Storytelling, Service, and Resilience for Mental Wellness with Paul Whitten

Storytelling, Service, and Resilience for Mental Wellness with Paul Whitten

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik sits down with Paul Whitten, a combat veteran and founder of Nashville Adventures, to talk about mental health, identity after military service, and how storytelling becomes real-world therapy. Paul breaks down how getting out of an “echo chamber” of pain. Through community, purpose, and structured routines. Helped him move through injury, survivor’s guilt, and burnout.

They also go deep on bootstrapped entrepreneurship, why service-based businesses fight harder for visibility, and how learning the basics of ROI, marketing, and leadership can protect your mental wellness while scaling. If you are dealing with burnout, trauma, or feeling stuck in survival mode. This conversation gives a practical roadmap: small acts of service, honest storytelling, and habits that actually hold when life gets chaotic.

About the Guest:

Paul Whitten is a combat veteran, returned Peace Corps volunteer, former UK Parliamentary Fellow, and the founder of Nashville Adventures, a veteran-owned walking tour company known for immersive storytelling and historical accuracy. His work centers community impact, including giving back to veteran-related causes, and building a business culture shaped by lessons from both great and terrible leadership.

Key Takeaways:
  • Storytelling can be a mental health tool. It pulls you out of rumination and into meaning after trauma or burnout.

  • If you are stuck in an echo chamber of pain. Change the room. Volunteer, teach, guide, or join a community that meets you with a blank slate.

  • Routines beat “mindset hacks”. Paul rebuilt momentum through physical therapy, museum tours, then consistent learning.

  • Service is a bridge out of isolation. Giving respect and appreciation often brings it back, which steadies your nervous system.

  • Bootstrapping is stressful. But naive optimism helps you start before fear talks you out of it.

  • Entrepreneurship is priorities and ROI. Learn the basics. P&L, balance sheet, marketing fundamentals. Knowledge compounds fast.

  • Learn from bad leadership too. Paul used painful corporate lessons to build a healthier culture and customer experience.

  • Keep work fun enough to sustain. If it feels like a toxic job, burnout shows up fast.

  • Grinding is the differentiator. Not IQ, not credentials. Consistency turns skeptics into competitors.

  • Micro challenge. Write one tough chapter in 10 minutes, share one honest piece with someone you trust, do one small act of service this month.

Breaking Food Myths & Healing Your Relationship with Eating – with Karin Adoni

Breaking Food Myths & Healing Your Relationship with Eating – with Karin Adoni

In this powerful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with certified nutritionist and health coach Karin Adoni to unpack the biggest misconceptions about working with a nutritionist. They explore why so many people fear judgment or extreme restrictions, how diet culture has shaped unhealthy narratives, and why food isn’t the enemy. Karin shares why weight loss is more about lifestyle than genetics, how sugar holds such power over us, and practical steps to break free from toxic eating cycles. This conversation goes beyond meal plans—it’s about reclaiming food as a source of empowerment, not guilt. About the Guest:Karin Adoni is a certified nutritionist, health coach, author, and founder of Me Supplements. After overcoming her own struggles with emotional eating and restrictive dieting, Karin now helps thousands transform their relationship with food. Her mission is clear: to break the toxic cycles of guilt, shame, and deprivation, and to empower people with sustainable, nourishing habits that support both mind and body. Key Takeaways: The biggest myth: nutritionists won’t force you to “eat only salads” or judge you. Weight loss is far more influenced by habits and environment than by genetics. The diet industry profits from unsustainable extremes—long-term health comes from balance. Sugar addiction is real, driven by dopamine cycles similar to other addictions. Building a healthy relationship with food means no more “all or nothing” mindset. Connect with Karin:Visit karinadoni.com or DM her on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/karinadoninutrition/ to learn more about her programs and coaching.   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

Imagination Creates Reality: How to Use Your Subconscious to Shape Life with Dylan Borland

Imagination Creates Reality: How to Use Your Subconscious to Shape Life with Dylan Borland

