In this episode of The HeadRush Podcast, we sit down with world-renowned psychiatrist and brain health pioneer Dr. Daniel Amen—a physician who has analyzed over 300,000 brain scans across 155 countries.

His message flips everything you’ve been told:

👉 Mental illness isn’t a “mind problem”… it’s a brain problem
👉 CTE is not always a death sentence
👉 And if your brain is damaged… you can make it better

We go deep into:

• The real impact of repeated head trauma (NFL, rodeo, military)
• Why helmets don’t prevent brain damage
• How SPECT scans reveal hidden brain injuries
• The link between brain damage and depression, anger, and memory loss 
• Why the “CTE is untreatable” narrative is dangerously incomplete 
• Practical ways to start healing your brain today

Dr. Amen also breaks down:

• Neuroinflammation and brain recovery
• Supplements, therapies, and lifestyle changes that actually work
• The role of faith, purpose, and mindset in healing
• Why you should never believe every thought you think

And one of the biggest takeaways:

If you or someone you love is struggling with:
TBI, CTE, PTSD, depression, anxiety, or brain fog…
this episode could change how you see everything.

In this powerful episode, families who lost loved ones to brain trauma share the moments they now recognize as early warnings—and why awareness alone isn’t enough.

This episode of The HeadRush Podcast comes from the M. Parkman Foundation Summit on Repeated Head Impacts—where conversations go beyond headlines and into real-life consequences.

Featuring Karen and Doug Zagel of the Patrick Risha CTE Awareness Foundation and Max Gray of CTE News, this discussion pulls back the curtain on what brain trauma actually looks like before it’s too late.

Not just in professional athletes—but in high school players, college athletes, and everyday lives.

You’ll hear:

• The early behavioral changes families dismissed as “normal”
• How repeated head impacts can lead to mental health decline and suicide
• Why “there is no safe age” when it comes to brain trauma
• The dangerous gap between diagnosis and direction
• What parents, athletes, and coaches need to start recognizing now

This isn’t just about CTE.

It’s about awareness, missed signs, and the cost of not knowing.

If you’re a parent, athlete, veteran, or someone searching for answers—this episode matters.

For decades, brain trauma has been misunderstood.

Veterans, athletes, and everyday people have been told their symptoms—depression, anxiety, brain fog—are psychological… or worse, dismissed entirely.

But what if the real issue is neuroinflammation—and we’ve just never had the tools to measure it?

In this episode of The HeadRush Podcast, Mark Gordon and Jeremy Bowling
join Paul and Corey to break down:
-The biological root of brain trauma and why it’s often missed
-How new biomarker testing is changing diagnosis and treatment
-Why traditional approaches focus on symptoms—not causes
-The connection between inflammation, mental health, and recovery
-Real stories of veterans finally finding answers after years of struggle

This isn’t just a conversation about trauma—
it’s about hope, healing, and redefining how we treat the brain.

If you’ve ever felt like something was off—but couldn’t prove it—
this episode is for you.

Brain trauma doesn’t end when the game is over.

In this powerful episode of The HeadRush Podcast, former NFL player Paul Frase and former professional rodeo athlete Corey Berry shine a light on the foundations and organizations working every day to help people affected by CTE, TES (Traumatic Encephalopathy Syndrome), TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury), RHI (Repeated Head Impacts), and repeated blast exposure.

They discuss the missions and impact of organizations like the Mac Parkman Foundation, Patrick Risha CTE Awareness Foundation, Concussion and CTE Foundation, Marshalling CTE, RL3 Foundation, Cowboys Helping Cowboys, and the growing mission of the HeadRush Foundation.

From youth athletes and veterans to former pros and families navigating the devastating effects of neurological injury, this episode is about education, prevention, advocacy, and action.

They also discuss:
• why repeated head impacts matter long before the professional level
• how families are driving national legislation and awareness
• tools like red light therapy, neurofeedback, and precision psychiatry
• why finding the right neurologist can change everything
• the long-term vision behind the HeadRush Foundation’s neurological retreat center

This isn’t just about concussions.
It’s about saving lives.

How to cope. How to find hope.

Can ibogaine help heal traumatic brain injury, PTSD, addiction, and even symptoms linked to CTE?

In this powerful episode of The HeadRush Podcast, Paul Frase and Corey Berry sit down with Trevor Millar, co-founder of Ambio Life Sciences, to break down one of the most controversial and promising conversations in modern brain health: ibogaine therapy.

Trevor shares how Ambio Life Sciences is helping veterans, former NFL players, special forces operators, and trauma survivors address traumatic brain injuries, repeated head impacts, neuroinflammation, addiction recovery, PTSD, depression, anxiety, and neurological dysfunction through plant-derived medicine and intensive therapeutic protocols.

They dive deep into the Stanford-backed ibogaine study involving special forces veterans with diagnosed TBI, where post-treatment fMRI scans showed significant improvements in blood flow and major reductions in PTSD, depression, anxiety, and disability scores. Trevor also shares real-world stories from Navy SEALs, former professional athletes, and severe TBI patients whose lives dramatically changed after treatment.

