In this episode of The Resilient Show, Chad Robichaux is joined by clinical health psychologist and freediving instructor, Dr. Lindsay Bira. Filmed on North Bimini Island, their conversation unpacks how chronic stress and untreated PTSD inflame the body and accelerate heart disease, and why evidence-based exposure therapy, paired with slow-breath drills and the mammalian dive reflex, can reverse the damage. Chad and Dr. Bira plan dynamic- and static-apnea challenges that turn freediving into a “bench-press for the frontal lobe,” teach viewers how interoceptive breath-holds stop panic in its tracks, and explore faith, purpose, and community as force-multipliers for long-term healing and elite performance underwater and on land.

The conversation moves from the brink of divorce and rock-bottom addiction to the faith-driven sobriety that rebuilt his family, the founding of Blu Bearing Solutions to train protectors with a servant’s heart, and the daily disciplines that keep him grounded in purpose today.
