    Healing Trauma & Reclaiming Your Life with Joseph Gleed

    In this powerful episode of the SuperSelf Podcast Series, Pete Ferrari sits down with Army veteran, trauma therapist, former undercover anti-human trafficking operator, educator, and Krav Maga expert Joseph Gleed to talk about trauma, fear, resilience, psychological flexibility, and what it really takes to rebuild a life after something difficult happens. Joseph’s career has taken him from the military and self-defense training to undercover anti-trafficking operations and, eventually, the treatment of complex trauma. The turning point came after seeing a young trafficking survivor one year after her rescue. She was physically safe, cared for, and surrounded by resources—but she was still suffering. Joseph realized something critical: Rescue is only the beginning. Pete and Joseph explore why trauma recovery cannot follow a one-size-fits-all protocol, why what matters is not only what happened to you but what you continue carrying forward, and how people can rebuild confidence, agency, and flexibility after their world has been narrowed by fear. They also unpack the mind-body connection, self-defense as one piece of trauma recovery, values, committed action, why motivation is unreliable, and Joseph’s belief that pain and fear can become some of our greatest teachers. The goal is not to eliminate every hard thing from your life. It is to build the capacity to carry the hard stuff while still doing the important stuff. Episode Highlights: 06:15 – Why physical safety is only the beginning of recovery 17:09 – The swamp analogy: why suffering needs a purpose 32:37 – Psychological flexibility explained 40:51 – Stay curious instead of judgmental 48:21 – Trauma does not have to become a lifelong identity Key Takeaways: Rescue is not recovery. Removing someone from danger is essential, but safety alone does not erase what happened. Trauma treatment cannot be one-size-fits-all. You are more than what happened to you. The goal is not controlling everything that happens. It is becoming more capable of choosing how you respond. Fear and avoidance are not necessarily evidence that something is wrong with you. Stay curious. Stay present. Stop judging everything. About the Guest: Joseph Gleed is an Army veteran, trauma therapist, educator, Krav Maga instructor, and former undercover anti-human trafficking operator. He has spent approximately two decades working with veterans, first responders, survivors of violence, trafficking survivors, and individuals dealing with PTSD, complex trauma, chronic pain, burnout, and other difficult psychological conditions. His background also includes training special operations personnel and participating in anti-human trafficking operations that helped rescue hundreds of children and adults. Joseph teaches at Utah Valley University and the University of Utah and is the owner of Renova Wellness & Consulting, where the team specializes in complex and treatment-resistant presentations, including complex PTSD. His work focuses on psychological flexibility, personal agency, values, committed action, the mind-body connection, and helping people build the capacity to live meaningful lives alongside the inevitable difficulties of being human.

    Stop Managing Time. Start Managing Energy with Dr. Jack Groppel

    In this powerful episode of the SuperSelf Podcast Series, Pete Ferrari sits down with human performance pioneer Dr. Jack Groppel to talk about performance, recovery, purpose, movement, relationships, reinvention, and the hidden cost of achievement. Jack has spent decades studying what separates elite performers from everyone else. His work has taken him from the tennis court to corporate boardrooms, professional sports, healthcare, the United Nations, and conversations with national leaders. But some of his biggest lessons did not come from success. They came from failure, divorce, fatherhood, illness, and climbing Mount Kilimanjaro with his son. Jack explains why elite athletes understand something most professionals have forgotten: you cannot perform continuously without recovery. Athletes practice, recover, and then perform. Most of us simply perform, perform, perform, and wonder why we eventually burn out. Pete and Jack also unpack achievement addiction, why quality matters more than quantity, how movement affects far more than physical fitness, the power of micro-recovery throughout the workday, changing negative thought patterns, finding purpose at every stage of life, and the question Jack uses to recalibrate his own decisions: What matters most right now? This is not about accomplishing less. It is about learning how to bring better energy to the things and people that actually matter. Episode Highlights: 11:03 – Breaking generational cycles instead of repeating them 16:39 – Why managing energy can matter more than managing time 27:26 – Why Mountains Within had to include the failures as well as the wins 40:27 – Purpose, spirituality, and what gives life meaning 47:34 – Why important tasks cannot truly be multitasked Key Takeaways: Quality beats quantity. More hours do not automatically produce better performance. Presence is not the same as being present. You are allowed to break the cycle. Keep your childlike curiosity. You cannot create more hours in a day. But you can influence the energy you bring to those hours. Your energy affects everyone around you. Purpose is allowed to evolve. Human beings need meaning. Do not just fight the thought. Change the picture. About the Guest: Dr. Jack Groppel is a pioneer in sports science, human performance, executive performance, and leadership. His career began in tennis and biomechanics before expanding into the broader science of human performance. He co-founded the Human Performance Institute and pioneered the concept of the Corporate Athlete, applying principles traditionally associated with elite athletic performance to business, healthcare, leadership, and everyday life. His work has taken him around the world, working with athletes, executives, corporations, coaches, and organizations while studying the relationship between energy, recovery, physical movement, mental focus, emotional state, purpose, and sustainable performance. Jack is also the author of Mountains Within, a deeply personal memoir exploring achievement, failure, relationships, faith, fatherhood, reinvention, and the lessons he confronted while climbing Mount Kilimanjaro with his son.

