At 33 years old, Tatiana Miller suddenly lost feeling and movement in her legs, and was lying in a hospital bed. “I had four orthopedic surgeons tell me, ‘this is going to be your new normal’, and at that moment, I remember thinking, no, absolutely not. You're wrong”.
When it comes to her health, accepting the status quo has never been in the cards for Tatiana.As a teen, she saw multiple doctors to find help for her autoimmune disease and chronic pain. For years, she struggled to find answers, studying holistic medicine and practicing yoga, but her body kept degenerating, until one day, a bad fall left her paralyzed.
In this episode, Tatiana shares how her refusal to accept her doctor's prognosis and her journey to recovery inspired her to found RX for Life, a health consulting business that helps bridge the gap between Western healthcare and holistic medicine. At RX 4 Life, Tatiana helps her clients connect with what’s happening in their bodies, the ways that things like mental health and lifestyle could effect that, and how holistic medicine might help. It’s a fascinating discussion where we dive into how we approach healthcare and why it's critical that we rethink it.
About Tatiana Miller

Drawing from her experiences with Western healthcare, and her experience in psychology and holistic practices, her services aim to support individuals, especially those with high-stress jobs, those dealing with burnout and anxiety, and those living with chronic illnesses.

With this crucial election right around the corner, everyone at The Breakout agreed it’s a great time to re-share this interview with Maximina Juson, the director of the documentary, One Person, One Vote?
This is a beautiful film that examines America’s Electoral College Voting System, and who it really represents. The movie premiered in September on PBS and it's streaming now on the PBS app. Follow @1person1votedoc on IG, FB & TikTok to stay updated. To host or attend an in person screening visit onepersononevote.co. And of course, check out our interview with the amazing Maximina Juson.
Summary:
“The electoral college is a real pain point for the electorate. They don’t understand it, and they don’t know why we have it in the first place…So that’s why I made this film.” That’s how Maximina Juson explains her motivation for making the extraordinary, and necessary, new documentary, One Person, One Vote? It's a film that takes a closer look at something that lots of Americans rarely question: the electoral college voting system.If you’ve been listening to The Breakout for a while now, you’ll know that we love guests who question long-held systems or beliefs, and Maximina’s film does just that. One Person, One Vote? explores the electoral college’s not-so-equal representation and its racist origins rooted in protecting the power of slave owners. It’s a must-watch for anyone curious about our democracy. This episode originally dropped on Juneteenth, and we're rebroadcasting it right ahead of the 2024 American Elections - both are great moments to examine the realities of the system we use to elect our president.
In this episode, Maximina shares the perspective-shifting moments she had while making the documentary, especially her extraordinary experience when she found herself filming at the Capitol on January 6th, 2021.
About Maximina Juson
Maximina Juson is an award-winning filmmaker and founder of HUMovies, a film and video production company in Los Angeles. Her debut feature film, ONE PERSON, ONE VOTE? is a National Endowment for the Humanities grant recipient that world premiered at The 2024 Pan African Film Festival, taking home the Programmer's Award for Best Documentary Feature.See & Follow The Film!

The day has finally come! Friends…our book is officially launched! Join us on today’s episode as we celebrate the book, vacillate from excitement to nausea, and look back on the incredible guests on The Breakout who inspired it all.
One of our amazing guests once said, “all these rules that have been taught to us? They were not bargained for collectively. We did not actually agree to them”. She was actually talking about monogamy, but for us, that sentiment applies universally to every expectation we live by. It’s also a sentiment that serves as the starting point for our book, Whatever the Hell You Want. It’s a book about the unspoken expectations, the “I shoulds” that we live by, and the secret dreams we’ve tried to ignore. But it’s also a guide for seeing those stifling boxes for what they are, pushing back on expectations, making changes and embracing the life you (yes, you) really want.
We know a thing or two about transformations and we know they're not easy. So we wanted to write a practical guide to help people make the changes they are aching to make. And in this episode we're looking back on some of the truly remarkable guests that have broken out of boxes, blown our minds, and inspired us to write the book everyone needs so they can break out themselves.

