Natural Footwear is Essential but Not Enough w/ Team TFC


Listen Later

What if barefoot shoes were just the beginning — not the full solution?

In this team roundtable episode, recorded live in Denver, the TFC crew — Nick, Jim, Mac, Tom and Andy — unpack what’s really needed to restore foot function. They go beyond shoes to talk about education, foot loading, and how consistent, low-effort training is the real game-changer.

Jim, Tom, Andy, and Nick are the core educators and clinicians behind The Foot Collective. Together, they bring decades of experience in physiotherapy, podiatry, strength and movement coaching — and a shared passion for helping people reconnect with their bodies from the ground up.

In This Episode:

  • Why natural footwear is essential — but not enough
  • Flat ground and modern environments as hidden casts
  • Foot training as “movement nutrition”
  • Why towel scrunches aren’t the answer
  • Practical tools for building resilient feet
  • Why foot health education should come with every shoe
  • The future of foot care: proactive, not reactive
