In this enlightening episode, Dr. F. Scott Feil sits down with Dr. Mike Studer, a renowned physical therapist and author of the new book The Brain That Chooses Itself. Dr. Studer shares his personal journey and the inspiration behind his latest work, discussing how a holistic approach to health can extend not only our lifespan but also our "healthspan" — the quality and independence of life. Together, they explore the powerful role of choice in shaping physical, mental, and social well-being.
Listeners will gain insights into actionable pillars for a healthier life: physical activity, sleep quality, balanced nutrition, social connections, and pushing boundaries through new experiences. Dr. Studer also emphasizes the importance of social engagement, critical thinking, and personal agency as foundational elements for resilience and longevity. Alongside practical health tips, the conversation dives into themes of purpose, mastery, and autonomy, encouraging listeners to make intentional choices for a more fulfilling and empowered life. Perfect for healthcare professionals, patients, and anyone curious about achieving lasting vitality.

If you're a PT and you have student loan debt, you gotta talk to these guys. What makes them unique is that they view financial planning as like running hurdles on a track. And for PTs, the first hurdle many of us run into is student loan debt. Varela Financial will help you get over that hurdle. They not only take the time to explain to you which plans you individually qualify for and how those plans work, but they ALSO take the time to show you what YOUR individual case looks like mapped out within each option. So if you're looking for help on your student loan debt, or any area of your personal finances, we highly recommend working with them. You can check out Varela Financial out at varelafinancial.com.
