Episode 24

Today is Episode 24 and it’s episode unlike anything up until this point. Today, we are sharing a highlight reel of some of our favorite definitions of strength from guests up to this point.

Featured Guests (in order)
1. Mark Bell
2. Claire Zai
3. Chase Chewning
4. Holly Myers
5. Alex Piccirilli
6. Adrian Conway
7. Max Artsis
8. Cody McBroom
9. Karin Steere
10. Laura Poburan


We’ve absolutely loved hearing each and every guest define what strength means to them and how it shows up in their lives. The 10 definitions in this episode highlight both the diversity of answers as well as the common threads - that strength is more than just physical, that it is about overcoming resistance of any kind, having the confidence to face hard choices head on, and more. 

The answers in this episode come from coaches, clinicians, yogi instructors, wellness professionals, business owners, data scientists, and more. And it is our hope that through this diversity of guests and perspectives, that you realize strength is an essential element in all of our lives, regardless of age, profession, interest, or status.

Action Plan

Your action plan is to either write out, or record yourself defining what Strength means to you. If you’re up for it, we would LOVE to hear what you come up with. You can e-mail your definition to me at [email protected] or if you’re feeling brave and want to post your definition to Instagram, tag us @essential.strength.podcast, and tag me @dr.davidskolnik.dpt and @mikemccastle so we can share what you come up with!

What's Next?

Don't miss it!
