One of my favorite quotes is “When you chase all the rabbits, you go home hungry.” Putting a little spin on it for this episode to discuss the fact that maybe you’re really good at chasing rabbits, but if it causes you to miss out on a buffalo, well, if this was Oregon Trail you […]
Listen to the PodcastI think folks are too quick to suggest outsourcing. There is ABSOLUTELY a time and a place, but if you just started your business yesterday, or even a few years ago, that time and place might not be here and now. Using this episode to give you three actionable steps to help you figure out […]
Listen to the PodcastLast weekend I sent out an e-mail to my e-mail list discussing this exact topic, and it was so well received that I decided to make a Thursday shorty about it. Folks often like to say that life is about balance; I disagree. Real life is about making constant adjustments, of varying degrees, in order […]
Listen to the Podcast“If you want better answers, ask better questions.” It’s come to be a mantra of mine, and that’s what we’re talking about this episode. A few nights ago I spent three hours logging the responses to a question that I asked on Instagram, and I ended that session very much feeling that if people asked […]

Listen to the PodcastI was recently asked about my journey from traditional PT to present day, and realized that I haven’t shared it in a while (or maybe ever, I’m honestly not sure), so I figured I’d do an episode about it. The Great Pause has given many the opportunity to take a moment and reflect on whether […]
Listen to the PodcastYoga is dead…or is it? The yoga and wellness spaces are rife with random organizations, arbitrary certifications, and corporations with less than honorable interests. This ancient tradition that was once a mental, spiritual, and physical practice has become commodified and commercialized. The cultural image of a “yogi” has become synonymous with the image of a […]
Listen to the PodcastSafety. It’s something I talk about a ton as it relates to the nervous system, and thanks to the brain bombs recently dropped by Nic Strack and James-Olivia Chu Hillman, it’s something I’ve been diving into a bit more as it relates to, well, basically everything that’s happening right now. What allows us to grow? […]
