Happiness Solved with Sandee Sgarlata. In this episode, Sandee interviews Whitney Otto. In this conversation, Sandee Sgarlata interviews Whitney Otto, a US world rowing champion and therapist, about the complexities of body image, especially in the context of sports. Whitney shares her journey from being an athlete to a therapist, emphasizing the importance of understanding and addressing body image issues. They discuss how sports can shape personal development, the impact of societal standards on body image, and the necessity of compassion and support systems in overcoming negative perceptions. Whitney offers practical strategies for shifting perspectives on body image and highlights the importance of seeking professional help for those struggling with these issues.Guest Bio: Whitney Otto is a US world rowing champion and 2000 Olympic alternate who pivoted her skill and passion into helping individuals and teams achieve their goals through leadership development and clinical intervention. She holds a BA from Brown University, an MA in counseling psychology from Lesley University, and a Professional Coaching Certification from The Coaches Training Institute. Her clinical perspectives are informed by over a decade of experience treating eating disorders. Her inspiring and collaborative style was further honed through years of experience serving as a Master coach for physicians, elite athletes, entrepreneurs and C-Suite executives. Whitney serves as a Master Performance Coach and consultant at Valor Performance, and coach for R3 Continuum serving  Senior level clients at Deloitte.  Whitney also serves as Group Guide for CHIEF. She is the co-host of UNTRAINED, a podcast that launched in January of 2023 focusing on giving the tools and mindsets needed to help corporate executives “untrain” from toxic mindsets and perspectives that result in professional success at personal expense.Takeaways:Whitney Otto transitioned from athlete to therapist to help others.Body image issues often stem from societal and familial pressures.Compassion is crucial for high performers dealing with body image.Negative body image can drain energy and affect performance.Understanding body image is about perception, not just physicality.Curiosity about feelings can lead to healthier body image.Support systems are essential for athletes facing body image challenges.Childhood experiences significantly influence adult body image.It's important to shift from self-criticism to self-compassion.Professional help can provide necessary support for body image issues.Connect with Whitney:Website: http://bodyimageinsideout.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bodyimageinsideout/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/whitneylpost/Connect with Sandee: Website: www.sandeesgarlata.comPodcast: www.happinesssolved.comFacebook: www.facebook.com/coachsandeesgarlataTwitter: www.twitter.com/sandeesgarlataInstagram: www.instagram.com/coachsandeesgarlata

Part 2: On January 26th, 2011, Ellen Greenberg was found dead in her apartment with twenty stab wounds to her head, neck, and back, as well as eleven bruises in various stages of healing on her right arm, leg, and abdomen. The medical examiner initially ruled it a homicide, but after a secret meeting with police, he changed the cause of death to suicide. Ellen's fiancé, Samuel Goldberg, alleged that he had gone down to the gym in their apartment building for 30-45 minutes and was unable to get back into their apartment. He called, texted, and yelled into the apartment before asking the building manager for help getting into the apartment, only to find out the door was latched from the inside. After an hour of this, Sam busted through the door and found Ellen's body on the floor. He called 911, and then he moved on with his life. He's now married with two children and is a sports TV producer. Ellen's parents, Joshua and Sandee Greenberg, fought for justice for 14 years. Just this month of February, they settled two civil cases with the city of Philadelphia and remain devastated and angry over the mishandling of their only child's death. The city of Philadelphia has also agreed the current medical examiner will reopen Ellen's case and, look at the physical and medical evidence of her cause of death and draw their own conclusion. This type of challenge to the medical examiner is unprecedented in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania- and could change state law in the future. Attorney Guy D'Andrea, who personally investigated the case for the Philadelphia DA in 2015, will discuss the huge inconsistencies in the evidence he found at the crime scene and in the autopsy. Our very own Nancy Grace, who has been following the Greenberg's case for months and is releasing a book about Ellen's death, will also join to dissect the case and discuss the relationship she's built with Joshua and Sandee along the way.

On January 26th, 2011, Ellen Greenberg was found dead in her apartment with twenty stab wounds to her head, neck, and back, as well as eleven bruises in various stages of healing on her right arm, leg, and abdomen. The medical examiner initially ruled it a homicide, but after a secret meeting with police, he changed the cause of death to suicide. Ellen's fiancé, Samuel Goldberg, alleged that he had gone down to the gym in their apartment building for 30-45 minutes and was unable to get back into their apartment. He called, texted, and yelled into the apartment before asking the building manager for help getting into the apartment, only to find out the door was latched from the inside.