Episode Summary:
Swimming has always been something that the black culture can do. Trust me, I've been to the Olympics. Team Nigeria, Team South Africa. It's a problem in the U.S. And it starts with the culture. We have to stop saying we don't swim. Yes. We. Do.
Olympic gold-medal winning swimmer Cullen Jones’ journey into the sport started with a near drowning when he was five-years old. The experience left him terrified of deep water – as soon as he couldn’t touch the floor he would panic. But his mother was adamant that her son learn how to swim and with incredible determination and against a lot of odds, Cullen became one of the fastest in the world.In this episode, Cullen takes us through his journey from being a kid scared to jump into the pool to facing racism at swim meets and going on to break a world record in swimming. He tells us about Brad the instructor who taught him to love swimming and about the time Serena Williams gave him a shout of encouragement before a big race. Cullen also gets candid about the barriers he faced as an African American swimmer, what he is doing now to change the swimming narrative in the Black community, and his mission to ensure underserved communities learn the life-saving skill of swimming.
About Cullen Jones:
Cullen Jones is a four time Olympic medalist and the first African American to break a world record in swimming. As a member of Team USA, he made history by helping break world records and winning gold in the 4x100m freestyle relay at the 2008 Beijing Olympics in what many say was the most exciting race in Olympic History. Off the pool deck, he is a passionate advocate for water safety. Cullen serves as an ambassador and board member of the USA Swimming Foundation and works with GoldFish Swim School to help make swimming lessons more accessible to underserved communities.Connect with Cullen:

When Trauma is Everywhere - Episode Summary:
“I had people say, ‘you still have your legs, what are you complaining about?’ It was the worst day of my life, and now people are feeling open to tell me that that experience doesn't count”.In 2013, two bombs exploded at the Boston Marathon, a short distance from where Manya Chylinski stood, cheering on the runners. Three people were killed that day, and hundreds were wounded, and while Manya had no physical injuries, she was one of countless bystanders who suffered incredible trauma for years afterwards. As an invisible victim of the attack, Manya was offered no support for her PTSD and zero validation of her experience. That's when she realized how pervasive and disregarded trauma really is, so she decided to change that.
In this episode, Manya shares her story of that terrifying day and why she left her career to start educating corporate audiences about compassionate, trauma informed leadership. Manya is on a mission to ensure that everyone is seen and supported in the place where we spend most of our waking hours: the workplace.

“When you are a bully, when you're, when you're rich or powerful or influenced and you think you can get away with it, that's really when I come alive”.Alreen Haeggquist has done something incredible with something incredibly awful. As a child, she endured years of physical and sexual abuse at the hands of her father.

In this episode, Alreen takes us through her breakout from victim to influential advocate. She tells us about the powerful book she wrote about her journey, and how confronting her father made it easy to take on one of today's biggest bullies, Donald Trump.

She’s also a professional public speaker; her Ted Talk is one of the top ten most viewed talks with an impressive 30+ million views.

“It was easy for me to say to people ‘your stories are valuable’ but when I would turn that lens on myself, I was tongue-tied and embarrassed.” As the founder of Wonderwell Press, a non-fiction publishing company, Maggie Langrick has been a champion of writers for years; in fact she was a huge influence in the development of Keri and Kelly’s upcoming book, Whatever the Hell You Want (coming in October!).
But while Maggie was helping everyone else find their voice, she was actively repressing her own, because, as she tells us, she felt like it was “weird…in the wrong way”. So when a cancer diagnosis derailed her ambitious business plans, Maggie was forced to finally slow down. And that’s when she realized that she actually had a lot to say, if she would only stop discarding her ideas before she’d even explored them.
Today, Maggie is a writer, a podcast host, and a writing coach who helps people dig into their own creativity and discover the incredible power of losing the shame and telling their own stories. In this episode Maggie tells how she confronted her self-judgement and learned to listen to her own voice. She also shares what a “full-body ick” is really telling you.
About Maggie Langrick
Maggie Langrick is a writer, public speaker, media entrepreneur, and host of The Selfish Gift podcast. She is publisher at Wonderwell Press, which she founded in 2013. A hybrid publishing company, Wonderwell Press publishes nonfiction books that help, heal and inspire, in categories ranging from psychology and health, personal development, spirituality and motivational memoirs. She is a former member of the Board of Directors at IBPA, the Independent Book Publishers Association. Maggie is also the creator of The Underwire, a weekly newsletter publication on Substack.In her teens and early twenties, Maggie was an award-winning film and television actress, starring in films such as My American Cousin and Harry and the Hendersons. She still can’t resist playing the room for laughs whenever she gets the chance. Maggie lives in Los Angeles.

