Before you ask what kind of shoes I like or our guest does, listen to this for a deeper understanding of healthy feet. 

Posture a problem? How are your feet? Functional feet are the topic of the day. Barefoot specialist expert Dr Emily Splichal is more than a podiatrist. She’s a functional podiatrist. And… she’s a fitness trainer and a movement specialist. She may or may not be (though you’d never believe it from a picture) a midlifer who’s got enough experience working with patients and students to know midlife feet can be the beginnings of problems up the kinetic chain and she’s here to talk about it.
