The Resilience Factor With Adrienne Richardson podcast

1:00:16

In this episode of The Resilience Factor Podcast, I’m joined by Amy Post. Nearly a decade ago, life for Amy, her husband and 2 kids was going well. But her world was turned upside down when her daughter was diagnosed with malignant liver cancer at just 3 years old. She took on the job of becoming an advocate for her daughter’s treatment as she underwent a liver transplant, several rounds of chemotherapy, infusions, transfusions and stent placements. Despite this incredibly painful and uncertain time for her family, Amy fought for improvements in the hospital system and remained hopeful for her daughter’s life. In this episode, Amy shares how leaning into discomfort helped her navigate such a difficult time and how the power of perspective and living in the moment gave her the strength to show up every day. If you or someone you know is going through a difficult health battle, I know her story will fill you with hope and faith for the future. ABOUT AMY Amy Post worked in medical sales for twenty years and has recently moved into the author and podcaster space. She became an advocate for her daughter when she was diagnosed with malignant liver cancer at 3 years old. Through this experience, she found the strength and the ability to advocate for herself and others where she initially wouldn’t have thought possible. She has since made it her mission to create supportive community groups in order to encourage, uplift, and inspire others who have gone through traumatic situations. The courage and determination it takes to go through the valley of death is all too real. She is the mother of two amazing children, a son and a daughter, both teens, and has been a wife to the most supportive and incredible husband for over sixteen years. Amy finds peace when spending time with God in the outdoors. She enjoys kayaking, hiking, running, biking, or simply being outside. She says that family time can’t be recreated and is the most valuable time we have. In the next phases of life, Amy dives into helping others create the person they want to be but haven’t taken the leap due to challenges holding them back. Amy’s mantra is to Invest in YOU! Life is what you make of it. Amy lives every day to the fullest because life is precious and unpredictable. Stop at nothing to chase your dreams! The cost of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it.

Growing up Justin was an athletic, but overweight kid who had an immense joy and love for sports. As he entered his teenage years and started training for hockey, he began losing weight and received a lot of applause and recognition from his peers, instead of the usual criticism and bullying he had been experiencing. These positive affirmations about his appearance led Justin to a near fatal battle with anorexia, depriving his body of proper nutrition for years in an effort to avoid gaining back the weight. During our conversation Justin shares many valuable and meaningful lessons he’s learned on his journey from anorexia and how he found strength in vulnerability. We talk about everything from realizing your self-worth, when to trust others, overcoming insecurity, doubt, the power behind taking ownership and the freedom that comes from speaking up for what you believe in. Today Justin coaches NHL stars, Fortune 500 executives and entrepreneurs looking for holistic health solutions to improve their lives. This is one of my favorite episodes so far, he shares so many incredible lessons we can all learn from - you don’t want to miss this one. ABOUT JUSTIN After completing his MS in Sports Performance and Human Biology, Justin sought out post-graduate work in functional medicine. His 15-year career as a performance director in the NHL and NCAA, prepared Justin Roethlingshoefer for entrepreneurship after realizing that the holistic health solutions he had found a personalized solution to was just not an athlete problem but a human problem. He founded Own It in 2021 and has become a multiple seven-figure coaching company that applies this health and performance philosophy to clients ranging from NHL stars, to Fortune 500 executives, to entrepreneurs looking to take that next step and realize true health. From sleeping better to mental clarity, reduced anxiety, and increase in energy, he and his team have been providing n=1 solutions for over 10 thousand people the last 2 years.

Chris Webb: When Speaking Up Was the Difference Between Life & Death 54:09

54:09

Police Officers witness the worst of humanity every day. They hardly have time to process some of the horrific things they’ve just seen before they’re off to their next call. Over time, in order to cope with the evil they interact with, they shove down the trauma deep inside and never talk about it. In fact, talking about it isn’t safe, because they could lose their jobs if their peers or boss thinks they’re not mentally tough. So they find other ways to numb the feelings. Numb the pain. Numb the trauma. This doesn’t only happen to law enforcement. We all experience this in one way or another. Ignoring it doesn’t make it go away though. It continues to fester… until some day, you’re forced to face it. And by that time, it’s often ruined many parts of your life. If you’ve ever been afraid to speak up to a boss, a friend, or a spouse about an internal suffering that you’re carrying, I invite you to listen to this episode with Chris Webb. It just might set you free. ABOUT CHRIS Chris Webb was born in Dallas Texas and graduated Baylor University in 1994. In 1997 he joined the Dallas Police Department as a Patrol Officer and served in this role for 10 years. He continued his career as a SWAT Officer for another 10 years before retiring in 2007. Today he serves as a State Police Officer for the Texas Attorney General's Office in the Fugitive Apprehension Unit. He’s married to Judge Rainey Webb, Criminal Court Magistrate and they have 18 year old twins Gibson and Gabby. In 2019, he and his wife founded Righteous Oaks Retreats, a 3-day retreat for current and former law enforcement officers to seek counseling to combat the internal and external pressures of their profession.
