Most people don’t struggle with movement — they struggle with the mindset around movement.

In this episode, psychologist Diana Hill and biomechanist Katy Bowman break down the real reasons so many of us stay stuck in sedentary loops. It’s not laziness. It’s not time. It’s our mental patterns:

In this conversation, you’ll learn how to identify your personal barriers to movement, shift the way you think about progress, and create a more flexible, self-compassionate relationship with your body.

Whether you’re a parent, a busy professional, or someone trying to reclaim your health — this episode will help you stop waiting for the “perfect” workout and start making every bit of movement count.
