Listen Later

What if the path to healing isn’t about finding the right answers—but asking the right questions?

In this deeply inspiring conversation, Michael reconnects with Brianna Greenspan—author, advocate, and chronic illness warrior—who shares how powerful self-reflective questions can create radical shifts in our healing journeys. Through her new book, The Book of Questions: Living with Chronic Illness, Brianna offers a compassionate framework for building identity, resilience, and hope—even in the face of long-term adversity.

  • Discover how asking better questions can help you navigate uncertainty, pain, and personal growth.
  • Learn why self-compassion and internal dialogue matter more than external validation when healing.
  • Hear Brianna’s incredible journey from chronic illness and shame to strength, clarity, and purpose.

Listen now to learn how curiosity, courage, and the right questions can help you (or someone you love) feel whole again—even while living with chronic illness.

With Whole Again: A Fresh Approach to Healing, Growth & Resilience after Physical Trauma through Kintsugi Mindfulness, listeners explore resilience through personal stories of trauma, scars, and injury while learning to overcome PTSD, imposter syndrome, self-doubt, and perfectionism with self-compassion, self-love, and self-worth. Through insightful discussions on building resilience, fitness, and stress management, as well as mindfulness practices and digital wellness, the show offers practical tools such as breathwork, micro-dose meditation, grounding techniques, visualization, and daily affirmations for anxiety relief and stress reduction. Inspired by the art of kintsugi, the podcast embodies healing as a transformative process, encouraging a shift in perspective from worry and overwhelm to gratitude and personal growth. By exploring the mind-body connection, micro-dosing strategies for emotional well-being, and holistic approaches to self-care, this podcast empowers listeners to cultivate emotional resilience and live with greater balance and intention.
