  • In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend Heidi Rose, a woman whose story will move you, stretch you, and break you open in all the ways that matter. Heidi lost her husband, Jason, to brain cancer, and the journey there was anything but simple. She opens up about the heartbreaking transformation she witnessed as cancer took over, not just his body, but parts of their shared life. We talk about the night he passed, how their children processed it, and what it means to grieve, rebuild, and keep living.

    But this conversation goes deeper than loss. Heidi speaks about her healing through trauma, through childhood abuse, and through unconventional paths like EMDR, Al-Anon, and plant medicine. She talks about finding her voice, regaining peace, and learning that real love sometimes means letting go.

    This episode is for anyone who's walked through pain they never thought they'd survive. It's for those navigating grief, complex family dynamics, or simply trying to find meaning when life doesn’t go to plan.

    You’ll walk away from this episode changed. I know I did.

    This is grief. This is healing. This is the Roller Coaster.

  • This one’s personal. In this episode, I sit down with Greg O’Gallagher, founder of Kinobody, fitness expert, and one of the most driven men I’ve ever met, for a raw and honest conversation about legacy, loss, and finding your purpose. Greg opens up about the profound impact his father, Michael O’Gallagher, had on his life before losing him to leukemia at a young age. From building Canada’s largest privately owned real estate company to shaping the mindset Greg carries today, his father’s influence lives on in every rep, every goal, and every moment Greg chooses discipline over ease.

    We talk about grief, growth, and how those pivotal childhood moments still fuel the fire today. Greg also shares how fitness became his outlet for processing trauma, how fasting and breath work changed his life, and the exact framework he uses to stay in peak shape year-round.

    If you’ve ever lost someone too soon or wondered how to stay grounded in your purpose when life hits hard, this conversation is for you.

  • In this episode of The Roller Coaster Podcast, I sat down with someone whose story shook me to my core, Bruce Pitcher. You might know him from Extreme Weight Loss, but trust me, that’s just the surface.

    Bruce’s journey is one of the most raw and powerful I’ve ever heard. From surviving childhood sexual abuse by his own father, who was later convicted and imprisoned, to living through years of silence, shame, and suicidal thoughts, Bruce opens up about the pain, the survival mode, and the uphill battle to rebuild his life.

    But this is not a story of defeat. It’s one of redemption. Bruce lost over 200 pounds, built a coaching empire, became a father, and, more than anything, reclaimed his identity. In this conversation, he shares the emotional moment his suicide attempt failed and how that “failure” saved his life.

    If you’ve ever felt broken, unseen, or stuck in your past, this episode is a reminder that belief, especially when it’s hard to hold onto, is the most powerful thing you can have.

    This one is heavy. It’s honest. And it just might change how you see yourself.

  • This conversation left me speechless.

    Bryan Wood isn’t just another guy with a “comeback story.” He’s a man who spiraled from elite MMA fighter to opioid addiction, heroin use, and prison time, and somehow rebuilt a life that most would’ve thought was lost forever.

    In this episode, Bryan opens up about how one back injury became the first domino that led to a full-blown opioid addiction, prescription fraud, and eventually a prison sentence. We talked about how addiction hijacks your brain, the terrifying power of withdrawal, and what it really takes to rebuild your life after you’ve lost everything, including your marriage, your career, and your freedom.

    But this isn’t just a story of destruction. It’s a story of radical accountability, hard-earned healing, and hope.

    Bryan spent four years behind bars and used that time to reinvent who he was from the inside out. He journaled every day, wrote newspaper articles, created curriculum for inmates, and faced his darkest truths head-on.

    This is one of the most raw, redemptive, and human conversations I’ve ever had. If you’re struggling, or know someone who is, please listen. Bryan’s story might just be the lifeline you or they need.

We talk about the realities of the U.S.-Mexico border, far beyond what the mainstream media portrays. It’s not just about illegal immigration; it’s about cartels operating with no regard for human life, smuggling drugs, and committing unspeakable crimes on American soil.

In a harrowing, gut-wrenching encounter, Brickman was attacked in the dead of night—stabbed seven times while he slept beside his pregnant wife. The intruder had broken in with the intent to rob their home, but what followed was a fight for survival that tested Brickman’s strength, resilience, and will to protect his family.

But beyond the trauma and pain, this story is also about healing. Brickman takes us through his long road to recovery, both physically and emotionally, and shares his powerful perspective on resilience and the strength it takes to move forward.

  • On this episode of The Rollercoaster Podcast, we are honored to have Chris Hilken as our guest. Chris is the Senior Pastor at College Ave Church in San Diego, a role he stepped into in 2023 after a decade of impactful service at North Coast Church as a teaching pastor and leader of the young adult ministry. In addition to his pastoral work, Chris is a trained apologist and a professor of theology and apologetics for Summit Bible College, equipping others to engage in thoughtful and meaningful discussions about faith. His journey is one of profound faith, resilience, and a passion for sharing the transformative power of the gospel.

    Chris's story is both inspiring and heart-wrenching. He married his college sweetheart, Paige, and together they built a beautiful family of five children in under seven years. However, their love story took a devastating turn in 2021 when Paige faced a catastrophic medical diagnosis that led to a battle with mental health challenges, tragically ending in her taking her own life. This unimaginable loss forced Chris to step back from ministry for a year as he grieved and dedicated himself to healing and supporting his children. His time away brought a renewed depth to his understanding of faith, grief, and the complexities of life’s struggles.

    Returning to ministry, Chris brings with him a deeper sense of empathy and a profound passion for the gospel. He now approaches his role with a unique perspective, having personally wrestled with the tough questions and raw emotions that can accompany faith in challenging times.
