The Aaron LeBauer Show

Aaron's guest Matt Zanis overcame $30,000 in student debt. How did he do it? He got out there and sought new information. He then created a provider course that combined philosophies of physical therapy. A good physical therapist builds trust with their client, and meets clients where they are at. See your clients as a whole person, not just an x-ray. Matt and Aaron also talk about their time with college athletes, quarantine hair, and beer. 

“The human body is remarkable in its ability to adapt.” - Matt Zanis
