In this episode, Ethan and Joey interview Angelo State's very own neuro professor, Dr. Laura Wilson who is a board certified Neurologic Clinical Specialist. She talks about the things that keep her going, including faith, family, and her being a foster parent. Dr. Wilson's journey started as an interior design major at Baylor University. After an injury during track, she was drawn to her passion of physical therapy and soon pursued it. She advises listeners to find their passion and make it matter, and to take school seriously while not taking yourself seriously, enjoying the process that PT school is. She also discusses the transition from undergrad to PT school, where there is more applying what is learned rather than memorizing.

Dr. Wilson also dives into physical therapy research on using high intensity interval training training with patients who have a neurologic diagnosis. She also discusses the importance of sleep and nutrition in neurodegenerative diseases.
