Your host, Deana Brown Mitchell is the founder of the Realize Foundation whose mission is to reduce the number of humans who struggle with suicidal ideation by creating a world where having the conversation becomes commonplace. Like many, she kept silent about her own struggles with mental health for 23 years due to shame and stigma. It wasn't until she lost a friend to suicide that Deana realized the power of sharing our stories. In this podcast, we invite guests who have overcome adversity to share their journey and provide a safe space for vulnerability and openness. Our goal is to let other silent humans know that they are not alone and that there is always hope. Whether you are struggling with your mental health or simply feeling alone, this podcast is for you. Come join our community and let's inspire each other to turn our Scars to Stars.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-25T02:19:49.095846+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/scars-to-stars-podcast-6384270"},"episode":{"title":"The Brain Health Breakthrough: How Omega Balance & Simple Testing Can Change Everything","slug":"the-brain-health-breakthrough-how-omega-balance-simple-testing-can-change-everything","published_at":"2025-12-26T08:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/scars-to-stars-podcast-6384270/the-brain-health-breakthrough-how-omega-balance-simple-testing-can-change-everything","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/scars-to-stars-podcast-6384270","url":"https://scars-to-stars-podcast.captivate.fm/episode/bibi-frederick","audio_url":"https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/a7316de8-4832-4894-8ddb-e0800542c913.mp3","summary":"In this episode of Scars to Stars , I sit down with Bibi, a former nurse who’s passionate about brain health and whole-body wellness. She shares why omega-3 and omega-6 balance matters so much for inflammation, mood, and cognitive function—and what makes her approach unique: at-home dry blood testing that shows your baseline and tracks progress over time. We talk about how most people are unknowingly out of balance, why that can impact energy, brain function, and overall health, and how Bibi saw a dramatic shift in her son’s mood and emotional regulation after correcting severe deficiency. If you’ve been trying to “eat healthy” but still don’t feel your best, this conversation offers a hopeful, practical perspective on supporting your brain and body from the inside out. #scarstostars #suicideprevention #mentalhealthawareness #conversations #community #personalstory #havetheconversation #savealifechallenge #virtualevents #amazonbestseller #suicideawareness #mentalhealthmatters #kindnessmatters #omega3 #omega6 #balanceoil #brainhealth","meta_description":"In this episode of Scars to Stars , I sit down with Bibi, a former nurse who’s passionate about brain health and whole-body wellness.
