S: 2 E: 38 Laurel Mellin ~ Emotional Brain Training (EBT)
Laurel Mellin is a health psychologist and founder of Emotional Brain Training (EBT). This scientific, easy-to-use skill set empowers people to take care of their health and happiness with fewer medications and less therapy. The circuits in the unconscious mind cause most health problems (e.g., obesity, addiction, anxiety, depression, relationship stress, chronic diseases, and trauma). Current methods often fall short of rewiring the unconscious mind, resulting in superficial and short-term outcomes. EBT transforms people’s lives by giving them rapid and direct control over their unconscious mind, allowing them to decide what change they want to make, identify the wire that causes the problem, and then rewire it. EBT comes with an App that if used properly can create the “Wonderful World” that Rick sings about in the musical feature of this episode!

Dr. Mellin developed EBT as an Associate Professor of Family and Community Medicine and pediatrics at the School of Medicine, UCSF. Dr. Mellin is a New York Times bestselling author who has written 12 books on the method and is an internationally recognized authority on achieving optimal health through rewiring the unconscious mind. Her process is evidence-based for treating obesity, stress eating, anxiety, addiction, work stress, relationship challenges, and chronic diseases. EBT is an entirely new, brain-based way to improve health that is becoming foundational to psychotherapy, medicine, and self-care. It includes an app, daily professional support, and coaching, all at an affordable price. Dr. Mellin maintains a private concierge practice and speaks widely at conferences and to the public.
TWO GREAT WAYS to HELP us Take the World from ZERO to 100! ~ LET’S DO THIS!

“Partnering with Jazz for Peace is…an opportunity for the community to experience world-class music, while raising much needed funds.” ~ The American Red Cross
Paul Rushworth-Brown is an English-born Australian novelist whose work doesn’t just entertain, it confronts. His latest book, Outback Odyssey, takes readers deep into the raw beauty and brutality of 1950s Australia. What begins as an outback adventure soon becomes a deeply moving, allegorical exploration of Australia’s colonial legacy, First Nations’ resilience, and the silence that still lingers around reconciliation. This amazing conversation about Australia’s history and relationship with its First Nation’s inhabitants lay the groundwork for Rex inspired performance of his own “Little Song” in an episode that people from all cultures will enjoy and relate to.
Paul Rushworth-Brown is an English-born Australian novelist whose work doesn’t just entertain, it confronts. Known for transforming historical fiction into a powerful form of truth-telling, Paul writes gritty, emotionally charged stories that challenge the myths. His novels are packed with unexpected twists, stirring romance, and endings you never see coming, because real history rarely wraps up neatly.
His latest book, Outback Odyssey, takes readers deep into the raw beauty and brutality of 1950s Australia. When a young Yorkshire migrant is abandoned in the outback and taken in by a First Nations clan, the journey that follows is one of survival, cultural awakening, and painful reckoning. What begins as an outback adventure soon becomes a deeply moving, allegorical exploration of Australia’s colonial legacy, First Nations’ resilience, and the silence that still lingers around reconciliation.
Paul’s storytelling is driven by meticulous research and a passion for truth. His previous novels, Skulduggery, Red Winter Journey, and Dream of Courage, have been praised for their immersive detail, unforgettable characters, and emotional depth. He’s been featured on the ABC, BBC, in Publisher’s Weekly, and on literary and cultural podcasts across the U.S., U.K., and Australia. His books consistently resonate with readers hungry for fiction that doesn’t flinch from hard truths but delivers them through gripping plots and complex, human drama.
As a guest, Paul brings wit, warmth, and an unapologetic perspective. He’s a natural storyteller, equally at home discussing post-colonial identity, the craft of historical fiction, or how to write characters that feel real across centuries. With Outback Odyssey now being reviewed for film adaptation, Paul is also a voice at the intersection of literature and screen, offering behind-the-scenes insight into adapting big, emotionally resonant stories for a global audience.
He also hosts Down Under Interviews and History Bards, where he dives into the stories behind the storytellers, bringing a seasoned interviewer’s touch and a unique understanding of what captivates listeners.
