Behavior Leaves Clues

In this powerful episode, Monica sits down with Kim Witczak, national patient-safety advocate, speaker, and “accidental advocate”—whose journey began after the tragic loss of her husband, Woody. What started as a search for answers became a mission to bring truth, transparency, and accountability to the healthcare system.

Together, Monica and Kim unpack how blind trust in the medical system can keep us from asking the questions that save lives. From understanding FDA gaps to knowing your rights as a patient, this conversation will empower you to speak up, advocate for yourself, and protect the people you love.

This episode is a masterclass in courage, curiosity, and reclaiming your voice when the system fails you.

“Pain is the biggest gateway to transformation.” — Kim Witczak

Kim Witczak is an international speaker, advocate, and founder of Woody Matters, a non-profit dedicated to patient safety and pharmaceutical accountability. She serves as a Consumer Representative on the FDA Psychopharmacologic Drug Advisory Committee and has spent over 20 years fighting for transparency, informed consent, and truth in healthcare. Her upcoming book and screenplay chronicle her journey from tragedy to transformation, proving that one voice can spark systemic change.

What happens when the story you’ve been afraid to tell becomes the one that sets you free?

In this heartfelt episode, Monica sits down with her dear friend and bestselling author Cristina P. Simmons, founder of The Soul Story Collective Publishing Company and bestselling author of Eat Your Feelings. Together they explore how trauma shows up in the body, the silent battles women carry behind the scenes, and what it really means to come home to yourself after seasons of grief, shame, and survival.

Cristina opens up about the emotional roots of her relationship with food, the healing power of mirror work and writing, and the faith that helped her rebuild joy after unimaginable loss. She also shares how she created her publishing company to give women a safe space to tell their stories — and how speaking her own truth became the most powerful therapy she never expected.

This conversation will leave you grounded, hopeful, and reminded that healing isn’t about perfection—it’s about permission.

In this intimate solo episode, Monica invites you to peel back the layers of who you’ve become to survive—and remember who you were created to be. Through raw storytelling and neuroscience-backed insight, she explores how early conditioning, trauma, and constant striving disconnect us from our authentic selves. You’ll learn how to rebuild safety in your body, listen to your intuition, and begin living from truth instead of performance.

“You don’t have to become someone new—you just have to remember who you were before you forgot.”
When you regulate your nervous system, you reconnect with peace, purpose, and self-trust. Healing isn’t about fixing yourself—it’s about returning home to who you’ve always been.

Who was I before I learned to shrink, please, or perform—and what would it look like to honor that version of me again?
