Mark England—co-founder of Enlifted and a pioneer in mindset and communication coaching—is joining us to break down how the words you speak and the stories you tell yourself shape your entire reality. With over 15 years of experience, a background in education, and having coached thousands around the world, Mark has built a system that helps people take control of their mindset through language, breath, and awareness.

In this episode, we dive into how to eliminate self-sabotage, shift out of victim mentality, and create a stronger, more disciplined version of yourself from the inside out.

If you’re serious about growth, performance, and leveling up every area of your life, this is one you don’t want to miss.

A lot of programs can get someone sober for 30 days. Very few can help them stay that way when life starts living again.

In this episode of Meet the Humans, we sit down with Jamie Corless, Director of Recovery Integration at e-motion wellness — one of the people responsible for ensuring what happens inside treatment actually translates to the real world outside it.

Jamie has been instrumental in building the systems that connect mental health care, addiction treatment, and sober living into something that resembles real continuity — not just handoffs and hope. From overseeing IOP and PHP programming to operating sober living environments, Jamie lives in the gap where most people fall through.

This conversation goes beyond titles and into the mechanics of recovery that actually sticks.

We get into:

• Why most treatment models fail the moment structure disappears
• What “recovery integration” actually means (and why it’s usually missing)
• The role of accountability, environment, and consistency in long-term change
• How crisis management really works when it’s not theoretical
• Why physical training and mindset work aren’t extras — they’re foundational

Jamie also shares how their background as a CrossFit coach, recovery coach, and Enlifted mindset coach shapes a more physiology-driven, action-oriented approach to healing — one that doesn’t rely on insight alone to create change.

This is a conversation about building people back up in a way that can survive real life — not just treatment.

Not everyone in the addiction conversation has lived it—and that’s exactly why this episode matters.

In this episode of the e-motion podcast, we break down the role of Joey, better known as “Joey the Moron” from 2 Addicts & A Moron. While his co-hosts bring lived experience in addiction and recovery, Joey represents something just as critical: the perspective of the everyday person trying to understand it all.

Joey asks the questions most people are thinking—but don’t say out loud. The uncomfortable ones. The blunt ones. The ones that cut through clinical language and get to what actually makes sense in real life.

This conversation explores why addiction recovery needs more than experts and lived experience—it needs translation. It needs curiosity. It needs someone willing to challenge assumptions, call out confusion, and keep the conversation grounded in reality.

We get into:

• Why the “outsider perspective” is essential in addiction and mental health conversations
• The danger of overcomplicating recovery with clinical jargon
• How humor and honesty can break down stigma around addiction
• What most people misunderstand about addiction—and why that matters
• The role of curiosity in changing how we approach recovery

Joey’s not here to be the expert. He’s here to ask better questions—and that might be exactly what this field has been missing.

If you’ve ever felt like addiction conversations don’t make sense, this episode is for you.

Behind every credential is a human being who decided to walk toward the hard conversations instead of away from them.

In this episode of Meet the Humans, we sit down with Shannon O’Connor, LPC, who recently earned her full clinical licensure and now leads the adolescent program at e-motion wellness. But this conversation isn’t about letters behind a name. It’s about the path that gets someone there — and what kind of person chooses to work with teenagers when things are messy, emotional, and very real.

Shannon talks about the experiences that shaped her, what drew her into counseling, and why working with adolescents requires something most systems forget: genuine presence, patience, and the ability to connect with young people before trying to “fix” them.

We explore how culture, family dynamics, and identity influence the way young people see themselves — and why adolescence is one of the most important windows to reshape self-concept, emotional regulation, and resilience.

You’ll hear Shannon’s perspective on:

• What does earning full licensure actually represent beyond the credential

• Why adolescents need authenticity more than authority

• How family systems shape the beliefs teenagers carry about themselves

• The difference between managing behavior and understanding the nervous system behind it

• What gives her hope when working with young people who feel stuck, misunderstood, or written off

At e-motion, we believe you deserve to know the humans behind the work.

Not just their credentials — but their story, their philosophy, and how they actually show up for people when things get hard.

Because transparency isn’t a marketing strategy here. It’s a standard.

Behind every admission is a human being deciding whether to trust or retreat—and that decision is happening in real time, inside their nervous system.

In this episode of Meet the Humans, we sit down with Kristin Harmon, Admissions Specialist and Human Change Guide at e-motion wellness. She’s often the very first point of contact for individuals and families reaching out—and what she does in those first moments has very little to do with paperwork, and everything to do with how people feel.

This conversation isn’t about intake forms or insurance verification. It’s about what it actually takes to meet someone at one of the most vulnerable points in their life—and not make it worse.