It's Hump Day! Sam speaks with Chris Geidner of the Law Dork newsletter on SubStack, to provide some updates on a number of court challenges to the Trump Administration's directives & executive orders. First, Sam runs through updates on the GOP's budget resolution, US-Ukraine relations, Elon's role in the Trump Administration, DOGE, an impending government shutdown, the GOP's town hall-phobia, Trump's “Gold Card” immigration plan, the EPA, longshoremen's contract win, Oregon nurses' contract win, and Bernie's move on arms sales to Israel, before watching AOC eviscerate the GOP's plan to cut taxes for the wealthy and benefits for the poor. Chris Geidner then outlines the various types of executive orders that have been coming from the Trump Administration, including legitimate executive actions, general memoranda, and insane musings, with an unfortunate majority landing in that latter category and often positing illegal, inhumane, and outrageous policy changes without more specific action entailed, ultimately making for a much more difficult challenge in court before the actual dangers are demonstrated. Expanding on the actual efforts to block these maneuvers, Geidner walks Sam through the expansive field of plaintiffs challenging everything from Trump's funding freeze and firings to constitutionality and DOGE, examining the various organizations backing these efforts, and unpacking the legal strategy – particularly around the fourth circuit – that has brought them success so far. After touching on the constructive, methodical nature of the still-developing legal cases against the Trump Administration, Chris and Sam wrap up with the insanity of Trump's impoundment maneuver and overwhelming attack on equal opportunity employment. And in the Fun Half: Sam unpacks Jeff Bezos' announcement that the Washington Post will no longer publish opposing viewpoints to his own, watches Stephen A. Smith and Hakeem Jeffries take this moment to punch left, and admires White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt's ability to crumble under pressure when Elon Musk's role in the government comes into question. The MR Team tackles Trump's insane AI-generated “Trump Gaza” video and absurd plan to put US citizenship up for purchase, before touching on his understandable fear of the Epstein Files. Mimi from Colorado discusses relationships with conservative family, Laura from Minneapolis highlights the importance of uplifting joy, and Max from New York examines Trump's recent discussion of US v.

Ellen Greenberg Case Takes Major Turn as Family Wins Settlement, Ex-Pathologist Admits Suicide Ruling Was Wrong A long-awaited breakthrough in the 14-year battle for justice in Ellen Greenberg's death arrived in a Philadelphia courtroom Monday, as her parents, Joshua and Sandee Greenberg, reached a settlement with the city that will result in an expedited review of their daughter's controversial suicide ruling. The Greenbergs, who have fought tirelessly to prove their daughter was murdered, agreed to drop lawsuits against former Philadelphia Chief Medical Examiner Sam Gulino and Homicide Det. John McNamee. Their lawsuit alleged that the officials conspired to cover up evidence that Ellen was the victim of homicide. The settlement also halts a separate case that was scheduled for arguments before the Pennsylvania Supreme Court in early 2025. “This is a step forward to bring in the people to justice who are responsible for this homicide,” said Joe Podraza, the family's attorney. “We'd like to find out who the murderer or murderers of Ellen are.” The City of Philadelphia will pay an undisclosed sum to the Greenbergs in July, but monetary compensation was never the goal for Joshua Greenberg. “There is nobody in the world who can say Ellen committed suicide, and that's the most important thing,” he said. “I don't care about the money. I wanted Ellen's suicide taken care of.” His confidence comes from a key development: a sworn admission from former Philadelphia pathologist Dr. Marlon Osbourne, the man who initially performed Ellen's autopsy. Osbourne originally ruled Ellen's death a homicide before changing it to suicide after discussions with Philadelphia homicide detectives and medical examiners. Now, he admits he was wrong. A Stunning Reversal in Ellen's Case In a legal document signed Saturday, Osbourne outlined the evidence that led him to reconsider his stance. His reversal confirms what the Greenbergs' independent investigation has long suggested—that Ellen Greenberg was murdered. The Greenbergs' private investigator, retired Pennsylvania State Police Detective Tom Brennan, uncovered major inconsistencies in the case, including: New witness statements disputing whether Ellen's fiancé, Sam Goldberg, actually forced entry into their apartment. Evidence suggesting Ellen's body was moved after she died, contradicting the crime scene's initial assessment. A neuropathological evaluation confirming no hemorrhaging in a critical knife wound to Ellen's spinal cord, indicating she was already dead when the wound was