    What 25 Years in the FBI Taught Eric Robinson About Human Nature

    In this fascinating and unexpectedly funny episode of the SuperSelf Podcast Series, Pete Ferrari sits down with former FBI Special Agent Eric Robinson to talk about what nearly 25 years investigating criminals, recruiting informants, working SWAT operations, and interviewing people at their worst taught him about human nature. Eric’s path into the FBI was anything but typical. Before federal law enforcement, he spent 12 years in Christian ministry, including time as a pastor. Ironically, Eric says he joined the FBI because he needed a job with less stress. Ministry had become so emotionally consuming that he experienced daily headaches for years. The day the FBI offered him a position, the headaches stopped. Eric went from never having handled a gun to becoming a firearms instructor and spending 15 years on SWAT. Along the way, he investigated white-collar crime, gangs, drugs, threats, trafficking, crimes against children, and cases that stretched well beyond the United States. Pete and Eric unpack the lessons behind those extreme experiences: how to stay calm when emotions run high, build genuine rapport, use silence strategically, understand people without excusing them, process repeated exposure to trauma, and prepare so thoroughly that fear begins to disappear. This is not simply an FBI story. It is a conversation about curiosity, preparation, emotional control, human connection, and learning how to understand people before reacting to them. Episode Highlights: 07:36 – Going from pastor to FBI agent and eventually firearms instructor 19:21 – What working with criminals taught Eric about human nature 28:28 – Processing trauma through community, storytelling, and humor 46:54 – Why asking the question and staying quiet can be incredibly powerful 57:41 – Teaching himself financial crime despite having a religion degree Key Takeaways: Boundaries are not a lack of compassion. Understanding someone does not mean excusing them. Good conversations come from curiosity, not scripts. Pay attention to what people reveal. If the question is valid, let the other person sit with it. Preparation Kills Fear. Yet preparation dramatically reduced fear. Competency replaces uncertainty. Curiosity does not mean gullibility. About the Guest: Eric Robinson is a former FBI Special Agent whose career with the Bureau spanned nearly 25 years. Before entering federal law enforcement, Eric spent approximately 12 years in Christian ministry, including time as a pastor. During his FBI career, he worked investigations involving financial crime, gangs, narcotics, threats, human intelligence, trafficking, crimes against children, and other complex cases. He also spent approximately 15 years as a SWAT operator and later became a firearms instructor. Eric is now bringing those experiences together in an upcoming memoir about what happens when a Baptist pastor who had never handled a gun gets dropped into the FBI for a quarter century. The book combines serious investigations, unusual characters, hard-earned lessons, and the dark humor that helped Eric process an extraordinary career.