“You don't have to let your past define you. You can change in a heartbeat”. Dr. Cindy Starke is a firm believer that it’s never too late to begin again. Cindy is a physician and geneticist, and at mid-life she made the bold decision to leave her full-time hospital position and top-end salary to found a coaching program dedicated to empowering women at that tricky second-half-of-life milestone.
Despite huge pushback from her partner and a lot of fear and trepidation, Cindy made the leap. She tore down societal boundaries to reinvent her life, and now she helps her clients do the same. She helps them explore what’s been holding them back, discover what they really want and then build that life from the ground up.
In this episode, Cindy tells us about her powerful breakout from that narrow idea of "the perfect life": The kids, the house, the husband, the job...and the pay check of everyone else's dreams. We hear all about her ups and downs including when she made an Iron Man attempt, failed, and then went back for more! Cindy also shares the big steps she took to live the life she never knew she could have but always knew she wanted. It’s an honest and very real conversation about what change really takes, and how to push past the fear and go for it.
About Dr. Cindy
Dr. Cindy Starke is a Board Certified Physician in Internal Medicine with a PhD in Genetics who spent the last 13 years as a Hospitalist helping hundreds of thousands of patients get their lives back on track.

“The electoral college is a real pain point for the electorate. They don’t understand it, and they don’t know why we have it in the first place…So that’s why I made this film.” That’s how Maximina Juson explains her motivation for making the extraordinary, and necessary, new documentary, One Person, One Vote? It's a film that takes a closer look at something that lots of Americans rarely question: the electoral college voting system.
If you’ve been listening to The Breakout for a while now, you’ll know that we love guests who question long-held systems or beliefs, and Maximina’s film does just that. One Person, One Vote? explores the electoral college’s not-so-equal representation and its racist origins rooted in protecting the power of slave owners. It’s a must-watch for anyone curious about our democracy. This episode drops on Juneteenth and it couldn't be a better time to examine the realities of the system we use to elect our president.
In this episode, we talk to Maximina about how her multi hyphenated career as a musician, user experience designer and filmmaker helped her take on this difficult subject. She also shares the perspective-shifting moments she had while making the documentary, especially her extraordinary experience when she found herself filming at the Capitol on January 6th, 2021.
About Maximina Juson
Maximina Juson is an award-winning filmmaker and founder of HUMovies, a film and video production company in Los Angeles. Her debut feature film, ONE PERSON, ONE VOTE? is a National Endowment for the Humanities grant recipient that world premiered at The 2024 Pan African Film Festival, taking home the Programmer's Award for Best Documentary Feature. Maximina Juson was Consulting Producer (and Additional Camera) for Mama Bears, which premiered at SXSW in 2022 —a short version of the film was commissioned by the ACLU and won an Emmy for 2019 Outstanding Documentary Short and two Webby Awards. In 2018, she produced Harlem Rising for The Harlem Children’s Zone. Juson also shot, produced and directed a video web series for The Washtenaw ID Project, an organization that helps disenfranchised communities and individuals obtain a valid government-issued ID in Washtenaw County, Michigan.