Paul’s journey from Yorkshire to the red dust of Australia mirrors the themes he writes about, displacement, identity, and the search for belonging. As an English-born Australian, he brings an outsider’s clarity and an insider’s heart to the cultural contradictions many Australians would rather avoid. That unique lens is what makes his fiction so compelling, and his interviews so impactful.
His work is especially timely in the wake of Australia’s failed Voice referendum, as national conversations around truth-telling, colonial history, and cultural inclusion grow louder, and more divisive. Through allegory and character, Paul dares to go where politicians and media often will not. His novels create space for empathy, discomfort, and ultimately, connection.
Whether you want to explore how fiction can reveal buried history, how to write unforgettable characters, or why Australia still struggles with its past, Paul brings honesty, warmth, and a spark of mischief to every conversation. His interviews are as thought-provoking as his novels, full of humour, insight, and the occasional curveball, just like the stories he tells.

Season 2 Episode 34 brings us the incredible story of Marcy Langlois, who sums up How to Overcome Triggers & Limitations from Trauma as follows: “Our beliefs create our thoughts. Our thoughts dictate how we feel. Our feelings determine our actions. The actions that we take every day create the life that we live.” Marcy is a trauma survivor and chronic illness warrior 20+ years into her sobriety journey who shares tips and tools accumulated from a lifetime of work to help others live beyond their limits. Today, Marcy lives a life filled with self-love and contentment. However, her greatest passion lies in sharing her transformative story with others, providing them with hope and healing in their own struggles. All of which inspired a most unique version of Elton John’s Daniel performed live on the show by Rick.
Marcy Langlois: Triumphing over Adversity
Early Challenges and Inner Turmoil
Since birth, Marcy Langlois has faced formidable difficulties, undergoing more than twenty surgical procedures to address her cleft lip and palate. This physical struggle only compounded the emotional burdens she endured. Marcy was subjected to relentless teasing and bullying during her childhood, as her appearance and speech differed from her peers.
Navigating Identity and Overcoming Self-Doubt
As Marcy progressed through Catholic grade school, she confronted another layer of self-discovery: her attraction to girls rather than boys. Confusion and shame about her sexuality reinforced her already entrenched beliefs of being worthless and unlovable. The struggle between external and internal insecurities intensified, compelling Marcy to become a perfectionist in an attempt to deflect attention from her perceived flaws.
The Destructive Path of Addiction
In her quest to silence the nagging voice in her mind, Marcy turned to alcohol during her middle school years. While it temporarily numbed her pain, it accelerated a downward spiral. The tragic car accident she was involved in during high school claimed the lives of three individuals, fueling her guilt and deepening her reliance on alcohol as an escape. Thus began a decade-long struggle with alcoholism that resulted in the loss of employment, devastated relationships, and a battle with chronic illness that nearly cost Marcy her life.
Breaking Free and Embracing Transformation
Rock bottom was the turning point for Marcy at the age of 27. Utilizing resources provided by a Twelve-Step Program, she embarked on a miraculous journey of recovery. Embracing sobriety, Marcy engaged in extensive therapy, personal reflection, and spiritual exploration to heal her wounds and discover her true self.
Finding Love, Fulfillment, and Purpose
Today, Marcy lives a life filled with self-love and contentment. She and her wife have cultivated a beautiful, lasting relationship for over twenty years. Professionally, Marcy achieved remarkable success as a Mortgage Banker and Vice President in the banking industry and now works at a top mortgage banking business. However, her greatest passion lies in sharing her transformative story with others, providing them with hope and healing in their own struggles.
A Message of Resilience and Empowerment
Marcy Langlois exemplifies the power of resilience in the face of daunting challenges. Her journey serves as an inspiring testament to the possibilities of personal growth and triumph over adversity. Marcy’s story resonates with individuals navigating their journeys, reminding them that healing, self-discovery, and the redefinition of their narratives are always within reach.