    You’re Not Being Buried, You’re Being Planted with Dr. Pardis Mahdavi

    In this deeply personal and wide-ranging episode of the SuperSelf Podcast Series, Pete Ferrari sits down with medical anthropologist, author, educator, and strategist Dr. Pardis Mahdavi for a conversation about trust, identity, resilience, self-awareness, relationships, culture, spirituality, and what happens when the systems we have been taught to trust stop making sense. Pardis has spent decades studying people, institutions, migration, culture, health, human relationships, and the spaces where science, spirituality, and lived experience collide. But this conversation quickly moves beyond academics. Together, Pete and Pardis explore a simple but powerful idea: Sometimes you are not being buried. You are being planted. Pete and Pardis also unpack the difference between making decisions from a suffering state versus a beautiful state, why meditation and self-awareness can create space between emotion and action, how parents unknowingly “splatter” their internal state onto their children, and why learning to love yourself may be one of the least selfish things you can do. They go deep into relationships, intuition, the danger of ignoring red flags, the “tyranny of the should,” intergenerational trauma and strength, and why Pardis believes horses became some of her greatest teachers. This episode is not about avoiding hardship. It is about learning how to recognize the valley, harvest what it has to teach you, and use what you find there to become more aligned with who you actually are. Episode Highlights: 06:54 – The difference between being buried and being planted 18:38 – “Relational awakening” and why other people can sharpen your self-awareness 25:31 – Parenting is “caught, not taught” 36:31 – Why love does not automatically mean someone is the right partner for you 44:39 – Why taking care of yourself can also be an act of taking care of your children 54:39 – Intergenerational trauma versus intergenerational strength Key Takeaways: Success feels good, but the top of the mountain is not always where the deepest learning happens. Being planted implies that something new may still grow from what is happening. Growth does not require pretending suffering feels good. Trust does not disappear when institutions fail, it migrates. Community becomes especially important during uncertainty. Ancient practices lose something when separated from their cultural context. The practice is only one piece. The culture surrounding it matters too. Meditation can help you notice yourself before you react. Trauma can become coded before you have language for it. Self-love is not selfishness. About the Guest: Dr. Pardis Mahdavi is a medical anthropologist, author, educator, speaker, and strategist whose work explores culture, identity, migration, human rights, institutional change, trust, education, and the relationship between individual experience and the larger systems surrounding us. Across her career, she has served as a university president, provost, dean, professor, researcher, and institutional leader. Her current work continues to examine what happens when traditional institutions no longer reflect the realities of the people living within them. Pardis is the author of numerous books, including Riding, Book of Queens, Hyphen, Gridlock, Passionate Uprisings, and Crossing the Gulf. Today, Pardis also advises leaders and organizations navigating education, culture, institutional transformation, and a rapidly changing world.

    When High Performance Breaks Your Body with Miguel Bautista

    In this powerful episode of the SuperSelf Podcast Series, Pete Ferrari sits down with Miguel Batista, founder of CFS Recovery, to talk about chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, long COVID, burnout, nervous system dysregulation, and what happens when the same high-performance mindset that built your life suddenly starts working against you. At 19, Miguel was a driven athlete and personal trainer determined to become the best in a company of hundreds of trainers. He pushed harder, slept less, skipped meals, loaded up on caffeine, ignored heart palpitations, and treated exhaustion like another obstacle to overpower. Eventually, his body stopped cooperating. Miguel went from training clients and competing at a high level to being bedridden, repeatedly hospitalized, unable to feed himself, and dependent on his grandparents for basic care. After dozens of specialists, tests, treatments, supplements, and IVs failed to give him answers, an unexpected conversation with a psychiatrist changed the direction of his recovery. Miguel began approaching his symptoms differently, not simply as enemies to eliminate, but as signals from a system that had been pushed beyond what it could tolerate. Pete and Miguel unpack why high performers are especially vulnerable to the push-crash cycle, why identity loss can be even more devastating than the physical symptoms, and why “just push through it” can become one of the most dangerous pieces of advice for someone whose body is already demanding a different approach. This conversation is not about giving up ambition. It is about learning when discipline means pushing harder, and when discipline means finally listening to your body. A great opportunity to recalibrate your life, watch and find out! http://www.cfsrecovery.co/superself Episode Highlights: 11:27 – Why high performance can become a double-edged sword 24:05 – Identity loss: Who are you when you can no longer perform? 34:56 – Finding the right starting point based on physical, cognitive, and emotional capacity 45:38 – How to recognize the push-crash cycle by looking at your six-month trajectory 57:24 – Why recovery requires permission to become uncomfortable Key Takeaways: The traits that make you successful can also push you past your limits. High performers often try to solve health problems by pushing harder. Your body does not care about your identity as a high performer. Symptoms may be signals, not enemies. Rule out serious medical problems first. Chronic illness can destroy identity before it destroys hope. Being productive and being healthy are not always the same thing. About the Guest: Miguel Batista is the founder of CFS Recovery, a global coaching and education platform supporting people navigating chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, long COVID, and complex unexplained symptoms. After years of unexplained symptoms, repeated hospitalizations, dozens of specialists, extensive treatments, and periods of being completely bedridden, he eventually began working with a psychiatrist who introduced a very different framework for understanding his symptoms and rebuilding his capacity. After recovering, Miguel made good on a promise he had made during one of the darkest periods of his illness: if he ever found his way back, he would help others searching for the same answers. His team includes former clients who have personally gone through the recovery process themselves, bringing lived experience alongside the program’s education and coaching. Miguel’s long-term mission is simple: Help one million people get their lives back.