The conversation also explores how ibogaine differs from psilocybin, ayahuasca, and other psychedelic therapies, why states like Texas, Mississippi, Tennessee, and New Hampshire are pushing legislation forward, and why many believe ibogaine could become one of the most important breakthroughs in brain trauma recovery.

If you’ve been told “it’s all in your head,” this episode may change everything.

Because at The HeadRush Podcast, the mission remains the same:
How to cope and find hope.

A major shift just hit the medical and mental health world.

In this episode of The HeadRush Podcast, Paul Frase and Corey Berry react in real time to a newly signed executive order from Donald Trump directing the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to accelerate the review and research of psychedelic therapies—specifically focusing on Ibogaine.

For decades, substances like Ibogaine and psilocybin have been heavily restricted. Now, with federal funding, expedited clinical pathways, and renewed scientific attention, the conversation has shifted from prohibition… to possibility.

Paul and Corey break down:

• What the executive order actually does (and what it doesn’t)
• Why Ibogaine is gaining attention for PTSD, addiction, and brain trauma
• The role of veterans and real-world case stories in pushing this forward
• The science behind neuroplasticity, dendritic growth, and brain recovery
• Why traditional treatments like SSRIs often fall short
• The risks, safety concerns, and why this is NOT a free-for-all solution
• What this means for the future of mental health treatment in the U.S.

This episode is raw, real, and grounded in lived experience—from two men who understand the long-term effects of repeated head trauma.

⚠️ Important: This conversation is for awareness and discussion only. Paul and Corey are not doctors and are not recommending or prescribing any treatment. Always consult a qualified medical professional.

If this research delivers on its promise, it could reshape how we approach brain health, addiction recovery, and trauma healing.

But the question remains…

Is this the beginning of a breakthrough—or just the first step into unknown territory?

Dr. Mizyl Damayo, Medical Director of Paradise Behavioral Health, returns to The HeadRush Podcast to break down why traditional psychiatry often fails—and what it actually takes to create lasting healing.

After a decade in conventional practice, Dr. Damayo saw the same pattern over and over: patients cycling through medications with little to no long-term improvement. That realization led her to develop a precision-based approach—one that looks beyond symptoms and into the real drivers of mental health struggles.

In this episode, we go deep into:
Why up to 75% of psychiatric medications fail for patients

• The role of genetics (MTHFR, COMT, BDNF) in mental health treatment
• How neuroinflammation, hormones, and gut health impact the brain
• Why SSRIs don’t work for everyone—and what to do instead
• The connection between brain injury, mood disorders, and cognitive decline
• How the BrainWell Program combines traditional and integrative psychiatry
• Why “treatment-resistant depression” may be a misdiagnosis
• What it really means to create a “neuropermissive” environment for healing

Dr. Damayo also shares how tools like TMS, hormone optimization, genetic testing, and targeted supplementation can help patients who feel like they’ve tried everything.

If you’ve ever been told “it’s all in your head” but know something deeper is going on—this conversation will change how you think about mental health.

They also break down the vision for the HeadRush Foundation as an official 501(c)(3), including plans to help people access treatment, education, emotional support, and real-world resources. Corey and Paul share why the Foundation exists, who it aims to help, and how they hope to grow it into something much bigger, including long-term support options and a future neuro-rehab model built around hope, healing, and access to care.

This conversation also explores several recovery modalities and therapies they are researching or personally experiencing, including TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation), red light therapy / photobiomodulation, neurofeedback, vestibular therapy, cold exposure, and other emerging treatment conversations around brain health. They speak from lived experience, not from a physician’s chair, and repeatedly stress the importance of doing your own research and working with qualified medical professionals.

Along the way, Paul shares perspective from his 11-year NFL career, including what contracts looked like before today’s massive deals, while Corey brings the lens of professional rodeo, chronic symptoms, and his diagnosis journey. The bigger message is simple: this is about hope, awareness, access, and action for people living with the fallout of repeated head trauma.

If you or someone you love is dealing with the effects of repeated head impacts, brain injury symptoms, overstimulation, depression, memory issues, rage, anxiety, or neurological decline, this episode is for you.

What happens when decades of repeated head impacts finally catch up—and your brain starts to break down?

In this episode of The HeadRush Podcast, Paul Frase (11-year NFL veteran) and Corey Berry (former professional rodeo athlete) sit down with Rico Petrini, a former Oregon State linebacker who endured 25+ concussions and thousands of subconcussive hits before experiencing a life-altering neurological crash.

Years after football, Rico’s symptoms hit hard: severe depression, suicidal ideation, memory loss, sleep disruption, tremors, tinnitus, explosive anger, cognitive decline, and sensitivity to light and sound. What looked like a normal post-athletic life turned into a fight for survival.