inflicted. Despite these findings, the Philadelphia Medical Examiner's Office has not yet committed to changing Ellen's cause of death. Instead, they've agreed to conduct a new review—one the Greenbergs hope will officially overturn the suicide ruling A Flawed Investigation From the Start From the moment Ellen was found stabbed to death in her apartment on January 26, 2011, her case has been plagued with investigative failures. Ellen's fiancé, Sam Goldberg, claimed he returned from the gym to find their apartment door locked from the inside. After allegedly forcing entry, he said he discovered Ellen slumped against the kitchen cabinets, with a knife still lodged in her chest. During his 911 call, Goldberg repeatedly insisted that Ellen had “stabbed herself.” Philadelphia police and the medical examiner's office quickly accepted that explanation, ruling her death a suicide despite the glaring improbability of someone stabbing themselves 20 times—including wounds to the back of the head and neck. Perhaps the most egregious failure came when detectives left the crime scene unsecured. The next day, the apartment was professionally cleaned before a proper forensic investigation could take place. This error effectively destroyed potential evidence that could have pointed to a killer. “These are mistakes that should never happen in a homicide investigation,” Brennan said. “There is no statute of limitations on murder. We will keep fighting.” With the lawsuit settled, the Greenbergs' attorneys are now pushing for outside law enforcement agencies—such as the FBI or the Pennsylvania Attorney General's Office—to take over the case. Podraza made it clear that Philadelphia police would not be part of any future investigation. “Frankly, from our vantage point, they were not very cooperative,” he said. “The question will be how receptive other law enforcement agencies will be to pursuing this.” While a wrongful death lawsuit remains a possibility, Podraza said the family will wait to see if a criminal investigation moves forward before making any decisions. For Ellen's mother, Sandee, the settlement marks the end of years of sleepless nights and heartbreak, but not the end of their pursuit for justice. “I hope today we made Ellen proud of us because we certainly were very proud of her,” she said. As for Brennan, who has spent years uncovering the truth behind Ellen's death, he remains hopeful that her killer will one day be brought to justice. “You know, we have all the time in the world,” he said. “There is no statute of limitations on homicide. Won't it be nice to put your hand on somebody's shoulder and say, ‘Hey, come with me'?” #JusticeForEllen #EllenGreenberg #ColdCase #TrueCrime #Philadelphia #UnsolvedMystery #CrimeNews Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

The Unrelenting Questions: The Death of Ellen Greenberg The snowstorm outside was relentless, blanketing Philadelphia in a quiet, suffocating stillness. It was January 26, 2011—the kind of day where the world seems to pause, leaving everyone confined to their warm apartments, sipping coffee, watching the flakes tumble. But for Ellen Greenberg, the quiet of her kitchen hid something darker, something that would ignite over a decade of questions, heartbreak, and accusations. Twenty Wounds and a Locked Door Twenty stab wounds. A ten-inch knife still buried in her chest. And a locked door that her fiancé Samuel Goldberg claimed he had to break down. When Goldberg's call came through to 911 that day, his voice was frantic. He'd been at the gym, he told police. He'd forgotten his keys, locked himself out, and after she didn't answer his increasingly desperate knocks, he forced his way in. What he found, he insisted, shattered him: Ellen lying on the kitchen floor, her body surrounded by blood. He claimed he tried CPR, helpless as his fiancée slipped further beyond reach. From the beginning, the scene defied logic. Ellen Greenberg, 27, a beloved teacher, had 20 stab wounds—ten to the back of her head and neck, ten more to her chest, abdomen, and stomach. Yet, almost inexplicably, the Philadelphia Medical Examiner's Office initially called her death a homicide. Then, after a meeting with police and prosecutors, that ruling was quietly changed to suicide. A Family's Relentless Fight For years, Ellen's death has been a study in contradictions. The Greenberg family's quiet suburban lives were upended as they fought against a system that seemed more determined to close the case than solve it. Ellen's parents, Joshua and Sandee, poured their grief into action. They hired forensic experts, pathologists, and lawyers. They combed through every detail. And still, all these years later, their daughter's death certificate reads: Suicide. But now, 13 years later, there's a new twist. Sam Goldberg, the fiancé who found her, has broken his silence, offering his first public comments on a case that has followed him like a shadow. In a statement to CNN, Goldberg remained resolute: “When Ellen took her own life, it left me bewildered. She was a wonderful and