    The Hidden Cause of Your Headaches with Dr. Jono Taves

    In this eye-opening episode of the SuperSelf Podcast Series, Pete Ferrari sits down with Dr. Jono Taves, Mayo Clinic-trained physical therapist and founder of the Novera Headache Center, to challenge the way chronic headaches and migraines are commonly understood and treated. For many people, the path looks familiar: headaches become frequent, a migraine diagnosis follows, and the next step is another medication designed to reduce or prevent the symptoms. But Jono asks a different question: Where is the pain actually coming from? Drawing on his work with complex headache and migraine patients, Jono explains why problems involving the upper neck, shoulders, jaw, posture, movement, and even breathing mechanics can contribute to head and facial pain. Rather than looking only at the headache itself, his approach examines the entire system surrounding it. Pete and Jono explore why imaging such as MRIs and X-rays may not always tell the full story, how seemingly harmless daily habits can accumulate into mechanical stress, and why someone does not need a dramatic injury for their neck to become part of the problem. From migraine and tension headaches to cervicogenic headaches, sleep position, mouth breathing, exercise, nutrition, medication use, and patient self-advocacy, this conversation is about moving beyond symptom management and becoming more curious about the reason your body is hurting in the first place. This is not about ignoring conventional medicine or pretending every headache has the same cause. It is about asking a better question before accepting that chronic pain is simply something you have to live with. Episode Highlights: 07:54 – Why athletes may develop headaches after exceeding their body’s load tolerance 18:00 – Preventative versus abortive migraine medications and the problem with relying only on symptom management 30:10 – How overall health can change your body’s tolerance for a local source of pain 40:43 – Why joints that stop moving well can become irritated and painful 52:28 – When should someone start looking beyond medication for answers? Key Takeaways: A diagnosis describes your symptoms, but it may not explain their source. The neck may deserve more attention in chronic headache cases. Normal imaging does not automatically mean normal function. You do not need a dramatic injury to develop a mechanical problem. Pain is information. Rather than immediately treating pain as something that must be silenced, ask what the pain might be communicating about how your body is moving and tolerating stress. About the Guest: Dr. Jono Taves is a Mayo Clinic-trained physical therapist and the founder of Novera Headache Center, a practice focused on evaluating and treating complicated headache and migraine cases. His work centers on identifying potential mechanical and structural contributors to chronic head and facial pain, particularly dysfunction involving the neck, shoulders, and jaw. Through Novera, Jono works with patients who often arrive after years of medications, imaging, specialist appointments, and persistent symptoms without a clear explanation for why their headaches continue. His approach combines hands-on manual therapy, movement restoration, lifestyle assessment, patient education, and collaboration with other healthcare professionals when broader health factors need to be addressed. Jono is also the creator of The Headache Doctor, where he shares educational content about headaches, migraines, neck-related pain, and root-cause-focused care through podcasts and social media.

