The MOTCAST

Okay, you super cool Motcaster. You've been on this journey with us for a bit, and I bet you're starting to wonder how exactly Dr. Motley got into all of this in the first place. What's his origin story, you might ask? Well ask no more. Get ready for the first installment in our "Meet Doctor Motley" series. Sit back, relax, and get ready for a trip down memory lane alongside Matt and Dr. Motley.

In the second part of our little series on empathy, we take the next step and go a little deeper in the discussion about those people who cannot only feel the feelings of others, but have the ability to get in there and help with the situation. These lovely folks are called sympathizers. So...what qualifies someone as a sympathizer? Learn more in this episode.

Is it possible to truly feel how other people are feeling? To, in a real way, be able to take part in the joy, sadness, peace, and pain of others? What is empathy and how exactly does it work? Are you an empathizer? Listen in to this episode for more info on the empathizers in our lives. Ya feel me?

On today's episode, we step back and discuss one of our culture's most common definitions of a balanced lifestyle, "work hard, play hard." But is that really the proper way to live a balanced life? Can the concept even apply to anything more than your breakfast? Dr. Motley and Matt take a hard look at what it really means to find and embrace balance in our every day lives.

Most of us have experienced some type of back or joint pain, be it chronic or seemingly random. One day you're minding your own business, you bend over to pick something up or to open your trunk, and wham! Back pain. What if your back pain wasn't so random, though? What if it was somehow connected to events or traumas from your past? Could your pain have a back story?

On this episode of the MOTCAST, we take a deep dive into everyone's favorite thing they don't get enough of; Sleep. Kind of using our friend Brett (who is just about as busy as anyone could possibly be) as a case study, Dr. Motley takes us through the different phases of a typical night's sleep and give us insight into how to make each sleep a better, more restful one.

Today on the MOTCAST, we discuss the three main body types and how each one can influence so many different things about you! Learning about your body type can help you know more about everything from what hormones you produce to how you respond to stresses in life, and even how to most effectively exercise and diet! So, what's your body type? Tune in and find out.

Welcome to the very first episode of the MOTCAST. Our goal with this podcast is to connect you with the heart and mind of our friend, Doctor Motley. Join Doctor Motley and his cohosts Brett and Matt as they dig into one of the most common facets of everyday life: Stress. Where does stress come from? Is it always bad? What changes can each of us make to decrease the amount of stress in our day? Listen in for answers to these questions and more.
