    #201 - Jenna Righi - Links of Resilience: Turning Pain into Purpose Through Vulnerability & Connection

    In this unflinchingly honest episode of Mental Mentals, host Asekho sits down with Jenna Righi, founder of Link Jewelry, to dissect how raw vulnerability and brokenness can forge unbreakable resilience. Jenna unravels her journey from fleeing Florida after losing her father, battling isolation, and restarting life at 30 to creating a brand that transforms shattered bike chains—and shattered lives—into symbols of hope. Drawing parallels to Steven Bartlett’s grit and Chris Williamson’s psychological depth, they explore why admitting “I’m not okay” is the bravest step toward healing, how sharing stories rewires shame into strength, and why practicing gratitude isn’t cliché—it’s survival. Learn why Jenna’s “links” aren’t just jewelry but lifelines, how her blog amplifies silenced struggles (from fertility to suicide), and why balancing self-talk like you’d counsel a friend is non-negotiable. Whether you’re drowning in comparison traps or craving proof that pits do end, this episode blends tactical tools—meditation, community support, “bird’s-eye view” reframing—with the hard truth: healing isn’t linear, but connection is contagious. Rate, review, and share if it reminds you that your story—messy, broken, or just beginning—is someone else’s survival guide.

    #198 - Kenneth Kunken - Doctors Gave Him 0% Chance to Live Normally. His Secret? A Ramp. (You Won’t BELIEVE What Happened Next!)

    In this deeply inspiring episode of Mental Matters, we sit down with Kenneth Kunken, a trailblazer who transformed a life-altering spinal cord injury into a lifelong mission of advocacy and empowerment. At 20, Ken became a quadriplegic after breaking his neck in college—a time when accessibility was an afterthought and societal assumptions about disability ran deep. Ken opens up about navigating an inaccessible world decades before the Americans with Disabilities Act, confronting stereotypes that conflated his physical limitations with cognitive ones, and the unwavering family support that became his "arms and legs." From battling university administrations for basic accommodations to becoming a lawyer, author, and father of triplets, his story defies every preconceived notion about disability. We delve into the power of storytelling as a tool for societal change, the psychological resilience required to reclaim agency, and why true advocacy starts with making others comfortable with discomfort. Ken’s multidisciplinary approach—melding law, education, and psychology—reveals how systemic barriers crumble when met with relentless compassion and logic. A must-listen for anyone seeking proof that limitations are often illusions, this episode challenges us to rethink ability, accessibility, and the transformative power of visibility. Don’t miss Ken’s insights on turning personal adversity into collective progress—and why removing two bushes to build a ramp can change the world. Trigger warning: Contains discussions of physical trauma and societal discrimination. Sponsors and important links

    #197 - Valerie Johns - This Trauma Secret Was BANNED From Therapy! (The VIOLENT Truth About Healing)

    In this raw, unfiltered episode of Mental Matters, host Asekho sits down with a trauma survivor and psychotherapist whose childhood was shattered by a father’s rage, a mother’s silence, and ashes spilled in milk—a metaphor for irreversible fractures. Together, they dismantle the myth of “one-and-done” therapy, exposing how modern psychology’s spiritual bypassing sells false promises of instant healing. The guest unravels Carl Jung’s concept of the shadow—the exiled parts of ourselves born from rejection—and shares how decades of hypnotherapy, dream-tending, and recovering “tsunami nightmares” unearthed buried trauma. From a spanked six-year-old cowgirl to a near-fatal addiction, they reveal why healing isn’t about “fixing” pain but reclaiming disowned selves. The conversation challenges popular narratives: Is all addiction rooted in trauma? Can you ever drink “normally” after recovery? And why do we cling to “comfortable pain” instead of confronting our shadows? With references to their poetic memoir Ashes in the Milk, the guest reframes trauma as poison turned to medicine—a lifelong alchemy of courage, not cure. For anyone exhausted by superficial self-help, this episode is a compass for embracing the messy, non-linear path to wholeness. Because sometimes, the hurricane is the way home.