Rico opens up about:

• Living with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and suspected CTE
• The delayed impact of repeated head trauma (RHI)
• Neuroinflammation and its role in brain dysfunction
• Brain scans, white matter damage, and nervous system breakdown
• Why so many athletes feel dismissed or misdiagnosed
• Diet, sleep, and anti-inflammatory recovery strategies
• His experience with photobiomodulation (red light therapy) through a University of Utah study

Most importantly—he shares what actually helped him start rebuilding his brain, restoring function, and finding hope again.

This episode is for:

• Athletes (football, hockey, rodeo, wrestling, rugby, etc.)
• Veterans and anyone exposed to repeated head impacts
• People struggling with post-concussion symptoms
• Families and caregivers navigating behavioral or cognitive changes
• Anyone dealing with depression, brain fog, or emotional instability after trauma

If you’ve ever been told “you’re fine” but know something isn’t right—this conversation matters.

At The HeadRush Podcast, the mission stays the same: cope and find hope.

Not every product marketed to “protect” athletes is solving the real problem.

In this episode of The HeadRush Podcast, Paul Frase and Corey Berry break down the hard truth about brain trauma in contact sports, including football, rodeo, wrestling, hockey, and other activities involving repeated head impacts. They challenge the growing market of products and technologies promoted as concussion solutions and explain why reducing impact at the surface is not the same as protecting the brain inside the skull.

This conversation digs into Guardian Caps, youth football, practice contact, concussion risk, repeated head impacts, CTE, traumatic brain injury, and the dangerous false sense of security that can come from gear marketed as “safer.” Paul and Corey also discuss why limiting contact in practice, delaying exposure to concussive sports, and educating parents and coaches may matter more than expensive add-ons.

If you are a parent, coach, athlete, caregiver, veteran, or someone concerned about brain health, TBI, CTE, concussion prevention, and repeated head impacts, this is a conversation you need to hear.

When brain injury makes people feel isolated, support can become survival.

In this episode of The HeadRush Podcast, Paul Frase and Corey Berry sit down with Tyler Ambrose, Peer Support Coordinator at the Concussion & CTE Foundation, to talk about the real impact of peer support groups for people living with concussion, concussion symptoms, traumatic brain injury (TBI), suspected CTE, post-concussion syndrome (PCS), and repeated head impacts.

Tyler explains how support groups help patients and caregivers feel heard, understood, and less alone while providing real resources, connection, and hope.

The conversation covers CTE awareness, brain trauma, caregiver stress, suicidal ideation, memory struggles, emotional volatility, recovery support, and why community matters so much when someone is fighting to hold onto life and identity.

The Concussion & CTE Foundation, co-founded by Dr. Chris Nowinski and Dr. Robert Cantu, works with leading physicians and professionals connected to Boston University to advance research and support for people affected by CTE, TBI, and repeated head impacts. In this episode, Tyler shares how that mission shows up in real life through peer-to-peer connection and support.

If you or someone you love is dealing with brain injury, concussion recovery, suspected CTE, or caregiver burnout, this episode is a reminder that you are not alone.

Mike Dempsey’s life is the definition of resilience. Born and raised in Brooklyn, he chased elite athletics—football, baseball, even boxing—before building a successful corporate career. Then September 11, 2001 changed everything.

Mike was inside the World Trade Center complex when the first plane hit. Minutes later, near Tower One, he was knocked unconscious as the second plane struck—suffering a fractured skull and internal bleeding. What followed wasn’t just survival. It was years of navigating PTSD, memory loss, brain fog, vertigo, executive function challenges, and the terrifying experience of not recognizing your own brain.

In this powerful episode of The HeadRush Podcast, Paul Frase and Corey Berry sit down with Mike to unpack:

• What it was like inside the WTC on 9/11
• The hidden aftermath of traumatic brain injury (TBI)
• Repeated head impacts (RHI) and long-term brain health
• A later concussion that “broke the camel’s back”
• The darkest months—and how he fought back
• Neurofeedback therapy and emerging recovery modalities
• Why “finding your helpers” can save your life

This conversation is raw, honest, and hopeful. If you or someone you love is dealing with TBI symptoms, PTSD, anxiety, depression, or post-trauma life, this episode delivers clarity and courage.

Mantra: How to cope and find hope.

Roy and Rich share what happens when elite and grassroots athletes hit a breaking point and are told it’s “just anxiety” or “just depression,” despite years of collisions, concussions, and sub-concussive hits. They break down the differences between rugby league and rugby union, the cumulative damage of contact sports, and why so many players—and their families—are left without answers or support.

This conversation goes beyond sport. It addresses the families, spouses, and caregivers who carry the weight alongside those suffering, and why the Marshalling CTE Foundation was created as a support-first community when institutions, leagues, and healthcare systems fall short.

If you’ve experienced brain fog, rage, depression, anxiety, memory loss, or personality changes after head trauma—and felt dismissed or unheard—this episode is for you.

You are not weak. You are not alone. And this is not just in your head.

Mantra of the episode: Stronger together.

If you’ve been told “it’s all in your head,” but you know something is wrong—listen closely.
