I’m Jamie Kodra, the voice behind Hope in the Chaos—a podcast born from my journey through bipolar disorder and the path to healing. For years, I lived undiagnosed and misunderstood. My diagnosis of bipolar II changed everything. Now, I share my story to help others feel seen, supported, and less alone.

I’m a mental health advocate, author, and marketing strategist with a background in nursing and holistic wellness. Yoga, breathwork, and somatic healing became anchors in my life and tools I now share with others.

I’m a proud military wife and mom of two amazing daughters. I believe in the power of story, the strength of community, and the unconditional love of dogs—the kind that heals in ways words can’t.

Through this podcast, I hope to offer space for honesty, growth, and light in the darkest moments. There is hope, even in the chaos.
