  • Healing Old Wounds & Finding Yourself | Georgie Giovannoni
    Jul 27 2026

    In this episode, I sit down with Georgie Giovannoni for a raw conversation about the experiences that shape who we become. We explore the lasting impact of family trauma and childhood experiences, and how the stories, wounds, and patterns we carry can quietly follow us into adulthood.


    Georgie opens up about her own mental health journey, navigating misdiagnoses, relationships, self-discovery, and the ongoing process of understanding herself on a deeper level. We also dive into connection — our relationship with ourselves, with others, and what it means to feel truly seen and understood. This is a conversation about healing, identity, growth, and finding your way back to yourself when life pulls you in different directions. A thoughtful and vulnerable conversation that I know will resonate with so many people.

    In this episode of Mind Your Head, I sit down with Jake Stone — co-founder of Corrective Culture, former professional bodyboarder, and CHEK Practitioner.We unpack what it’s like carrying loss quietly, the anger and fear that can come with it, and how those moments can either harden you or wake you up. Jake opens up about the self-doubt that followed, the inner work he had to do to keep moving forward, and the mindset shifts that helped him rebuild from the inside out.We also get into the deeper “why” behind Corrective Culture — not just fixing bodies, but helping people feel safe in themselves again — plus practical tools around stress, routine, recovery, and creating a life that feels aligned, not just successful.If you’ve ever felt stuck in grief, scared to back yourself, or like you’re trying to hold it all together… this one will hit.