kind person who had everything to live for.” Everything to live for. It's the phrase that lingers, heavy and uncomfortable, because it doesn't align with what those 20 stab wounds reveal. Those wounds, each cruel and deliberate, were not simply injuries—they were evidence. Evidence that something far worse had taken place in that kitchen. The Forensics That Refuse to Be Ignored Goldberg's statement paints a picture of himself as another victim—the man who lost his future wife to an unseen darkness and then endured relentless suspicion. “In the years that have passed,” he wrote, “I have had to endure the pathetic and despicable attempts to desecrate my reputation by creating a narrative that embraces lies, distortions, and falsehoods.” But the Greenbergs aren't buying it—not then, not now. And neither are the growing number of forensic experts and legal analysts who have scrutinized the case. How does someone stab themselves twenty times? How does a woman—right-handed, according to her family—plunge a knife into her neck, her back, her heart? The geometry alone boggles the mind. Dr. Wayne Ross, a forensic pathologist hired by the Greenbergs, examined the evidence with a police officer of similar size and build as Ellen. They tried to replicate the movements. “We gave her the knife to see if she could actually contort herself in these positions,” Ross explained during a detailed forensic analysis conducted for the Greenbergs' legal team. “And she couldn't.” And then there's Ellen's spinal cord. Lyndsey Emery, another forensic pathologist, later revealed what may be the most chilling fact of all: Ellen's spinal cord had been severed. Two deep, forceful stabs to the neck. Her brain had been pierced. That alone, experts agree, would have left her paralyzed or dead. “No hemorrhaging,” Emery testified in a deposition, referring specifically to the wounds on Ellen's spinal cord. “No pulse.” This key statement, confirmed during legal proceedings, underscores the medical evidence that Ellen's fatal injuries left her unable to continue any self-inflicted harm. The implication was clear: Ellen could not have inflicted the other wounds on herself after those injuries. She would have been physically incapable of it. The Doorman Who Wasn't There The Pennsylvania Supreme Court's decision to hear the Greenbergs' case marks a rare victory. For the first time, a court acknowledged that Ellen's death may have been more than a tragic misunderstanding—that maybe, just maybe, there had been a rush to judgment. But there's more. Depositions uncovered another key piece of the puzzle—one involving Goldberg's story about breaking down the apartment door. According to police at the time, a doorman claimed he had witnessed Goldberg forcing his way in. That detail became critical, helping authorities conclude Ellen's death was a suicide. Except, years later, the doorman said otherwise. In a signed statement, he revealed he was never there. Security cameras from the building confirmed it: the doorman had been at his post the entire time. The Parents Who Won't Give Up Ellen's parents remain adamant that their daughter was not suicidal. Yes, she had been diagnosed with anxiety, but the psychiatrist who treated her, Dr. Ellen Berman, stated unequivocally that Ellen showed no signs of suicidal intent. Friends noticed a change in her demeanor before her death, describing her as nervous and deferential—a far cry from the confident woman they had once known. Ellen's parents later discovered she had removed her engagement ring that day. She had packed her valuables, including her makeup, as if she were planning to leave. Joshua Greenberg insists in an interview, “She was going to come home. She had a plan.” This statement, made publicly and sourced from verified reports, reflects the family's enduring belief that Ellen's actions that day were not those of someone intending to take her own life. A Story Without an Ending The answers remain elusive, but the Greenbergs aren't giving up. They've uncovered a timeline riddled with inconsistencies, a crime scene marred by contamination, and a ruling built on shaky foundations. And now, with the Pennsylvania Supreme Court's intervention, they may finally have their chance to tear down the wall of silence that has surrounded this case. As for Sam Goldberg, his life has moved on. He's married now, living in New York, raising two children. To his supporters, he is a grieving fiancé who has been unfairly maligned. To the Greenbergs, he remains an enigma, a man at the center of a story that refuses to rest. Joshua Greenberg expressed his frustration plainly in an interview: “There's been a mistake—a big f**king mistake.” His voice, heavy with the weight of 13 years of unanswered questions and legal battles, carried a mixture of grief, anger, and determination. The snow has long since melted, but the questions remain—lingering, unanswered, like the quiet storm that began it all. