The Mobility Mindset

In this episode, we sit down with Nitin Ambardar and Angus MacKay, clinic owners with Kids Physio Group, to talk about their journeys in pediatric physiotherapy and the impact of introducing Trexo into their clinics.

They share what inspired them to specialize in pediatric physiotherapy, why they chose to bring Trexo into their practice, and powerful stories of children taking their first steps with this technology. You’ll also hear their thoughts on creating fun, family-centered clinics, supporting kids with complex neurological needs, and leading teams that keep care both innovative and approachable.

This is a must-listen for parents, therapists, and anyone interested in the future of pediatric physiotherapy, child mobility, and assistive technology.

In this episode, we’re joined by Tracy Collier, Executive Director of Ontario Track3 Adaptive Sports Association. Tracy’s journey with Track3 started as a supporter, but it quickly became deeply personal when a young family member with cerebral palsy joined the program - and learned to ski before he could walk.

Tracy brings over 20 years of leadership experience and a passion for creating inclusive spaces where children with disabilities can thrive.

We talk about:

• The transformative power of adaptive skiing and snowboarding

• What inclusive sport really means for families

• How Track3 builds confidence, connection, and independence through movement

• The personal side of leadership - balancing career, motherhood, and mission

• Why early access to adaptive sport matters more than ever

Whether you're a parent, therapist, educator, or someone who believes in making the outdoors accessible to everyone - this conversation will leave you inspired.

As the Director of Special Projects at the First Maryland Disability Trust, Eric shares how he bridges the gap between legal tools and the real-life needs of families.

In 2021, Navi’s life changed dramatically after a diagnosis of Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS), a rare neurological disorder that led to paralysis. Over the years, Navi has shown remarkable progress in recovery, transitioning from a wheelchair to using a walker and crutches with AFO braces, despite ongoing challenges with partial paralysis in the legs and feet and limited fine motor skills in the hands.

Before GBS, Navi thrived on an active lifestyle, frequenting the gym daily—sometimes twice a week—and finding solace in running as both therapy and exercise. Losing that freedom was a profound challenge, yet Navi remains determined to embrace life fully, facing each day with unwavering resilience.

This episode features Jaime Labelle, mom of 2 boys - one of them a CP warrior and Trexo user. She talks about juggling all the balls and what happens when you feel like you've dropped a ball. Her, Marc & Sara (hosts) chat about real life and that you can't control it all. Perfect example - a plumber showed up at Jaime's house while recording the episode. We easily edited that out of the podcast - but you can't always edit things out of real life!💞

Jaime's reason for coming on the podcast, in her words: "This road can be lonely and I want to help change that."
