The Advisor with Stacey Chillemi

Some lives are built to last — Victor Bretting's runs eight generations deep in Texas soil.

A childhood shaped by a missing father, a tireless mother, and nearly 50 years in concrete construction gave him a masterclass in accountability, perseverance, and what legacy actually means.

In this episode, Victor gets honest about failed marriages, emotional walls, and the realization that healing starts the moment you admit something is wrong.

He also shares how a retirement ranch quietly became a place of restoration for veterans, youth, and families in hard seasons.

Emotional literacy is not something you teach a child with a talk. It is something they absorb by watching you, every time you name a feeling out loud, own a mistake, or sit with an uncomfortable emotion instead of burying it.

Dr. Deana Plaskon, licensed clinical mental health expert and author of Bella and Bird the Emotion Explorers, explains why the adult in the room is always the real lesson. Walk away knowing exactly what your child is already learning from you.

Hydrogen therapy is one of the fastest-growing areas in health science, and most of the products being sold are missing the single component that makes it work. Pure hydrogen is electrically neutral — it cannot neutralize free radicals or stop oxidative damage on its own.

George Wiseman, founder of Eagle Research and nearly four decades into his research on Brown's Gas, explains the third gas his electrolyzers produce — Electrically Expanded Water — a negatively charged cold plasma that donates electrons directly to free radicals, increases EZ gel formation by 300%, and gives the body the energy it needs to heal. After this episode, you will never look at a hydrogen product the same way.

You are not overreacting. You may just be remembering.

Trauma-informed life coach and author Ernest Ellender, PhD, explains why a small moment can trigger a large emotional response, and how to catch the pattern before it takes over.

He unpacks how childhood stress shows up in adult confidence, work habits, relationships, and the guilt that follows rest.

Gut skin connection explains the mirror moment so many women know: doing everything right and still seeing dull skin, redness, and hair in the drain. The problem is not the products. Ayurveda teaches that the gut whispers while the skin and scalp scream, and a dysregulated nervous system shows up on your face first.

Mangala D'Sa, an Ayurvedic practitioner and founder of Chasma Skin, spent years chasing solutions before she found the root. You stop layering and start listening.