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In a statement to CNN, Goldberg remained resolute: “When Ellen took her own life, it left me bewildered. She was a wonderful and kind person who had everything to live for.” Everything to live for. It's the phrase that lingers, heavy and uncomfortable, because it doesn't align with what those 20 stab wounds reveal. Those wounds, each cruel and deliberate, were not simply injuries—they were evidence. Evidence that something far worse had taken place in that kitchen. The Forensics That Refuse to Be Ignored Goldberg's statement paints a picture of himself as another victim—the man who lost his future wife to an unseen darkness and then endured relentless suspicion. “In the years that have passed,” he wrote, “I have had to endure the pathetic and despicable attempts to desecrate my reputation by creating a narrative that embraces lies, distortions, and falsehoods.” But the Greenbergs aren't buying it—not then, not now. And neither are the growing number of forensic experts and legal analysts who have scrutinized the case. How does someone stab themselves twenty times? How does a woman—right-handed, according to her family—plunge a knife into her neck, her back, her heart? The geometry alone boggles the mind. Dr. Wayne Ross, a forensic pathologist hired by the Greenbergs, examined the evidence with a police officer of similar size and build as Ellen. They tried to replicate the movements. “We gave her the knife to see if she could actually contort herself in these positions,” Ross explained during a detailed forensic analysis conducted for the Greenbergs' legal team. “And she couldn't.” And then there's Ellen's spinal cord. Lyndsey Emery, another forensic pathologist, later revealed what may be the most chilling fact of all: Ellen's spinal cord had been severed. Two deep, forceful stabs to the neck. Her brain had been pierced. That alone, experts agree, would have left her paralyzed or dead. “No hemorrhaging,” Emery testified in a deposition, referring specifically to the wounds on Ellen's spinal cord. “No pulse.” This key statement, confirmed during legal proceedings, underscores the medical evidence that Ellen's fatal injuries left her unable to continue any self-inflicted harm. The implication was clear: Ellen could not have inflicted the other wounds on herself after those injuries. She would have been physically incapable of it. The Doorman Who Wasn't There The Pennsylvania Supreme Court's decision to hear the Greenbergs' case marks a rare victory. For the first time, a court acknowledged that Ellen's death may have been more than a tragic misunderstanding—that maybe, just maybe, there had been a rush to judgment. But there's more. Depositions uncovered another key piece of the puzzle—one involving Goldberg's story about breaking down the apartment door. According to police at the time, a doorman claimed he had witnessed Goldberg forcing his way in. That detail became critical, helping authorities conclude Ellen's death was a suicide. Except, years later, the doorman said otherwise. In a signed statement, he revealed he was never there. Security cameras from the building confirmed it: the doorman had been at his post the entire time. The Parents Who Won't Give Up Ellen's parents remain adamant that their daughter was not suicidal. Yes, she had been diagnosed with anxiety, but the psychiatrist who treated her, Dr. Ellen Berman, stated unequivocally that Ellen showed no signs of suicidal intent. Friends noticed a change in her demeanor before her death, describing her as nervous and deferential—a far cry from the confident woman they had once known. Ellen's parents later discovered she had removed her engagement ring that day. She had packed her valuables, including her makeup, as if she were planning to leave. Joshua Greenberg insists in an interview, “She was going to come home. She had a plan.” This statement, made publicly and sourced from verified reports, reflects the family's enduring belief that Ellen's actions that day were not those of someone intending to take her own life. A Story Without an Ending The answers remain elusive, but the Greenbergs aren't giving up. They've uncovered a timeline riddled with inconsistencies, a crime scene marred by contamination, and a ruling built on shaky foundations. And now, with the Pennsylvania Supreme Court's intervention, they may finally have their chance to tear down the wall of silence that has surrounded this case. As for Sam Goldberg, his life has moved on. He's married now, living in New York, raising two children. To his supporters, he is a grieving fiancé who has been unfairly maligned. To the Greenbergs, he remains an enigma, a man at the center of a story that refuses to rest. Joshua Greenberg expressed his frustration plainly in an interview: “There's been a mistake—a big f**king mistake.” His voice, heavy with the weight of 13 years of unanswered questions and legal battles, carried a mixture of grief, anger, and determination. The snow has long since melted, but the questions remain—lingering, unanswered, like the quiet storm that began it all. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
