How Neuroplasticity Can Help You Reach Your Goals With Dr Kristen Szabla

Welcome to the Personal Development Trailblazers Podcast! In today’s episode, we're talking about how to tap into the power of neuroplasticity so your brain can fully support you in reaching your goals instead of holding you back.

Dr. Kristen L. Szabla, PhD is a neuroscientist, international speaker, trauma expert, and Founder & CEO of Transforming Pain Now®, an organization dedicated to helping individuals and organizations move beyond survival mode through the science of neuroplasticity and nervous system transformation.

Drawing from both scientific expertise and lived experience, Dr. Szabla has pioneered innovative, neuroscience-based approaches that help high-achieving professionals, trauma survivors, and organizations rewire patterns created by chronic stress and trauma. Her work focuses on creating lasting transformation by addressing trauma at its source—the nervous system—rather than simply teaching people to manage symptoms.

Dr. Szabla is the creator of the From Surviving to Authentically Empowered Thriving™ program, which combines neuroscience, neuroplasticity, and nervous system regulation to help participants build resilience, emotional freedom, authentic confidence, and sustainable high performance.

Her thought leadership has been recognized internationally. She was featured on the cover of The Influential Today as one of the Most Influential Women Leaders Making a Difference for 2026, recognizing her work bridging neuroscience, leadership, and trauma recovery. She has also been recognized as Best Trauma Coach on the East Coast (2026) by Best of Best Review, and her work has been featured in multiple national and international publications highlighting innovation, leadership, entrepreneurship, neuroscience, and mental health.

A dynamic keynote speaker and educator, Dr. Szabla speaks internationally on topics including neuroplasticity, trauma recovery, burnout prevention, psychological safety, resilience, leadership, and the neuroscience of thriving. Her mission is to help people understand a powerful truth: trauma is not a life sentence—the brain can change, healing is possible, and every person has the capacity to move from surviving to authentically empowered thriving.
