Quotes

“As we're really getting stronger, we really want to make sure we're emphasizing mobility, injury prevention and just not feeling so creaky.” Dr. Polly Watson

“An exercise snack is just like it sounds. It's a small bit of exercise. These are things that really we can fit in through the day.” Kate Willis NP-C

“We've done all this sort of shame and blame of I'm not trying hard enough and I'm not counting my macros enough. Well, maybe the stress from all that is actually counterproductive.” Dr. Polly Watson

“The longer I do this work and the more I have life experience being a human, the more I realize that our nervous systems are really, really foundational to our health and our healing. We live in a world that really assaults our nervous system on a minute by minute basis.” Kate Willis NP-C
