    Healing Outside the Lines: Rethinking Why We Get Sick, and How We Get Better, with Tatiana Miller

    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 MillerTatiana Miller started RX 4 Life over a decade ago. 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. Her mission is to offer the real prescription for life – not just pills or quick fixes, but proactive steps to foster enduring mental health.  Connect with TatianaRX 4 Life website RX 4 Life Facebook Tatiana’s YouTube Channel Instagram @rx4lifethemovement About The BreakoutThe Breakout is the hit podcast hosted by human resources and change experts Dr. Keri Ohlrich and Kelly Guenther.

    Casting Doubts: Unpacking the Electoral College System, with Maximina Juson, director of One Person, One Vote? (rebroadcast)

    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 JusonMaximina 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.

    How to Do Whatever The Hell You Want: The Breakouts That Inspired the Book

    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.

The deadline for entries is midnight Pacific Time on October 8th. The winner will be announced in our October 16th episode. 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.

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. About Manya ChylinskiManya is a keynote speaker and advocate.