    Your Personality Is Not Fixed with Dr. Shannon Sauer-Zavala

    In this insightful and highly practical episode of the SuperSelf Podcast Series, Pete Ferrari sits down with clinical psychologist, professor, researcher, and founder of The Personality Compass, Dr. Shannon Sauer-Zavala, to challenge one of the biggest assumptions we make about ourselves: that our personality is fixed. According to Shannon, personality is not some permanent essence we are born with and stuck with forever. Scientifically, personality is made up of our characteristic patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving, and those patterns can change. Together, Pete and Shannon explore how childhood experiences, reinforcement, fear, relationships, success, failure, and the stories we repeatedly tell ourselves can shape the way we show up in the world. More importantly, they discuss how those same principles can be used intentionally to build new patterns. Pete gets personal about the anger and aggression that helped him survive childhood bullying but sometimes creates problems in adult life. Shannon explains why the answer is not to shame yourself for an unwanted trait or completely reinvent who you are. Instead, she encourages people to understand what that behavior has been doing for them, identify whether it still serves the life they want, and begin running small behavioral experiments. From people-pleasing, perfectionism, procrastination, confidence, parenting, and emotional reactivity to the Big Five personality traits and Shannon’s Thinking, Doing, and Being framework, this conversation offers an evidence-based roadmap for becoming more intentional about who you are. You do not need to become a completely different person. Sometimes the goal is simply moving the dial from a ten to a nine. Episode Highlights: 06:09 – Why personality change should begin with your values and the person you want to become 18:07 – How to determine whether your current personality traits still serve you 27:48 – Parenting according to your values instead of copying everyone around you 34:34 – The Thinking, Doing, and Being framework 46:40 – The danger of using “that’s just the way I am” as an excuse 53:25 – Why the biggest learning happens when reality contradicts your expectations Key Takeaways: Your personality is not a life sentence. Changing personality does not mean becoming somebody else. There is no universally perfect personality. Traits become helpful or harmful depending on context and intensity. Stop beating yourself up for repeating patterns. Shame alone rarely creates sustainable change. People-pleasing is reinforced because it works in the short term. Behavioral experiments are more useful than permanent declarations. Planning is a skill, not an identity. You do not inherently “need the adrenaline of the last minute.” About the Guest: Dr. Shannon Sauer-Zavala is a clinical psychologist, professor, researcher, and founder of The Personality Compass, where she helps people use evidence-based psychological tools to intentionally change patterns that are keeping them from the life they want. Her work focuses on personality, cognitive behavioral therapy, anxiety, depression, personality disorders, behavioral change, and translating clinical research into practical tools that can be used outside traditional therapy. She is the author of an upcoming clinical workbook focused on borderline personality disorder and is also writing The Personality Edit, a broader book designed to bring the science of intentional personality change to everyday readers.

    Move Better, Hurt Less with Dave Jeter

    In this practical episode of the SuperSelf Podcast Series, Pete Ferrari sits down with physical therapist Dave Jeter, founder of Acceleration Physical Therapy, to talk about why pain should not automatically mean injections, MRIs, surgery, or giving up the activities you love. With more than 25 years of experience in physical therapy, Dave takes a different approach: look beyond the painful structure and figure out why that area is being overloaded in the first place. Together, Pete and Dave break down why shoulder pain may actually be connected to stiffness in the neck, upper back, shoulder blade, or collarbone, why low back pain may be driven by poor movement in the hips and pelvis, and why simply treating the body part that hurts can miss the bigger problem entirely. Pete also opens up about decades of lifting, running, cortisone injections, shoulder damage, and the consequences of pushing through pain without proper rehab. Dave explains why mobility can be even more important than strength for already-active people and why the best physical therapy combines hands-on manual work with progressive exercise. From cortisone and PRP to stem cells, strength training, balance, chronic pain, injury prevention, and healthy aging, this episode is about learning how to work with your body instead of constantly fighting against it. The goal is not simply to feel better today. It is to move well enough that you can still walk across the soccer field, play with your grandchildren, exercise, travel, and live independently decades from now. Episode Highlights: 03:00 – The difference between identifying what hurts and understanding why it hurts 11:08 – Why a physical exam may tell you more than an MRI 20:42 – The four pillars of musculoskeletal health: flexibility, strength, endurance, and balance 35:56 – When cortisone may have a useful role in a larger rehab plan 40:00 –When physical therapy can help you break through a fitness plateau 55:42 – Why successful rehab may take months rather than days Key Takeaways: Pain is often the symptom, not the whole problem. An MRI does not always explain your pain. Bodies accumulate wear, old injuries, scar tissue, and structural changes over time. Physical therapy can often begin earlier than people realize. Physical therapy should not replace proper medical screening. Some symptoms can indicate a serious condition rather than a musculoskeletal injury. Strong does not automatically mean healthy. What you do now determines what you can do ten years from now. Chronic pain can become a cycle. Listen when your body changes the message. Cortisone is a tool, not a cure.  Surgery can be appropriate without being the first answer. Balance deserves far more attention. Strength alone cannot always prevent injuries. About the Guest: Dave Jeter is a physical therapist with more than 25 years of experience and the founder of Acceleration Physical Therapy in Spokane, Washington. His approach combines manual therapy, mobility work, functional exercise, progressive loading, balance, coordination, endurance, and patient education to help people better understand why they hurt and what they can do about it. Rather than focusing only on the painful body part, Dave evaluates how the surrounding joints, muscles, and movement patterns are functioning together and looks for the mechanical reasons a particular structure may be experiencing excessive stress. His goal is not simply to reduce pain temporarily. It is to help people restore movement, build resilience, improve independence, and create a healthier musculoskeletal system for the long term.
