What happens when life hits hard before you even know who you are? At just 26, Brescia Dover has faced anorexia, bipolar disorder, and cancer, yet her story is one of deep transformation.

After a fall in fifth grade triggered an eating disorder, it wasn’t traditional treatment but a horse named Blue that helped her heal. When bipolar disorder brought psychosis, she rebuilt a life that protects her mental health. And when cancer came at 20, she found unexpected perspective and strength.

Now thriving as a business owner and podcast host, Brescia shows that vulnerability is a superpower. This episode is a reminder that even our darkest moments can shape powerful purpose.

This podcast dives deep into real, raw topics—think vulnerability, triggers, and childhood trauma. But just so we're super clear: I’m not a licensed therapist, mental health professional, or anything close. I’m just a human sharing stories, lessons, and life hacks based on personal experience and a whole lot of curiosity.

So, while you might find some golden nuggets here, this is not therapy and should never replace professional mental health care. If you or someone you love is going through it, please—seriously—reach out to a licensed therapist or healthcare provider. You deserve the real deal.