“When I was trying to get sober, I couldn't find anything that had a sense of humor, and so I guess I at some point was like, well, then I have to write the thing that I can't find”. Sean Daniels is the hilarious, warm, and honest writer behind the hugely successful play, The White Chip, a comedy about addiction. Since its debut in 2019, The White Chip has had rave reviews, sold out shows in New York, and pulled in big producing partners like Hank Azaria, Jason Biggs, and John Larroquette.

May is Mental Health Awareness month, and in this episode we're thrilled to shine a light on Sonia Kahlon and Kathleen Killen who host the fantastic podcast Sisters in Sobriety. We’re also talking about Everblume, an entirely unique alcohol recovery support community founded by Sonia. If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, call or text 988 or chat 988lifeline.org.
“I was functioning at such a high level. I'm not going to refer to myself as an alcoholic. There's a stigma to that word”. Sonia Kahlon is a recovery coach and former addict who’d always known that "alcoholic" is a label that can sometimes stop people from getting help. But it wasn't until her marriage suddenly ended, and her recovery was put to the test, that she decided to build an alternative approach to recovery. Sonia was looking for consistency, and a place that embraced moderation, as well as total abstinence as legitimate goals. So she founded Everblume, an online support community that meets women wherever they are on their sobriety journey.
Sonia is also one half of the fantastic podcast, Sisters in Sobriety, which she hosts with her ex-sister-in-law, psychotherapist Kathleen Killen. Kathleen has also struggled with substance abuse, so when Sonia asked her to co-host the show it seemed like a great way to share some tools for change.
This episode is a quadruple threat of co-hosts on co-hosts, with these fun, amazing women who never stop teasing each other, even while they're dropping powerful insights on recovery.
About Sonia and Kathleen
Kathleen Killen is a registered psychotherapist (qualifying) and certified coach based in Ontario, Canada. To find out more about Kathleen’s work, check out her website.
Sonia Kahlon is a recovery coach and former addict. She grappled with high-functioning alcohol use disorder throughout her life, before getting sober in 2016. Sonia is now the founder of EverBlume, a digital tool that offers a unique approach to alcohol recovery support.

“Anger is telling us something. It's often telling us that something isn't right or that a boundary is being violated”. Cara Tuttle is a lawyer, consultant, and educator focused on addressing sexual assault and harassment in higher education, and she wants us to explore our anger as a key tool in assertiveness training. After years of working on a university campus, Cara found that assertiveness was a major struggle for women of all ages, and that has a lot to do with how women have been raised, and how complicated anger can be for women in particular. As Cara explains, “a lot of the women [I work with] have been raised to be well behaved. They've been raised to be pleasant, which delays them in asserting their boundaries.”
In this episode, Cara talks about her important book Drowning In Timidity: Women, Politeness, and the Power of Assertive Living, that she wrote to address the questions she heard from women over and over about how to speak up for themselves. Plus, we do a deep dive into anger, assertiveness and boundaries, to explore why anger is a good thing and why it’s so complicated for women; the small things you can do to create big change; and we even talk about the life-changing power of quality sexual education.
About Cara Tuttle
Cara Tuttle is a speaker, author, consultant, and activist-minded educator with over twenty years' experience working in higher education. Cara is the author of Drowning in Timidity: Women, Politeness, and the Power of Assertive Living and has contributed chapters to various books and publications, including The Future Female Leader: Preparing Girls and Women to Lead the World, The Female Code: A Woman's Book for Empowerment and Confidence, The Professional Woman: Pivoting to the New Normal, and Raising Daughters:Raising Healthy Children in an Unhealthy World.