Kristin talks about the experiences that shaped her, what drew her into this role, and why she sees admissions as a clinical responsibility—not a sales function. She breaks down how fear, urgency, and resistance show up all at once, and why most systems mishandle that moment entirely.

We explore how the first conversation can either regulate someone enough to take the next step—or reinforce the exact patterns that kept them stuck in the first place.

You’ll hear Kristin’s perspective on:

• What’s happening physiologically when someone finally reaches out for help

• Why traditional admissions processes often increase anxiety instead of reducing it

• How presence, pacing, and honesty become tools for regulation

• The tension between urgency and readiness—and how to navigate both

• What families actually need to hear in those first conversations

At e-motion, we believe you deserve to know the humans behind the work.

Not just their credentials — but their story, their philosophy, and how they actually show up for people when things get hard.

Because transparency isn’t a marketing strategy here.

It’s a standard.

Finding a therapist shouldn’t feel like choosing a stranger off a résumé.

In our Meet the Humans series, we introduce you to the real people behind the work at e-motion Wellness — the stories, experiences, and identities that shape how they show up for clients when things get hard.

In this episode, we sit down with Dani Diaz, Clinical Therapist at e-motion Wellness. Dani is an LPC, athlete, and creative designer whose path into counseling was shaped long before graduate school.

Dani shares how her family history, cultural background, and personal experiences shaped the way she understands identity, belonging, and self-worth. She talks openly about how culture can quietly influence the beliefs we carry about ourselves and the world — sometimes empowering us, sometimes boxing us in.

We also explore how Dani integrates the different sides of who she is — therapist, athlete, and creative — into the way she approaches healing and connection with clients.

Because therapy isn’t just theory.

It’s a human being sitting across from another human being.

And the story behind the therapist matters.

In this episode we explore:

• Dani’s family story and how culture shaped her worldview

• What drew her to counseling and becoming an LPC

• The influence of identity and family expectations on self-concept

• How athletics and creativity influence her approach to therapy

• Why authenticity matters in building real therapeutic relationships

Most people never meet the person responsible for whether a treatment center actually runs with integrity. They meet the therapist. Maybe the founder. Rarely the operator.

That changes here.

In this episode of Meet the Humans, we introduce Casey Cunningham, our Director of Operations — the man who ensures our mission doesn’t just sound powerful, but performs under pressure.

Casey has a rare ability in this field: he transitions seamlessly between hard and soft skills. He can break down systems, budgets, compliance frameworks, and workflow inefficiencies with sharp precision — and then shift gears to lead a difficult conversation with empathy, steadiness, and emotional intelligence.

That range isn’t common. And it’s not optional if you actually care about outcomes.

In behavioral health, operations is more than logistics. It’s culture. It’s containment. It’s how crises are handled. It’s how standards are upheld when it would be easier — and more profitable — to compromise.

In this conversation, we unpack:

• Why operational leadership directly shapes client outcomes

• How structure creates psychological safety for staff and clients

• The hidden tension between business growth and ethical care

• What it takes to protect culture as you scale

• How Casey’s ability to move between decisiveness and compassion strengthens our mission

You’ll hear how he brings clarity without rigidity, accountability without ego, and humanity without chaos.

If you’ve ever wondered who ensures the philosophy actually becomes lived experience, this episode pulls back the curtain.

Because transparency isn’t a marketing strategy here. It’s a standard.

Choosing a treatment center means trusting strangers with your story, your relapse history, your trauma, your nervous system.

That shouldn’t be a blind leap.

In this episode of Meet the Humans, we sit down with Gabby Cortez, LMSW and Assistant Director of Operations at e-motion wellness. This isn’t a résumé read-through. It’s a real conversation about recovery, family history, and why authenticity inside a treatment environment is more than a value — it’s biology.

Gabby shares her own recovery journey and how growing up around addiction shaped her understanding of resilience, accountability, and connection. She talks about what drew her to social work, how lived experience influences her leadership, and why vulnerability in community settings acts as a nervous system regulator — not a weakness.

We break down:

• How authenticity builds psychological safety

• Why community is a biological intervention in addiction recovery

• The role of nervous system regulation in sustainable healing

• How lived experience shapes ethical leadership in mental health

• What clients actually need from treatment teams

Recovery doesn’t happen in isolation. The brain heals in connection. And when vulnerability is modeled from the top down, outcomes change.

If you’re considering addiction treatment, supporting a loved one, or working in behavioral health, this episode pulls back the curtain on what makes recovery environments actually work.

No corporate polish. No clinical performance. Just humans doing the work.
