In this raw, unfiltered, and deeply human conversation, G-Rex and Dirty Skittles sit down with Adriene, author of Unbroken: Life Outside the Lines, to talk about what it means to survive when the odds are stacked against you, and how hope can still take root in the most unforgiving places.

I have thrived. Hope is the reason I am still here.” — Adriene Caldwell Episode Description Adriene Caldwell’s story is not easy to hear, but it is necessary. In this deeply honest conversation, Adriene joins G-Rex and Dirty Skittles to share what it means to grow up in extreme poverty, endure horrific abuse, survive foster care, and attempt suicide, yet still choose to stay. From childhood trauma and an untreated mentally ill parent to homelessness and abusive foster placements, Adriene’s life was shaped by systems that failed her again and again. School became her refuge. Education became her way out. And hope, quiet, stubborn, and hard won, became her anchor. Adriene also opens up about the teachers who risked everything to protect her, the reality that fewer than 3 percent of foster youth ever attend college, and why emotional abuse can leave deeper scars than physical violence. She shares what finally led her to write her memoir, Unbroken: Life Outside the Lines, and how revisiting her trauma forced healing she never expected. This episode is raw, heavy, and deeply human. It is also a reminder that your current chapter is not your final one. If you have ever felt trapped by your past or unsure whether staying is worth it, Adriene’s story offers proof that hope can survive even the cruelest circumstances.

    Jenn Robb on Supporting a Child Through Anxiety, Depression, and Suicidal Thoughts
    2025/12/16
    Trigger Notice This episode contains discussions of child mental health, self-harm, sexual assault, suicidal ideation, and mental health crises involving minors. Listener discretion is advised. If you or someone you love is struggling, you are not alone.In the U.S., you can call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline for free, confidential support 24/7.If you’re outside the U.S., visit https://findahelpline.com to find resources in your country. When Jenn Robb’s daughter was just 12 years old, subtle changes turned into terrifying realities—crippling anxiety, depression, self-harm, and a moment that nearly took her child’s life. What followed wasn’t a clean, linear healing journey, but a relentless fight fueled by intuition, love, and a mother’s refusal to give up. In this raw and deeply human episode, G-Rex and Dirty Skittles sit down with Jenn to talk about what it truly means to parent through a child’s mental health crisis—and how survival sometimes comes before understanding. Kicking off this robust conversation, Jenn discusses the warning signs many parents miss, the unbearable tension between protecting your child and not pushing them away, and the hard decisions no parent ever expects to make. From navigating therapy and medication to learning when to speak—and when to remain silent—this episode offers honesty, clarity, and hope for parents walking similar paths. If you’ve ever felt afraid, overwhelmed, or unsure how to help your child without losing yourself, this conversation will meet you exactly where you are.

For Jenn Robb, nurse practitioner, author, and Warrior Mom coach, that question became her reality when her daughter began struggling with anxiety, depression, and self-harm at just 12 years old. In this profoundly moving episode, Jenn joins G-Rex and Dirty Skittles to share what it looks like to fight for your child’s life while learning how to respond instead of react. Jenn walks us through the warning signs parents often second-guess, the importance of trusting your intuition, and why finding the right therapist can take time—and persistence. She speaks candidly about advocacy within the mental health system, pushing back against overmedication, and why “fixing it” isn’t always the goal. Sometimes, love looks like restraint. Sometimes, it’s a code word and a piece of cake instead of questions. This conversation also highlights the caregiver’s experience—the burnout, the guilt, the loss of identity, and the slow realization that you can’t pour from an empty cup. Jenn shares practical tools for parents in the trenches, reminders that perfection isn’t required, and proof that healing is possible—even after unimaginable fear. This episode is for parents, caregivers, and anyone who loves a child navigating mental health challenges. You are not failing. You are not alone. And you are stronger than you think.

    Kelly on Traumatic Brain Injury, Neurofatigue, and the Fight to Feel ‘Normal’ Again
    2025/12/11
    After a car crash left her with a traumatic brain injury, Kelly spent months believing she was “fine” — until neurofatigue, memory lapses, and frightening moments behind the wheel told a different story. In this emotional and eye-opening episode, G-Rex and Dirty Skittles sit down with Kelly to talk about the invisible aftermath of TBI, the terror of feeling unlike yourself, and the long, patient fight to find your way back. Kicking off this powerful conversation, Kelly shares how she hid her brain injury for years, what neurofatigue actually feels like, and how therapy, mindfulness, and sheer determination helped her rebuild a life she thought she had lost. If you’ve ever felt “not yourself,” overwhelmed, or misunderstood in your healing process, this episode brings clarity, compassion, and hope.

Leave us written or voice feedback here: https://castfeedback.com/67521f0bde0b101c7b10442a Mental Health Quote “You’re not ‘crazy’ — your brain is hurt, and hurt things need care before they can function again.” — Kelly Tuttle Episode Description When Kelly’s car accident in 2015 left her concussed, she did what so many of us do — she tried to push through it. What she didn’t know was that she was living with a traumatic brain injury that would slowly dismantle her energy, her clarity, and her sense of self. Months later, after falling asleep at the wheel, mixing up words, and feeling wildly unlike herself, Kelly finally learned the truth: her brain was fighting for its life, and she needed help. In this powerful episode, Kelly joins G-Rex and Dirty Skittles to talk about neurofatigue, the fear of feeling “broken,” and the devastating impact of invisible injuries. She shares how she hid her disability for years, the therapies that actually helped, and the moment she realized she needed to tell her story so other survivors wouldn’t feel alone. From martial arts to mindfulness, from toast-and-coffee mishaps to rebuilding her identity one baby step at a time, Kelly’s journey is a reminder that recovery isn’t linear — and it isn’t fast. But it is possible. Whether you’re healing from a brain injury, dealing with cognitive overwhelm, or trying to understand a loved one’s struggles, this episode brings clarity, compassion, and hope to a conversation that desperately needs it.
