grow without losing yourself in the process

WHO THIS IS FOR:

This episode is for anyone interested in:
trauma recovery, mental health, personal development, self-improvement, emotional intelligence, resilience, leadership, mindset coaching, and healing from past experiences.

In this episode of the Unbreakable Podcast, Kait Dinunzio and Josie Cable unpack the hidden emotional crash that can follow success, the reality of burnout after a big push, and why growth often demands more from you than ambition alone.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by ambition, stuck in survival mode, or frustrated by how hard it is to keep going after a huge accomplishment, this episode is for you.

Inside this episode:

burnout after achieving a major goal

how to recognize emotional and physical burnout

what triggers reveal about your lived experience

nervous system responses, memory, and emotional regulation

why self-awareness matters in leadership and personal growth

In this episode, Kait and Josie get real about the messiness of navigating work and life, the pressure, the people, and the choices that either drain you or build you.

They break down the realities of anxiety, stepping into new opportunities, and what it really means to cope with change without losing yourself. From work-life balance that actually works (not the corporate BS version), to time and focus management, to setting boundaries that stick. This is the stuff that separates surviving from thriving.

The conversation dives into the power of human interaction, why how you treat people is your legacy, and how saying yes to the right opportunities can completely shift your trajectory. Kait and Josie also lay out why continuous learning, presence on platforms like LinkedIn, and knowing your non-negotiables aren’t just “nice to haves”, they’re the keys to building a career and a life you’re proud of.

At its core, this episode is about choosing growth in the chaos, sharpening your axe before you swing, and stepping into a version of yourself that people can’t ignore.

When do confidence and resilience actually form, and how do you rebuild them as an adult?

In this Unbreakable banter episode, Kait and Josie unpack the science behind formative years (0-5 for resilience, 4-12 for self-confidence), why we get stuck in “this is just who I am,” and how to cross the bridge from Freud (past explains you) to Adler (you choose what it means).

You’ll hear practical, zero-fluff tools: how Kait handles stage nerves (hello, sweaty palms + Singapore talk), why your reticular activating system (RAS) only sees what you focus on, and the small, boring habits that actually move mountains.

We also show the exact decks and prompts Kait uses with clients, affirmations, strategy cards (Sun Tzu), and reflective questions, to turn insight into action.

What you’ll learn:

The timeline of resilience (0–5) and self-confidence (4–12) and how to repair shaky foundations

Freud vs. Adler in plain English: stop reliving; start reframing

Fear ≠ fact: managing your amygdala and keeping your prefrontal cortex online

RAS 101: program your brain to notice what helps, not what harms

Micro-habits that compound (water, sleep, one honest conversation, one page of journaling)

Tools we use: affirmation prompts, The Art of War cards, We’re Not Really Strangers reflection deck

Boundaries vs. walls: how to give feedback, receive it, and keep relationships intact

Mentioned:

The Four Agreements (Don Miguel Ruiz)

Relentless & Winning (Tim Grover)

In this episode of the Unbreakable Podcast, Kait and Josie get brutally honest about healing, boundaries, and breaking cycles. From the weight of passed down trauma to the reality of toxic family ties, they explore what it means to set boundaries, choose your peace, and stop letting the past dictate your future. This isn’t about blame, it’s about ownership, healing, and creating your own version of a happy ending (even if it doesn’t look like the fairy tale you imagined).

Big Takeaways from this episode:

Waking up and chasing your passions is a gift, don’t take it for granted.

Trauma shows up in how we coach, lead, and parent.

Boundaries aren’t selfish, they’re survival.

You teach people how to treat you by what you allow.

Healing won’t always look like a “happy ending” and that’s okay.

Choosing yourself is the first step in creating your own ending.

Empathy is the antidote to shame.

Your actions will always expose your true priorities.

Not every relationship will meet your expectations and that’s freedom.

Self-awareness and conscious choices are the backbone of resilience.

Listener Q&A: “What if I want a relationship with my toxic parents?” Kait and Josie dive deep into the heartbreak, the shame, and the power of walking your own path.This episode is about taking back control, owning your choices, and building a life that reflects who you really are.

What happens when you reconnect to the language that raised your ancestors?

In this Unbreakable episode, Kait sits down with Brooklyn Neveu (Sturgeon Lake First Nation), educator, Indigenous Student Support Coordinator, and language champion, to unpack how language, culture, and community rebuild identity and mental health.

We talk about growing up urban and disconnected, the pull back to ceremony, and why access to Indigenous language isn’t “nice to have”.

It’s belonging, safety, and future-building. You’ll hear the real talk on lateral violence vs. lateral love, walking in two worlds (moccasin + high heel), and how humor keeps people alive in heavy spaces. We also dig into practical campus programming (powwow, round dance, feasts), the Blanket Exercise, and how to be an ally without being performative.

