Resilience with a side of sass.
A podcast where faith meets neuroscience—and healing gets real.

In this episode of Diamonds in Dumpster Fires, I’m joined by the insightful Danielle Sangalli—licensed marriage and family therapist, relationship coach, and the brilliant mind behind the term single-spousing. If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing all the emotional heavy lifting in your relationship while your partner feels miles away (even if they’re sitting right next to you), this conversation is for you.

If you’ve ever wondered how neurological conditions like ADHD or autism affect how we handle stress, relationships, or life transitions like divorce — this episode is for you. I’m joined by Dr. Robert Melillo, a leading expert in brain development and functional neurology, for a fascinating, deeply practical conversation about what’s really going on beneath the surface during moments of emotional overwhelm.

What if the money stories you’ve been told—especially in the church—are actually holding you back from stepping into the life God has for you?

In this powerhouse episode of Diamonds in Dumpster Fires, Melie sits down with Christian entrepreneur, speaker, and best-selling author Janine Mix, who went from living in a cockroach-filled apartment and $120,000 in debt… to building a multimillion-dollar life by 33.
