Back with episode 7, a solo one talking about one of my favorite topics: consistency. 

Consistency is the goal we are all striving for when it comes to establishing a habit and creating lasting change....but for some reason it eludes so many of us and we end up starting and stopping things, setting unrealistic goals and feeling like we're going in circles.

I talk about the big pitfall many of us get stuck in when trying to find consistency, some really simple techniques we can use not just to create change, but to make it stick and the "big three" pillars of an approach to movement and exercise that will support you for life.

Episode 6 brings on my friend and fellow movement teacher Erica Webb (all the way from Melbourne Australia!)

Erica and I have a very similar approach to teaching movement, so it was really fun to dive into this conversation with her.

Here is some of what we get into: 

• why thinking beyond stereotypical labels could change your approach to fitness
• the biggest trap people fall into when it comes to exercise
• why your definition of exercise is limiting your ability to feel good in your body
• the most important goal of movement
• why taking the time to learn how your body and brain work can change everything
• why exercise is not one size fits all and finding what fits you is essential
• the most important part of movement that might surprise you
• why you're overcomplicating exercise
• the surprising ways in which you're ignoring what your body needs
• why doing something kind for yourself can be so hard

In our first episode with a guest, I have an amazing talk with my friend and colleague Rachel Sobczak. Rachel is a physical therapist, but we met at an advanced biomechanics focused yoga teacher training. Curious why a PT would go back and study yoga? I was too. Listen to find out.

We chat about so much fun stuff including:

-why play is essential for sustainable movement

-why looking at the body as one integrated system rather than individual parts is the key to improving pain and feeling good

-why continuity of care and movement between a PT and a coach/trainer is the secret to long term success

-why learning how to pay attention to what your body needs day to day is the foundation of exercise

-the surprising ways emotional stress shows up physically and what you can do about it

-and for the body nerds out there, learn the fascinating parallels between the jaw and the pelvis and why this matters for your movement

In solo episode number 2, I introduce one of my most favorite topics: movement vs. exercise. I'll explain why they're not the same and how understanding the difference between the two  will have a huge impact on your life and your relationship with both.

Our modern lifestyle drastically influences our health because of how little we actually move. Exercise is wonderful and necessary...but, its not enough. So I share some simple tips and mindset shifts to go beyond exercise and incorporate more movement into your life.

Warning, you might never look at a parking lot the same way again!

In the very first episode I share a little bit of how I got here...working as a movement coach after being the last kid picked in gym class and hating exercise for a good portion of my life. And I also share some of the topics we'll cover in future episodes like why walking is the most underrated form of exercise, why 5 minutes of movement CAN be enough and how to never suffer through a workout  again.
