The Game Changer Podcast
The Game Changer Podcast explores the intersection of health, purpose, and performance — spotlighting leaders, clinicians, and creators who turn adversity into growth.
Hosted by Michelle Dutro — Air Force veteran, former firefighter, PTSD nonprofit founder, and founder of Inner North Star Retreat — each episode blends candid conversations with science-backed tools for stress mastery, mental fitness, and resilience.
This is a show for curious, growth-minded people who believe the best chapters of their lives are still ahead of them — and who want real conversations, new ideas, and the kind of guests you won't find on every other podcast.
At a time when everything seems designed to divide us, this is a place to learn something genuinely new, think a little differently, and grow — without anyone telling you what to think.
With over two decades in biofeedback and wellness, Michelle brings a trauma-aware, compassion-forward approach that helps listeners elevate their physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing.

If you have EVER considered traveling to a location that is far away, a place you know little about, and is different from every aspect of your current life… make 2017 the year you do just that. There is such tremendous value when you can gain perspective and insight on your own life, when you make the effort to become an observer of your life. The best way to do that, is to step FAR away from it, and put yourself if a place that has you asking all sorts of different questions than what you normally ask.
For this particular episode, I once again talk about meditation. This is meant for the people who feel they:
- Have no time.
- Don’t understand the value.
- Can’t stop their mind from chattering and racing, so they give up.
1: If you have no time, it is because you have no clarity. Meditation will help, better than any other single thing you could do.
2. If you don’t understand the value, it is because of point three: You have given up too soon.
3: Now point three about the mind chatter… I give you insight into the first two minutes every time I sit in silence. Maybe this will give you some perspective, that we are not so far apart. Stick with it.
If you are truly going to make 2017 different than any other year, you must start taking different actions. I don’t know of a better, or more effective way of creating a life that has true meaning than starting with a meditation practice.
