The Concussion Coach

Jordan Slingerland is a recent high school graduate from Gilbert, Arizona, currently in flight school. She has lived with misophonia since the age of 12 and has become a thoughtful advocate for herself and others with the condition. Jordan shares her personal journey of navigating school, family life, friendships, and work while managing intense reactions to common sounds like chewing, sniffling, and pen clicking. Her insight, vulnerability, and practical strategies offer hope and validation for anyone affected by this often-misunderstood neurological condition.

In this episode of the Concussion Coach Podcast, host Bethany Lewis steps outside the usual brain injury discussion to explore misophonia – a chronic neurological condition where specific everyday sounds trigger intense emotional and physical reactions such as rage, panic, or disgust. Bethany is joined by her cousin, Jordan Slingerland, who shares her lived experience with misophonia, from her first trigger at age 12 to developing coping strategies that allow her to reclaim joy and connection. Together they discuss the fight-or-flight response, the isolating nature of the condition, practical accommodations for school and work, tools like AirPods and loop earplugs, and the importance of self-advocacy and family support. This episode offers invaluable insight for anyone with misophonia, their loved ones, and even concussion survivors who deal with sound sensitivity.

In this returning episode of The Concussion Coach Podcast, host Bethany Lewis (The Concussion Coach) reconnects with Sharik Peck and Katyrra Larson to explore the latest developments with the Rezzimax PainTuner—an external vagus nerve stimulator that uses gentle resonance (in the frequency range of a cat's purr) to calm the nervous system. Sharik shares exciting updates, including a new Philippines-based study using the device to help breast cancer patients manage stress, pain, and GI dysfunction, as well as ongoing TMJ research in the US. The conversation dives into innovative applications of the tool: a new mouthpiece attachment for cranial nerve stimulation (helping a brain-injured patient regain speech and focus), and scraping techniques that combine vibration with myofascial release. 

Katyrra provides practical calming strategies for acute anxiety and startle responses (including humming with the tongue between the teeth). Sharik also shares a powerful trauma release protocol (Stress Down Regulation/Resilience program) that combines breathing, flexor engagement, and sensory input to help the brain reorganize traumatic memories—a protocol that does not require the device but is accelerated by it. The episode emphasizes nervous system regulation as the cornerstone of concussion recovery, and Bethany shares her personal enthusiasm for the tool, including a listener discount and money-back guarantee.

In this powerful crossover episode, Bethany Lewis (The Concussion Coach), a neurological occupational therapist and certified life coach, joins Bruce Parkman of the Broken Brains podcast to shatter common myths about concussions. Bethany explains that you don't need to be knocked out—or even hit your head—to sustain a concussion, and that the severity of the impact doesn't always predict the outcome. She discusses how concussions are often misdiagnosed as mental health issues (anxiety, depression, ADHD), the critical link between repetitive head impacts and long-term brain health, and how women and girls are more susceptible yet severely understudied. Bethany offers hope through neuroplasticity and whole-person recovery, while providing essential advice for parents: believe your child’s symptoms, prioritize their brain over the sport, and advocate for proper care. This episode is a must-listen for athletes, parents, coaches, and anyone wanting to understand the true impact of a "silent injury."

Michael Flomenhaft, Esq. is the principal of the Flomenhaft Law Firm PLLC in New York, New York. His practice focuses on trying cases for victims of traumatic brain injury and severe chronic pain. Renowned for his vast knowledge of neuroscience—including neuroimaging, neuropsychology, neurobiology, and the neuroanatomy of chronic pain—Mr. Flomenhaft serves on the board of advisors for the Center for Neuroscience and Law at Fordham Law School and was a director of neurolaw for the Program for Imaging and Cognitive Sciences at Columbia University. He is a graduate of Boston University School of Law and the Trial Lawyers College.

In this second conversation with attorney Michael Flomenhaft, host Bethany Lewis dives deeper into the most challenging aspects of concussion recovery and litigation. They begin by tackling the difficult subject of malingering—why it is often alleged, how objective imaging and biographical evidence can refute it, and why standard MRIs are insufficient for visualizing white matter damage. Michael explains why traditional concussion return-to-play protocols are "gray matter protocols" applied to a white matter injury, leaving athletes at unrecognized risk. The discussion then shifts to chronic pain, its atrophic (brain-shrinking) effects, the role of specialists like osteopaths and craniosacral therapists for headache relief, and the powerful potential of neurofeedback in brain rehabilitation. This episode provides essential education for anyone navigating the legal, medical, and personal realities of persistent post-concussion symptoms.

Jamie MoCrazy is a former professional freestyle skier, X Games record-setter, and critical traumatic brain injury survivor. Once known for pushing the limits in big air and slopestyle, her life changed dramatically during a competition in Whistler, Canada. Now, she uses her platform to raise awareness about the long-term effects of TBI and the importance of proper diagnosis, treatment, and recovery.