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik speaks with Dylan Borland, founder of Caden Academy, about the practical mechanics behind the idea that imagination creates reality. Dylan breaks down conscious vs. subconscious mind, why belief and feeling are non-negotiable for manifestation, and how to test this in your life with small, repeatable experiments. From recontextualizing limiting self-talk to embodying scenes where the “wish is fulfilled,” this episode gives direct, no-fluff steps to shift inner narratives and see measurable outer change. If you’ve wondered how visualization, emotion, and consistent focus translate into results, this conversation covers the framework start to finish—without hype.  About the Guest :  Dylan Borland is the founder of Caden Academy, a school of conscious creation and inner transformation. His work blends ancient wisdom with modern practice to help people remember who they truly are and create aligned outcomes using imagination, feeling, and the subconscious mind. He is the author of Imagination Creates Reality.  Key Takeaways: Imagination is the engine; the subconscious is the tool. The conscious mind filters ideas; repeated, accepted ideas imprint on the subconscious, which then expresses them outward. Belief first. Outcomes align with your dominant assumption. If you don’t believe it’s possible, you block it. Feel it real. Don’t just visualize; embody a short scene that implies the wish is already fulfilled. Engage senses (sound, touch, temperature) and the feeling (relief, gratitude). Recontextualize the story. Replace “I can’t” loops (e.g., “It’s hard to make money”) with precise, affirmative truths repeated consistently. Test small to build evidence. Use simple experiments (e.g., “ladder exercise”) for fast wins, then scale to bigger goals. Timing matters. Drift-to-sleep periods (alpha state) are potent windows to plant scenes and feelings. Identity is flexible. Life is chapters; you can choose new roles anytime. Stop clinging to past labels. Action follows state. Imagination doesn’t replace action; it informs aligned moves that feel natural from the fulfilled state. Health and mindset. Personal stories highlight how belief and mental focus influence well-being; adopt with discernment, not as medical advice. If it’s not showing up, check belief. Persistent inner contradictions often stall results; address the belief, then re-feel the scene.  How to Connect with the Guest : Website & free digital copy of Imagination Creates Reality: cadenacademy.com Community: Inner Edge Facebook group (linked from the website)  Some statements reflect personal belief and experiences and are presented as individual views, not medical advice.

Breaking the Silence: Kath Essing on Reclaiming Your Voice After Childhood Trauma

In this powerful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, we welcome Kath Essing, author of The Courage to Speak Your Truth. Kath shares her journey from silence to advocacy after surviving childhood sexual abuse. We discuss why reclaiming your voice is essential for healing, the complexities of sharing your story, and the critical gaps in current support systems and justice processes. Kath offers honest reflections on what helped her heal, the unexpected challenges she faced, and practical advice for both survivors and supporters. If you or someone you know is navigating the path from trauma to empowerment, this conversation is not to be missed. About Kath Essing:Kath Essing is a survivor, author, and advocate whose memoir The Courage to Speak Your Truth calls on women and allies to break free from the silence surrounding childhood sexual abuse. Through her personal story and advocacy, Kath is working to reform outdated systems and empower others to reclaim their stories and their strength.

Supporters should focus on listening, believing, and holding space rather than offering quick solutions. Systemic changes are urgently needed in healthcare, education, and justice to better support survivors. Healing is a non-linear journey, often starting with private reflection before public advocacy. Writing can be a powerful first step toward processing trauma and reclaiming your voice.

Rethinking Alcohol: Turning “I Need a Drink” Into Real Needs (Confidence, Connection, Calm) with Anna Donaghey

Rethinking Alcohol: Turning “I Need a Drink” Into Real Needs (Confidence, Connection, Calm) with Anna Donaghey

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty talks with Anna Donaghey—alcohol mindset coach, author, and host of The Big Drink Rethink—about why high-achievers quietly struggle with drinking and how to replace alcohol’s “jobs” (confidence, belonging, relief) with tools that actually nourish. We unpack Anna’s “What are you truly thirsty for?” framework, practical pause-and-choose strategies, and how boundaries, self-awareness, and nervous-system care build a life you don’t want to escape. If you’re sober-curious, rethinking happy-hour habits, or ready to change your relationship with alcohol without shame or moralizing, this direct, science-informed conversation is for you. About the guest  : Anna Donaghey spent 25 years as a strategy director in high-pressure advertising before confronting a growing dependence on alcohol. Now an alcohol mindset coach, podcast host of The Big Drink Rethink, and author of the forthcoming What Are You Thirsty For?, she helps people identify the unmet needs behind the drink and choose healthier ways to meet them. Key takeaways: Name the “job” you’re giving alcohol (confidence, connection, relief, sleep). Once named, you can meet that need directly. Micro-pause practice: before you drink, ask, “What am I really thirsty for right now?” Even if you still drink, the pause builds choice. High achievers are vulnerable: perfectionism, control, and overperformance can become an Achilles’ heel, pushing private, compensatory drinking. Alcohol isn’t the root problem; it becomes a placeholder for unmet emotional needs. Replace numbing with nourishing inputs. Build a life you don’t want to escape: core nutrients (body, mind, soul), better boundaries, and tools for regulation reduce urges. Treat sensations (tension, cravings, fatigue) as information, not failure. Respond with rest, connection, movement, or creativity. Success can mimic a drug (dopamine loops), just like work, scrolling, gaming. Swap quick hits for sustainable fulfillment. This is not about deprivation; it’s about empowerment—making alcohol small and irrelevant so you choose with intention. You don’t have to quit to begin; you do need to stop using alcohol as an emotional management tool. Start today: identify your top two “thirsts” (e.g., calm, belonging) and list non-alcohol ways to meet each in 10 minutes or less.
