What if the first step toward healing wasn’t medication or therapy—but simply telling the truth about what you want? In this deeply personal and transformative episode, Dr. Giuseppe Chiaramonte takes listeners back to Day Two of his mental breakdown, where one simple question from his psychologist cracked open the door to healing: “What is the one thing YOU want to do?”
This episode explores the heart of the 75/25 Rule—recognizing that 75% of our mental health can be strong and stable, while 25% will always hold pain, trauma, and challenge. Healing begins when we acknowledge both.
Dr. Chiaramonte shares how creating a healthy plan, embracing your truth, and saying it out loud can shift your entire life’s trajectory. Whether you’re a first responder, a trauma survivor, or someone silently struggling, this episode offers a roadmap to self-honesty, purpose, and hope.
“You deserve to be happy.”
