Overcome is a mental health podcast for people who look “fine” on the outside but feel exhausted, stuck, or quietly struggling on the inside. Hosted by Travis White, Overcome goes beyond surface-level mental health advice to explore the deeper roots of anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, and emotional pain. These are honest, sometimes uncomfortable conversations about what it really takes to heal not just cope. Each episode features real stories and thoughtful discussions with advocates, professionals, and people who have lived through loss, trauma, illness, addiction, and identity-shifting life events. Together, we explore healing through personal responsibility, self-awareness, resilience, faith-adjacent meaning, and practical insight—without toxic positivity or quick fixes. This podcast is for you if: You’re tired of “just manage your symptoms” advice You’re high-functioning but emotionally worn down

Why You Keep Repeating the Same Emotional Patterns | Ben Oofana
Sep 28, 20261h 17m
Why do painful emotional and relationship patterns keep repeating, even after you understand where they came from? Ben Oofana joins Travis White to share how his unconventional path into traditional healing, meditation, and martial arts led him to confront his own trauma and recurring relationship patterns. He explains why insight alone may not create change and why people often wait for a crisis before beginning deeper emotional work. Together, they explore what it means to face difficult emotions, become more aware of how stress shows up in the body, and build resilience by continuing to engage with life instead of avoiding pain. In this conversation, you'll hear: How Ben began training with traditional healers as a teenager Why understanding an emotional wound is different from working through it How unresolved pain can surface in relationships and repeated patterns Why crisis often becomes the catalyst for change A grounding practice for noticing emotions and where they appear in the body How consistent inner work can strengthen emotional resilience Ben's takeaway is simple: keep facing life. Growth is an ongoing process of showing up, working with what you feel, and asking for support when you need it.

When Pushing Through Makes You Sicker: Chronic Pain, Opioids, and Redefining Resilience | Nancy Deyo
Sep 7, 202656 min
What happens when the mindset that made you successful starts making you sicker? Former Silicon Valley CEO Nancy Deyo set out to climb Mount Kilimanjaro after a painful business setback. A serious spinal injury on the mountain began a 15-year struggle with chronic pain, opioid dependence, anxiety, depression, and a medical system that often doubted what she was experiencing. Nancy shares how she stopped treating resilience as endless endurance and began rebuilding her life through acceptance, adaptation, self-trust, and support. Her recovery did not mean returning to her old life—it meant creating a new one that honored her body without surrendering her purpose. In this conversation, you'll hear: How a Kilimanjaro injury changed Nancy's life Why chronic pain and mental health cannot be separated How opioid dependence can develop during legitimate pain treatment What medical dismissal does to a patient's sense of reality Why pushing harder can sometimes delay healing How Nancy rebuilt her identity, education, career, and relationships A healthier definition of resilience based on listening and adapting Nancy's message for anyone who feels stuck: you are not alone, advocacy matters, and there may be a way forward even if it looks different from the life you expected.

What if falling apart is not proof that you lack resilience—but the beginning of learning how to rebuild? In this solo episode, Travis White challenges the idea that resilient people never struggle, need help, or change direction. He reflects on the seizure cluster, depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts that forced him to tell the truth about what he needed and begin rebuilding with therapy, family support, healthier choices, and practical coping skills. Drawing from his own experience and lessons shared by past guests, Travis explains why resilience is not emotional armor. It is the ability to adapt, ask for help, choose safer tools, and take the next honest step at your real capacity—even when recovery is not linear. In this episode, you'll hear: • Why struggling is not a character flaw • The difference between perseverance and self-abandonment • How support, accountability, and honesty strengthen resilience • Why setbacks do not erase earlier progress • How to apply the FAITH framework: Foundation, Attitude, Integrity, Trust, and Humility • A practical 24-hour challenge for taking one manageable next step The takeaway: You do not have to prove that you were born strong. Resilience grows when you practice the next skill, trust the next safe person, and make the next honest choice.

What 83 Episodes Taught Me About Mental Health | Travis White
Aug 24, 202657 min
What changes when you spend more than a year listening to people speak honestly about depression, anxiety, addiction, trauma, grief, chronic illness, burnout, and recovery? In this solo episode, Travis reflects on the lessons that have stayed with him after 83 episodes of Overcome. Drawing from guests’ stories and his own experiences with seizures, anxiety, and depression, he explores the patterns that have made him more compassionate toward himself and others. This conversation is a reminder that people are more complicated than they appear, recovery rarely follows a straight line, and no diagnosis gets to define the rest of your story. In this episode, you'll hear: • Why looking okay does not always mean someone is okay • Why a setback does not erase the progress you have made • How protective behaviors can become painful patterns • Why connection often matters more than having the perfect advice • How physical and mental health affect one another • Why grace and accountability can coexist • How small, repeatable actions rebuild trust in yourself • Why mental-health care is never one-size-fits-all • How to separate your identity from your diagnosis or struggle • What it means to use your story without romanticizing your pain Travis’s closing message is simple: your story matters, but what happened to you does not have to determine what happens next.

Aug 17, 202635 min
https://stronger413.com/ https://www.facebook.com/p/Stronger-413-100037763807188/ What happens when the identity you built in the rodeo arena is taken away in an instant? In this episode, Travis talks with Tim Malm, former competitive calf roper and founder of Stronger 413, about the traumatic brain injury that changed the direction of his life. Tim shares how years of recovery reshaped his faith, his definition of strength, and the way he approaches each new day. Together, they explore the frustration of slow progress, the difficulty of asking for and accepting help, and why Tim stopped asking “Why me?” and began asking “Why not me?” His story is a reminder that even when life looks nothing like you planned, purpose and hope can still grow. In this conversation, you'll hear: • How Tim’s 2010 roping accident led to a traumatic brain injury • Why his faith became more personal during recovery • How Philippians 4:13 inspired Stronger 413 • What it means to improve by one percent each day • Why accepting help can become a blessing for everyone involved • How Tim redefined strength as persistence, patience, and refusing to quit Tim’s message is simple: draw near to God, keep trying, and never give up.

If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
How do agency tiers work?
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?
That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