Season 2 Episode 44 brings us Australia’s David Chauhan, whose outstanding work Empowering Leaders & Equipping Organizations to Navigate Uncertainty & Lead with Purpose inspired Rick to perform a special version of the STYX Classic “Come Sail Away” in honor of the upcoming September 11th release of his New Book CAPTAIN, SET SAIL – a nautical guide to leadership in an unchartered world.
“Leadership today isn’t about having all the answers; it’s about mastering the voyage.” This is the conviction that drives today’s guest David Chauhan. With 17+ years navigating the often-turbulent waters of leadership – from factory floors to executive boardrooms across diverse industries – Dave has learned firsthand that old playbooks often fall short in our complex world. This journey inspired him to develop Nautical Leadership, a practical framework for leading with courage, clarity, and humanity, which he explores in his new book, “Captain, Set Sail.” His ability to not just weather storms, but also harness their power became the inspiration for Ricks live performance of the Classic song by STYX, “Come Sail Away”. Find out more about Dave and his groundbreaking book at www.davechauhan.com.
As an Author, Speaker, Strategist, and Thinker, Dave’s core mission is to equip leaders and organizations with the insights and tools to not just weather storms, but to harness their power. He believes in leadership that is both effective and fundamentally human-centric, built on strong values.
This philosophy is at the heart of Purple Spark Advisory, which he co-founded with Ish Kaily. They are deeply passionate about helping Australian SMEs thrive, providing accessible, enterprise-grade consulting and hands-on support. They partner with businesses to chart a clear course towards their boldest ambitions, delivering brilliant strategies and tangible results.
Whether he’s speaking to an audience, writing about new leadership perspectives, or working directly with a business on its strategic journey, his goal is to inspire and empower. He’s always keen to connect with fellow leaders, founders, and anyone committed to building a more purposeful and impactful future.
Let’s explore with Dave how we can navigate your challenges together. Find out more at www.davechauhan.com.
For the past five or six months, something significant has been unfolding in Dave’s world. After an incredible chapter with Amicus – a place that truly shaped him, and where he navigated some pretty choppy corporate waters together – he made a choice. It wasn’t easy, stepping away from something familiar. It felt a bit like sailing out of a well-known harbour, into… well, into the big, open sea, without a perfect map.
And to being honest with you, these few months? These have been a journey in themselves. Sitting with his own thoughts, really facing what leadership means in a world that feels unpredictable, messy, and sometimes… just plain hard. There were moments of real wrestling, wondering if these ideas swirling around in his head, these lessons learned from navigating my challenges, were even worth sharing. It felt vulnerable, honestly. The easy thing? Absolutely would have been to keep it all to himself, to stay quiet, to stick to what felt safe. But something… something just wouldn’t let him. That quiet pull towards believing that leadership can be something more, something deeply human, something that truly matters in the world… it just wouldn’t let him stay in the harbour.
And so, out of all that introspection, out of all that wrestling, something started to take shape. An idea. A framework. A way of seeing leadership not as command, but as courageous navigation. And it’s become a book. A book that’s poured out of him, filled with stories, with insights, with the deeply human lessons he’s learned about finding your compass, embracing the winds of change, and leading with heart, even when the storms hit.
And today, it feels both exciting and a little bit terrifying to share the first step of this new journey: www.davechauhan.com.
This website is more than just a digital space. It’s a starting point for a conversation. A place where he’ll be sharing more insights, reflections, and practical ideas on leadership. It’s an invitation to explore a different way of leading, a way that embraces uncertainty not as a threat, but as a landscape for courageous navigation.
But this is just the beginning. As Dave continues to refine the book for launch, he’s also incredibly excited to announce the next leg of this voyage: the launch of a new consulting practice-More details will be out soon (watch this space). He’s partnering with a truly exceptional individual, Ishpinder S. Kailey, whom he had the privilege of meeting and connecting with deeply during his MBA program at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign – Gies College of Business – University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. Ishpinder’s insights, her passion for impactful leadership, and her complementary strengths make her the perfect co-captain for this venture. Together, they’ll be working with leaders and organizations, helping them to navigate their unique challenges and chart their own courses towards greater purpose and success.
