In this deeply moving episode of Warriors Unmasked, Chuck Thuss welcomes two extraordinary guests, Terry McGuire and Dr. Anita Sands, for a powerful discussion about mental health, resilience, and the importance of giving a voice to depression. Terry, an award-winning journalist and co-host of the Giving Voice to Depression podcast, shares her lived experience with depression and how it led her to create a platform that has reached millions. Dr. Anita Sands, a licensed psychologist with over 25 years of experience, opens up about her own challenges with chronic illness and neurodivergence, explaining how these experiences shape her work and advocacy. Together, they offer insight into the often misunderstood nature of mental health struggles, the power of vulnerability, and the tools that can help individuals navigate depression, anxiety, and other emotional challenges. Key Takeaways from the Conversation: Mental Health is Not Always Obvious: Terry shares how even after experiencing depression before, she didn't recognize it when it hit her hardest. She emphasizes that depression is deceptive—it convinces people they have no worth, even when they've overcome it before. The Importance of Self-Awareness & Early Warning Signs: Both Terry and Dr. Sands highlight how recognizing the early signs of mental health struggles can help prevent deeper crises. Knowing when to reach out for help is crucial. The Lies Depression Tells: A recurring theme in their work is the idea that depression lies. It convinces people they are alone, that they are a burden, and that nothing will get better—none of which are true. The Power of Vulnerability: Chuck, Terry, and Dr. Sands discuss how opening up about struggles creates a space for healing, both for the person sharing and for those listening who may be suffering in silence. Building a Toolbox for Mental Wellness: The guests share personal tools that help them manage their mental health, including self-compassion, mindfulness, journaling, seeking connection, and prioritizing rest. The Mission of Giving Voice to Depression Terry and Dr. Sands co-host Giving Voice to Depression, a podcast that ranks in the top 1% globally and has helped countless individuals feel seen and heard. Their mission is to tell real stories of people experiencing depression and mental illness, breaking down stigma and offering hope. They remind listeners that no one is alone in their struggles and that help is available. Listeners can tune in to Giving Voice to Depression wherever they get their podcasts or visit givingvoicetodepression.com to learn more. You Are Not Alone As Chuck closes out this impactful episode, he reminds listeners that if they are struggling, there is hope. Depression may try to convince you otherwise, but you are not alone, and help is available. Whether it's reaching out to a friend, a professional, or calling a crisis helpline, taking the first step is a sign of strength.

More about Terry: https://www.tacosfallapart.com/podcast-live-show/podcast-guests/terry-mcguire Short bio: Terry McGuire is a former broadcast journalist/news anchor-turned mental health advocate. After her worst-ever depression she asked herself what would have helped her climb out of the pit earlier. Her answer was hearing from other people who also had depression - without having to join a group or actually interact with other people (because that can be hard in depression.) She then figured out a way to provide that to others still in depression's grips. She founded a non-profit corporation, started Giving Voice to Depression, a weekly podcast, created a supportive online community, and created daily online posts offering information and hope. With the help of a small, passionate team, Terry has been doing that since 2017. Her podcast has had more than one million plays! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mommafoxfire/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mommafoxfire/support

Delivering Marketing Joy Episode 169 Terry McGuire by Kirby Hasseman
Defender Radio: The Podcast for Wildlife Advocates and Animal Lovers
Wildlife corridors are becoming beautiful and iconic scientific feats that show our ability to co-exist with animals, when we put our minds to it. And the TransCanada Highway through Banff National Park is perhaps the best example of that. Twinning of the highway – or doubling its width – began in 1981, and with it, a bold plan to make it safer for animals to get across the busy highway. Currently more than 40 corridors of multiple design serve the animals, and the latest research is highlighting the incredible success of the program managed by Parks Canada. Wildlife collisions have reduced by more than 80%, and almost 90% for various ungulates such as deer, moose, and bighorn sheep. The development of the structures, which have become postcard-esque examples of scientific co-existence, the engineering tasks associated with choosing locations, plant life, and style of crossing, and what it’s like to look back at nearly 30 years of success were discussed with Terry McGuire, Parks Canada veteran, and project coordinator for the new TransCanada Highway Twinning in Yoho National Park.
My guest this week is Kevin Bitterman, a Partner in Polaris Partners Boston office. Kevin joined Polaris in 2004 to focus on investments in healthcare, after playing a key role in getting Sirtris Pharmaceuticals off the ground while a graduate student at Harvard Medical School. What was that role? Well, it depends who you ask. When Kevin was asked by the Boston Business Journal he said, "I deserve next to no credit for the tremendous accomplishments they've had there." His team had a different view... "All you have to do is read Kevin’s Ph.D. dissertation," said lead investor Terry McGuire, "He was a co-discoverer of (Sirtris' science), and a big reason for their success." Sirtis was acquired by drug giant GlaxoSmithKline PLC in 2008, for $720 million. Trust me when I tell you a VC who downplays their role in a startup’s success is the rarest of creatures indeed, and Kevin’s atypical humility is one of the things that’s made him a go-to guy on the Boston biotech scene. In his time at Polaris, Kevin also co-founded Genocea Biosciences (NASDAQ: GNCA) and was the founding CEO of Editas Medicine (NASDAQ: EDIT), Morphic Therapeutic and Visterra. He currently represents Polaris as a director of Editas Medicine, InSeal Medical, Genocea Biosciences, Kala Pharmaceuticals, Morphic Therapeutic, Neuronetics, Taris Biomedical and Vets First Choice. Kevin is also active in the local life science and healthcare start-up community, serving on the Scientific Advisory Board of the Massachusetts Life Sciences Center (MLSC) and with me as Board Chair of the New England Venture Capital Association (NEVCA). He has a BA, summa cum laude, from Rutgers University and a PhD in genetics at Harvard Medical School. In this week’s second segment Kevin and I talked about how cutting edge biotech companies like the one’s he’s been involved in get off the ground, how they emerge from our great universities to create companies that have collectively saved millions of lives. His answer is nothing like the way most people think of VC, and even different from the technology venture model some of us know so well. Kevin and I live in the same town in the Western suburbs and have even spent a few Dad’s weekends down in Mohegan Sun (which will NOT be discussed in this podcast.) I know him to be a family man of great kindness, talent, and intelligence, and it was a pleasure spending a little time to get under what makes him tick.
