Hey, y’all! 

Today, it’s just me, and we’re talking about cars. 

Not the ones you drive - although I wouldn’t mind a Porsche - but controlled articular rotations. 

If you’ve been around me for more than five minutes, you’ve heard me preach about them. 

They’ve changed my life, and they can change yours too. 

We’re breaking down what they are, why they matter, and how they can keep you moving better for longer. 

Plus, I’ve got a story about how I stumbled into this world of joint health that might just make you rethink how you treat your body. 

Let’s dive right in. 

Highlights: 

(02:15) What Are Controlled Articular Rotations (CARs)?

(07:42) My Journey with CARs 

(14:27) Why Joint Health Matters for Everyone

(19: 53) Join the Virtual CARs Workshop

Hey y’all, today’s episode is a special one. 

I’ve got my friend Jenna Scott with me, and let me tell you - she is EPIC. Literally. 

She’s trademarked her Becoming Epic framework, and she’s here to help us stop “should-ing” all over ourselves and start owning our emotions instead of letting them own us. 

We get into everything - emotional regulation, self-awareness, and how to actually work with what you're feeling instead of fighting it. 

This one’s powerful, hilarious, and full of those lightbulb moments we all need. 

Let’s dive right in.

Highlights:

(14:32) Breaking Free from “Should-ing” on Yourself

(23:50) Emotional Regulation in Real Life

(31:13) The Power of Naming Your Emotions
