About Dr. Jana
Dr. Jana Price-Sharps has spent over three decades working with some of the most resilient people under the greatest pressure on the planet: firefighters, combat veterans, and law enforcement officers. That experience has given her a rare, grounded perspective on what it actually takes for a person to change, grow, and thrive.
As a licensed psychologist, she has led training, therapy, and crisis support programs across California, served as a professor of forensic psychology, and is the primary author of Beyond Survival: Pilot Your Own Brain a resiliency guide built on real neuroscience, not platitudes.
She is the CEO and Founder of the California Forensic Institute (CFI) and President of SERI, a non-profit dedicated to mental health support in high-stress professions. She also hosts the Mind Pilot podcast, where she shows how the science of the mind and the brain can be made accessible and valuable to you. In your personal, family, and professional life.
Now, Dr. Jana is bringing that same depth of knowledge and directness to a broader audience. Whether you're navigating a major life transition, feeling stuck, or simply ready for something more the tools she's used with people in the hardest circumstances of their lives work just as powerfully in everyday ones.