“One of the jokes I have in coaching is, the surefire way to kill passion is to build a business around it, or marry it”. Monique Allen will tell you that entrepreneurship is it’s own special kind of trauma, and it needs a special kind of business coaching.
Monique is a professional gardener who has spent almost four decades in the industry. Over that time, running her own landscaping business she began to see a crucial need amongst her fellow creatives and trade-based entrepreneurs: they had started a business because they loved their work, and then suddenly they became managers and stopped actually doing that work that they loved. So she developed a fascinating coaching method that focuses on the unique struggles of trade-based entrepreneurs.
“Nature is a system”, Monique tells us. “It's the living and non-living things in connection with each other, with the overlay of energy and human interaction. This isn't all that much different than how businesses are formed”. In this episode, Monique shares the story behind “Lifescaping”, her coaching method inspired by the elements of all healthy ecosystems. Lifescaping helps business owners push beyond their barriers and thrive as entrepreneurs.
About Monique Allen
Monique founded The Garden Continuum - a regenerative landscape design/build and fine gardening firm celebrating its 25th year in business. She is the creator of the Life-Scape Method for land development. As the Lifescape Coach, she's interpreted this simple method into a system to teach service-business entrepreneurs how to develop more satisfying ownership experiences.

“I was expecting to feel a certain way about the accomplishments. But it wasn't fulfilling, and I couldn't understand why.” Christine Job was a talented law student and the first Black female president of her class. From an early age, her family had expected her to go into law, but despite her achievements she was terribly unsatisfied.
Christine’s early professional life was a series of fits and starts. Big opportunities kept leading to dead ends until one day she had a nagging feeling that would not go away. A friend had told Christine about the Camino de Santiago, an intense 800 kilometre pilgrimage across northern Spain. Hundreds of thousands of people walk the Camino each year, all of them seeking clarity. To Christine, it sounded horrible, but feeling lost about what was next, something in her told her to head to Spain.
This is our second of two episodes on The Breakout where we look at the transformative power of the Camino de Santiago. On this episode, Christine shares her Camino experience, her winding road to fulfillment and all the hard lessons along the way.

One night, at the tail end of a vacation in Europe, Kelli Field suddenly hit a wall. “I just started crying and I just told my husband, I can't do it anymore”. After decades of working in a high earning, high stress career that took a huge toll on her health, she realized she couldn’t go back to work. Something deep inside her had finally said no. “My life had all the trappings of the American dream. Big house, expensive cars, long commute. I did everything I thought I was supposed to do to be happy…but it was like a suit of clothing that no longer fit, and something had to give”.
With no idea what to do next, Kelly followed a longtime goal to walk the Camino de Santiago, a grueling 800 kilometer pilgrimage across northern Spain. It was a walk that laid bare everything that needed to change, and kick-started an amazing journey of personal growth.
On this episode, Kelly takes us through the profound experience of the Camino and the extraordinary choice she and her husband made once she returned. It’s the story of jumping off a cliff, without knowing there’d be a net at the bottom.This is the first of two episodes where we look at the stories of Camino walkers and how this epic pilgrimage changes lives.

“There’s this really old, really crap story that how we got here is about what the guys did. And women were just like some side character behind a hill, just like pounding some tubers, saying, ‘Oh, sorry guys. I see you're busy. I'm just gonna build the future of our species in my actual body’.” That’s how the brilliant and hilarious Cat Bohannon introduces the idea behind her New York Times bestselling book, Eve: How the Female Body Drove 200 Million Years of Human Evolution. Ten years in the making, and making a huge splash internationally, the book is a fascinating, myth-busting tour of biological evolution that re-examines everything we think we know about the human body by placing women at the center of it all.
In honor of International Women's Day on March 8th, we’re thrilled to talk with Cat about her boundary-breaking book, which puts the female body in the foreground of biological research. “ It's not that there's a sexist cabal saying, ha ha! We're gonna understudy females”, she tells us, “It's that there’s this pre-existing idea that ovaries don't matter”. Cat shares how there’s a long history of female bodies being excluded from medical, evolutionary and biological research, and why that matters for everyone.
The interview also dives into Cat’s sci-fi movie inspiration for the book, how female figures in evolution were key to the humans of today, why the “male norm” in biological research developed in the first place, and how change in the scientific community is happening…slowly: “paradigm shifts are hard…that’s the hardest thing to break out of. A paradigm shift is the biggest thing there is”. Don’t miss this eye-opening discussion that looks at the human body from a whole different vantage point.
