  • Ep. 200 Breaking the Cycle: Narcissism, Trauma, and Rising as a Woman Leader with Dr. Sage Breslin
    May 11 2026

    Show Notes:

    In this powerful episode, host Heidi Schalk sits down with Dr. Sage Breslin, a transformation psychologist and coach with 35 years of experience helping people get unstuck and rise above where they are. Dr. Sage opens up about her personal journey through toxic relationships, financial devastation, a bone marrow cancer diagnosis, and the breakthrough that changed everything, and how all of it shaped the work she does today with professional women leaders.

    The conversation dives deep into one of the most overlooked blind spots in business and personal life: the impact of narcissistic individuals on high-achieving women. From the workplace to intimate relationships, Dr. Sage explains why old soul women are especially vulnerable, how narcissists systematically dismantle confidence and clarity, and what leaders can do to protect themselves and their teams.

    Bio:

    Dr. Sage Breslin is a Breakthrough and Transformation Coach, Trauma Psychologist, Motivational Speaker, Screenwriter, and Best-Selling Author. Despite surviving extensive trauma—including sexual assault, paralysis, cardiac arrest, and a bone marrow transplant—she has turned her experiences into a force for helping others.

    She holds a BA in Behavioral Psychology from UCSD and an MA and PhD in Counseling Psychology from Northwestern University and is certified in Mind/Body Medicine at Harvard Medical School. Her acclaimed books include Lovers & Survivors, The Secret to Conception, Daily Pearls: 365 Days of Sage Wisdom, and the best-seller Breaking Through: The Conscious Leader’s and Entrepreneur’s Guide to Amplify Intuition, Clarity, Vision, Motivation and Productivity. Her upcoming release, Ditch the Narcissist Magnet, is coming in 2026.

  • Ep. 199 She Was Told to Fold. 26 Years Later She Has Six Clinics: Sheree' Behrndt of Sensory Solutions
    May 8 2026

    Show Notes:

    What does it take to build a pediatric therapy practice from zero to six locations over 26 years with no business degree, no roadmap, and more than a few moments of wanting to walk away? Sheree' Behrndt, founder of Sensory Solutions, has lived that story and she is still writing it.

    Sheree' is an occupational therapist who stumbled into pediatrics when the company she worked for was closing its doors. In April of 2000, with a new partner and a whole lot of belief, she launched Sensory Solutions out of the home health space in Missouri. Within the first few years, the business exploded to 50 contractors, then collapsed almost overnight when the state cut funding. She started an outpatient clinic, had no referral network, had no idea how to bill insurance, and by her own admission fell flat on her face more times than she can count.

    She kept going anyway.

    Today Sensory Solutions operates four clinics across the St. Louis metro area and has expanded into Paducah, Kentucky through a partnership with a longtime team member. The practice provides physical, occupational, and speech therapy for children from birth to age 18, with a specialty that sets them apart from nearly anyone in the region: children who cannot eat.

    Sheree' shares her passion for the zero to three age window, explaining the science behind neuroplasticity and why early, high frequency intervention can change the trajectory of a child's life permanently. She talks about the two year old who eats only Ritz crackers, the babies falling off growth charts and facing feeding tubes, and the college graduates who reach out years later to say they would not be where they are without her team.

    The conversation also gets honest about the hard stuff. Personal challenges in recent years led Sheree' to step back, turnover followed, and revenue took a significant hit. Rather than walk away, she is back out meeting with pediatricians, writing thank you cards to referral partners she had taken for granted, showing up at the office, and betting on herself again

  • Ep. 198 The $5 Trillion Problem: How Preventative Medicine Could Save Our Health Care System with Dr. Roger Jahnke
    May 6 2026

    Show Notes:

    In this episode of Business Growth Spotlight, host Heidi Schalk sits down with Dr. Roger Jahnke, founder of Health Action, a wellness and health maximization organization with over 35 years in business. Dr. Jahnke shares his deeply personal journey into integrative medicine, rooted in losing his father to cancer at just 10 years old, and how that experience shaped his life's mission of helping people unlock their body's natural capacity to heal.

    Dr. Jahnke breaks down why preventative and integrative medicine has been slow to gain adoption despite decades of conversation, pointing to societal addiction to convenience, the financial incentives embedded in the pharmaceutical and agricultural industrial complexes, and a healthcare system that profits from chronic illness rather than preventing it.

    The conversation dives deep into the staggering financial reality that over 80% of the current $5 trillion annual US healthcare spend goes toward preventable chronic disease, and how organizations that invest just $1 in health maximization practices can see a return of $3 to $6. Dr. Jahnke shares firsthand stories from his consulting work with the Veterans Administration, hospital systems, corporations, and school districts, and why even well-intentioned organizations fall short when it comes to implementing real wellness programs.

    He also touches on how Health Action is beginning to integrate AI into their strategic planning and content creation, while remaining grounded in human connection and nature-based wellness practices.

    Topics covered include the difference between "healthcare" as a financing system versus true health maximization, why the human body is always working to heal itself, how organizations can train teams to embed wellness naturally into their culture, and why breaking the traditional "target market" rule has worked for Health Action for over three decades.
