The episode "Brain Health: Unchaining Your Pain" features pain therapist Katie Rothwell, who shares her journey with chronic pain. She discusses how pain isn’t just physical but also linked to emotions and stress. Her struggles with back pain while solo parenting and serving in the military shaped her perspective. This led her to develop the "Beat Pain" approach to help others regain control.

Katie explains how brain health affects pain perception and how stress amplified her suffering. A TED Talk by Lorimer Moseley helped her understand pain as a brain-processed experience. By changing her mindset and lifestyle, she found lasting relief. Now, she empowers others to break free from chronic pain and reclaim their lives.
