Episode 46 : Dr. Toby Brooks!

On this edition of Reset and Rise To The Unbreakable With Amanda Moore we welcome Dr. Toby Brooks to the show! Here's his bio : Dr. Toby Brooks is a professor, performance scientist, speaker, and host of the Becoming UnDone podcast whose work lives at the intersection of resilience, identity, purpose, and personal growth. Over the course of his career, he has served as a collegiate educator, researcher, athletic trainer, strength coach, leadership developer, and academic administrator, helping high achievers navigate pressure, reinvention, burnout, and life’s unexpected setbacks. But the heart of Toby’s story isn’t professional success—it’s learning how to rebuild after life falls apart. Growing up in rural Southern Illinois, Toby’s identity was deeply tied to athletics, achievement, and performance. When his basketball career unexpectedly ended at 18, he found himself facing a devastating identity crisis that left him questioning his worth and direction. What felt like “just a game” on the outside became the unraveling of everything he thought defined him. That season of loss eventually spiraled into deeper struggles with fear, anxiety, shame, depression, and hopelessness. After the collapse of long-held dreams, relationships, and certainty about the future, Toby hit a personal rock bottom that forced him to confront the hardest questions of his life: Who am I without the things I’ve built my identity around? And how do you keep going when you can’t see the path ahead? Rather than allowing fear to define him, Toby began the long process of rebuilding from brokenness. Through faith, resilience, education, leadership, and an unwavering commitment to growth, he transformed those experiences into a message that now resonates with audiences around the world. His work challenges people to stop hiding behind performance and perfection and instead embrace vulnerability, courage, and purpose-driven growth. Today, Toby speaks openly about overcoming fear, navigating adversity, and learning that courage is not the absence of fear—it’s the willingness to move forward anyway. A first generation college student, he currently holds 5 academic degrees including a PhD from the University of Arizona, an MBA from LSU Shreveport, and is working on a 6th, a masters degree in applied physiology from the University of Florida. Whether discussing leadership, mental health, identity loss, burnout, reinvention, or personal growth, his message is grounded in authenticity and lived experience rather than theory alone. At his core, Toby believes that some of life’s greatest transformations are born from our hardest moments—and that setbacks, while painful, often become the very thing that shapes us into who we were meant to become. His coaching app is available at ScienceoftheComeback.com and he also works 1:1 with individuals who are seeking to rebuild after life has failed to go according to plan.

Episode 43 : Kimberly McBee!

On this edition of Reset and Rise to the Unbreakable With Amanda Moore, we welcome Kimberly McBee to the show! Here's her bio in her own words : Hi, my name is Kimberly McBee, this is my story. As a child I was severely abused physically and mentally by my father. The mental abuse went on my entire life until I removed him from my life in November. The physical abuse ended at 15. My dad is a true textbook psychopath. In 9th grade my Algebra teacher told my mom I should see a therapist. I was later diagnosed with PTSD. At 19 I started drinking to party. It quickly turned in to full blown alcoholism. I drank to numb the past. I didn't want to feel anything. I slowed down the drinking in my mid 20's. That was until my ex husband knocked me out fracturing my cheek bones. When I woke up on the floor he was standing over me. He held me hostage in our house for 3 days. When he finally went to work I ran never looking back. I started drinking much heavier than before. I was a "functioning" alcoholic 16 years. I went to detox 8 or 9 times. In 2018 I did stop for 18 months until I was abused again. In June of last year I went to detox. I found out that my job had fired me for going. I drank as soon as I got out. I had a job I loved for 6 years gone. My family life was falling apart, I isolated and drank until I couldn't anymore. The doctors told my husband he would be burying me in 6 months. I went to my husband and daughter in November of last year. I told them I had to go detox and be taken to a 30 day program. I told them either I could miss one Thanksgiving if I go or all of them if I don't go. For my 30 day program I went to a facility called Hammocks on the Edisto. It was time to face my demons. Hammocks completely changed my life. I went in knowing I would do whatever it took. The staff there is incredible. The therapist want you to really trust them and dive deep. So I did. I spent the time to focus on and fix my inner child. I had never faced my past, only ran from it. All while being cared for, motivated, and really listened to by therapists, counselors and the 14 other women in the house for treatment. Those women are now my family for life. We all speak to each other every day. Coming out of the Hammocks I was scared to leave my safe bubble. They gave me the tools to stay sober and thrive in my new life. I also found my faith in God again while I was there. You see, my father was a deacon. It turned me away from church. God has worked miracles in my life since. I no longer struggle with numbing myself from the past. I left the past and haven't looked back. I occasionally suffer with triggers from my PTSD but it no longer controls me. I wake up each day smiling, thankful, and blessed. I will be 6 months sober on 5/17/26!! I graduated from my IOP. I have been invited to be a key note speaker at a women's convention later this year. I gave my testimony in church and my husband posted it. I've received hundreds of messages. People who are struggling or just want to support me.

Episode 42 : PWBA Bowler Rina Sabo!

On this edition of Reset and Rise to the Unbreakable With Amanda Moore, we welcome PWBA Bowler Rina Sabo to the show! Here's her bio in her own words : I'm a Colorado Native. I started bowling at the age of 12 years old in my first junior league at Bowlero Lanes in Lakewood, Colorado. My passion for the sport grew even deeper during my junior years by bowling several other leagues and tournaments. When I turned 19, I started bowling in adult leagues and my passion for the sport grew into ambition. My ambition and love for the sport have earned me several Colorado Springs Queens titles and several USBC Colorado State women's titles which I'm honored to say in August 2025, I got inducted into the USBC Colorado State Hall of Fame. My dream was to become a professional bowler. With the relaunch of the PWBA in 2015, I was given an opportunity to achieve that dream. After many tournaments, I became a PWBA member in 2019, which opened the door further in my journey to achieve my dream. I am proud to say I have 3 top 10 finishes in the PWBA regional tournaments in 2024. I am honored and blessed to say that my dream of becoming a member of senior Team USA came true in October 2025. My first gold medal was in the doubles event with a great partner, Jodi Woessner. My second gold medal was in the team event with some great teammates, Lynda Barnes, Dana Ausec and Jodi Woessner. I owe a big part in my professional career to my husband and son, whose continued support through thick and thin have propelled me to places I could only dream of visiting and walking along with many other professional bowlers.