🪶 What You’ll Learn:

-Why Indigenous language revival is essential to reconciliation

-How reconnecting to ceremony heals generational trauma

-The emotional impact of the Blanket Exercise, and what true allyship looks like

-Finding balance “walking in two worlds” as a young Indigenous professional

-The role of humor, movement, and community in cultural wellness

-How language shapes belonging and self-worth

Leaders are under pressure. Competing priorities, nonstop meetings, inboxes on fire. So how do you give feedback to leadership without sounding disrespectful… or tanking trust?

In this episode, Kait and Josie break down a practical, humane playbook for high-stakes conversations: when to speak up, what to say, and how to say it so it lands.

We cover timing, tone, body language, emotional regulation, the “No–Feel–Do” framework, and why you should never deliver sensitive feedback by email.

We also talk “job hugging” (hanging on to roles in a tough market), The Four Agreements, and how to protect your peace while still showing up boldly.

You’ll learn:

Why delivery medium matters (and why email backfires)

In this powerful episode, Kait sits down with Earl Thiessen, Executive Director of Oxford House (Calgary), to talk about recovery, culture, and coming home to who you are. Earl shares his journey from homelessness and addiction to leadership, how reconnection to Cree culture, ceremony, and community transformed his life and now anchors Oxford House’s peer- and culturally-supported recovery housing.

You’ll hear about:

The moment a judge offered Earl a window of opportunity, and how he took it

Why pretreatment housing fills a deadly gap between detox and treatment

The medicine wheel in practice: emotional, spiritual, mental, and physical healing

The power of sweat lodge and what it means to “send the spirits home”

Honouring MMIWG and opening Red Woman House on Earl’s mother’s birthday

Being gifted 10 braids of sweetgrass and the feeling of “coming home” to Cree community

“Be the buffalo”: moving into the storm with courage, vulnerability, and service

Why this matters:

Addiction isolates; culture connects. Oxford House’s Indigenous healing homes show why belonging, ceremony, and time (no arbitrary discharge dates) are essential to breaking cycles and restoring families.

What does it actually mean to lead authentically, when work is chaotic, life hits hard, and your team needs you at your best?

In this Unbreakable episode, Kait reconnects with business leader and author Jennifer Jensen (“Developing Authentic Leaders”) to unpack practical, human leadership: telling the truth, knowing your triggers, and building teams that trust you without micromanaging.

Jen shares a raw story of surviving toxic leadership, burnout, and personal loss, and how counseling, insight, and boundaries rebuilt her leadership identity. Together, they dig into the tools that work: values assessments, simple “start small” coaching, accountability cues for stress behaviors, and reverse mentorship across seven working generations. You’ll hear why middle managers sit in the highest-risk pressure zone, and how to move into the top 3% of leaders by investing in self-awareness, clarity (vision/mission/values), and presence (be where your feet are).Rooted in the Unbreakable ethos (from the forthcoming book Unbreakable: From Abandonment to Abundance and the Strength to Lead), this conversation gives you honest, usable steps to lead yourself, your team, and your life.

What does real change look like when you’re tired of starting over?

In this powerful (and hilarious) episode of The Unbreakable Podcast, Kait sits down with  Alicia  , a creator whose vulnerability and humor have inspired hundreds of thousands to rethink what self-improvement really means.

From hitting 400lbs to creating a viral online movement built on accountability and authenticity, Alicia proves that resilience isn’t born in perfection, it’s built in the messy middle.

Together, Kait and Alicia unpack the mindset behind sustainable transformation, why kindness is a superpower, and how to silence the shame voice that’s kept you stuck.

What you’ll learn:

-The psychology of “what-if” fear, and how to move forward anyway

-Why vulnerability fuels consistency more than motivation ever could

-The truth about “non-scale victories” and why they matter most

-How self-talk shapes your reality (and how to rewrite the script)

-The neuroscience of habit formation, and how to make change stick

-Why kindness isn’t weakness, it’s a neurological strength

-How empathy and humor can rewire shame into self-belief

Try this today (pick one):

Write one kind thing you’ll say to yourself daily this week.

List your non-scale victories, energy, confidence, small wins.

Reach out to someone on their journey and tell them what you admire.

Leadership isn’t a ladder, it’s service. And sometimes, the best lessons in leadership don’t come from the boardroom. They come from the gym. In this episode, Kait and Josie explore how bodybuilding has shaped Kait’s leadership journey and communication style. From the discipline of training to the resilience built on stage, Kait shares how the athlete’s mindset translates into leading teams, building trust, and staying consistent when pressure hits.

Together, they dig into why “if service is beneath you, leadership is beyond you,” how chasing titles erodes credibility, and why the same consistency that builds muscle is what builds trust in leadership. This is about more than bodybuilding or business, it’s about the choices, boundaries, and communication habits that make you unbreakable.

What you’ll learn:

How bodybuilding discipline translates into leadership and trust

The trust equation in real life: credibility + reliability + connection = self-orientation

Why “chasing the next LinkedIn update” erodes team trust

Boundaries, communication, and stopping conflict before it becomes crisis

Coaching culture: yelling ≠ leadership (on the field or at work)

Why consistency in the gym mirrors consistency in leadership

“Actions express priorities” and “how you do one thing is how you do everything”
