This week, Eli Hallak sits down with Katie Perez and goes in-depth on Katie’s diverse professional background, exploring how her experiences have shaped her approach to care and professional development. Together, they discuss the importance of the four core muscles, patient self-efficacy, and self-advocacy, while highlighting the many positives that come with working in an industrial environment. Whether it’s advancing patient care or reshaping the perception of the profession, Katie makes it clear: ATs are more than just professionals supervising stretches, warm-ups, or foam rolling sessions—they are educators, advocates, and experts in human performance.
