Women Road Warriors

Could your screen time be impairing your memory, learning ability, focus, and attention span? You could unintentionally be rewiring your brain the wrong way and that goes for kids as well as adults.
Research shows excessive screen time can negatively affect sleep, concentration, working memory, emotional regulation, and attention span. For both children and adults, digital overload may contribute to mental fatigue, increased stress, reduced productivity, forgetfulness, and difficulty focusing for long periods of time.
The good news is there are ways to strengthen and retrain the brain for better performance and brain optimization expert Dr. Tere Linzey explains how. What’s important is you can change the brain at any age.
In this episode of Women Road Warriors with Shelley Johnson and Kathy Tuccaro, Dr. Linzey discusses how neuroplasticity, the brain’s ability to form new neural connections and adapt throughout life can improve cognitive function at any age.
Dr. Linzey is a Harvard and UC Berkeley-trained educational psychologist, certified in neuropsychology, and founder of BrainMatterZ, an internationally used brain optimization program. She’s also the author of “Measuring Up!” a practical guide to understanding how the brain learns, adapts, and improves through intentional training and healthy habits.
With over 30 years in education, she has helped children, teens, and adults improve executive functioning, processing speed, working memory, focus, concentration, and learning performance.
Her techniques have helped students raise SAT scores, reduce test anxiety, strengthen concentration, and improve cognitive performance. She has also worked extensively with individuals dealing with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, concussions, auditory processing challenges, memory issues, and learning difficulties.
Dr. Linzey shares science-based strategies designed to strengthen the brain naturally through movement, social connection, nutrition, cognitive exercises, and brain-training techniques that support focus, emotional resilience, memory, and mental sharpness.

What does it take to survive the unthinkable and then transform because of it?
In this powerful episode of Women Road Warriors, Shelley Johnson and Kathy Tuccaro sit down with Carol Murray, a woman whose life changed in an instant after a catastrophic skydiving accident left her free-falling over half a mile when both her main and backup parachutes failed. Her story was featured in the Toronto Star. The impact caused devastating injuries and years of recovery, but that’s only the beginning of her story. She talks about her near-death experience and what she has become because of it.
Today, Carol is known as “The Resilience Architect,” a sought-after keynote speaker helping individuals and organizations navigate adversity, lead under pressure, and perform at their highest level when it matters most.
Drawing from her extraordinary journey and a career raising over $50 million for medical research, social services, and community organizations across North America, Carol shares the three pillars that define true resilience: Community, Values, and Perspective.
This conversation goes beyond survival—it’s about rebuilding, redefining fear, and stepping into strength with intention. Carol’s story will challenge the way you think about setbacks, leadership, and what it really means to rise after life knocks you down.
If you’ve ever faced adversity, questioned your strength, or needed a reminder of what’s possible, this episode is for you.

“Calm down.”
“You’re overreacting.”
“You’re too much.”
Women hear it everywhere—but what if the truth is this: you’re not too much… you’re carrying too much.
On Women Road Warriors, Shelley Johnson and Kathy Tuccaro welcome Beatriz (Béa) Victoria Albina, a UCSF-trained Family Nurse Practitioner, Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, and author of End Emotional Outsourcing™. This conversation dives deep into women’s mental health, burnout recovery, boundaries, self-worth, and nervous system regulation—giving you practical tools to reclaim your energy and identity.
After years of overachieving, overgiving, and burning out, Béa uncovered a powerful truth:
Overfunctioning isn’t strength—it’s survival mode.
She now helps women break free from people-pleasing, perfectionism, and codependency by combining neuroscience, somatic healing, and polyvagal theory to retrain the nervous system and rebuild self-trust.
Featured by Cosmopolitan, Goop, MindBodyGreen, Betches, and Oprah Daily, Béa is a leading voice helping women stop outsourcing their safety, belonging, and worth—and finally come home to themselves.

Reclaim your energy and stop overgiving