Grace “Fruit” Mauzy (MA in Psychology, PhD candidate in Mind-Body Medicine) is Jamie’s mother, who played a critical role as both a caregiver and researcher throughout Jamie’s recovery. She brings a unique dual perspective, combining academic expertise with lived experience navigating the complexities of brain injury care.

In this powerful episode of the Concussion Coach Podcast, host Bethany Lewis sits down with Jamie and Grace MoCrazy to discuss their remarkable journey through severe traumatic brain injury and recovery. Jamie shares the story of her 2015 skiing accident—which left her in a coma with a death report written before she left the mountain—and how she has no memory of the event or the two months following. Grace describes the harrowing moment she received the call, the breaking of protocol in stimulating Jamie’s system in ways that contradicted hospital protocol (touching, singing, massaging, playing music), and the science that supported those instincts.

Together, they explore the similarities and differences between severe TBI and concussion, and why healing cannot happen when the nervous system is stuck in sympathetic (fight/flight) mode. Grace explains the gut-brain axis, how the microbiome shrinks under stress and craves processed foods, and why nausea is the gut telling the brain it isn’t healing. Jamie introduces her powerful reframing tool: “Let’s stop and look at the view”—a strategy that transforms guilt into grace. The episode closes with details on the MoCrazy Method (a 6-week virtual mind-body therapy program) and the iFly Alive to Thrive in-person event, both designed to help brain injury survivors and their caregivers rebuild connection, joy, and a thriving “2.0” life.

Alyssa Chang is a neuroscience health coach and the creator of The Regulation Method, a framework designed to help people rewire the patterns behind chronic stress, anxiety, pain, and fatigue. Her work integrates applied neuroscience with a trauma-informed lens, shifting the focus from fixing symptoms to creating safety in the body. A former athlete who personally struggled with chronic fatigue, vertigo, and brain fog after extreme training, Alyssa now helps others move beyond temporary relief towards sustainable, nervous-system-driven results.

In this episode, Bethany Lewis interviews neuroscience coach Alyssa Chang about the critical link between the nervous system and concussion recovery. Alyssa shares her personal journey from competitive athletics and chronic illness to becoming a brain-based practitioner. They discuss why "foundational" elements like nutrition and hydration are essential for neuroplasticity, how to interpret symptoms (like pain and brain fog) as the brain’s attempt to protect you, and why setbacks are not failures but data points. Alyssa also offers practical, at-home strategies for regulating the nervous system and provides specific advice for loved ones and caregivers on how to offer support without increasing the patient's "threat bucket."

Good Mood Method is a nervous system therapy program designed for individuals recovering from physical and emotional trauma. The approach combines music, movement, and meaning to help clients rebuild biological safety in their nervous system and feel like themselves again after traumatic experiences.

Founded by Gilad Miller, a Polyvagal and Logotherapy Practitioner, Foundation Training Specialist, and Trauma-Informed Somatic Coach who recovered from a moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), Good Mood Method leverages clinically-proven somatic practices to create sustainable healing. By emphasizing recovery at home between appointments, the program helps the nervous system anchor itself in safety and presence—the foundation for a meaningful recovery.

Summary of the Episode

In this episode, host Bethany Lewis (The Concussion Coach) speaks with Gilad Miller about his journey of recovery from a moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) sustained in a skateboarding accident. Gilad shares his experience of being discharged from the hospital and later being told he was “medically fine,” despite battling debilitating symptoms like insomnia, sensory overload, and depression.

The conversation explores the critical gap between physical recovery and holistic healing, emphasizing the need to treat the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. Gilad introduces his integrative approach, the Good Mood Method, which is built on three pillars:

1. Music: Using the Safe and Sound Protocol (a Polyvagal Theory-based listening therapy) to retune the nervous system and reduce sensory sensitivity.

2. Movement: Utilizing a trauma-informed version of Foundation Training to restore the body’s structural integrity and teach the nervous system that it is safe.

3. Meaning: Employing Logotherapy (inspired by Viktor Frankl) to help individuals define what “getting better” truly means to them and anchor their recovery in a sense of purpose.

Gilad and Bethany discuss the importance of social connection for co-regulation, how to build a compassionate relationship with one’s own body, and the necessity of moving at a pace that feels safe to the nervous system.

Resources Mentioned

• Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP): A five-hour listening therapy based on Polyvagal Theory designed to reduce sound sensitivities and improve social engagement.

• Foundation Training: A bodyweight movement practice focused on restoring the posterior chain (spine, hips, and head carriage) to build structural stability.

• Logotherapy: A therapeutic approach developed by Viktor Frankl focused on finding meaning in all forms of existence, even suffering.
