The Rethinking Rehab Podcast

Yall-this episode is packed with goodness!  Bobby Jean Lee was one of my CIs back in 2017 and has since turned into a good friend and mentor.  My favorite thing about Bobby is how balanced she is in her thinking and how willing she is to question herself.  It rubbed off on me big time.  Today we chat about her experience through residency, fellowship, and her role as a PT in a Division 1 setting.  I hope this conversation inspires you to continue to pursue excellence with humility and find the courage to say your first “I don’t know.”

Jenifer Presley and I have worked together for the last few years. She is very much someone in my real life “challenge network.”  Jeni brings a lot of great experience to this conversation as she started out as an AT, became a PT and then has pursued both a sports residency and an orthopedic fellowship.  We dive into Jeni’s thoughts on all things related to the AT-PT relationship, mentorship and patient care.  Enjoy!

Welcome to the first installment of a lil’ side series I’m calling Becoming Unstuck.  The aim here is to capture live “mentor calls” over sticky cases.  Today I chat with my friend Phil Sheedy who works with a lot of high level soccer players and treats the hip and groin significantly more often than myself.  Phil provided a lot of quick hitters related to eval flow, differential diagnosis, patient education, and considering when a more specific approach to treatment is warranted.  I hope this is helpful to you!

I’m so excited to share this conversation with y’all!  Erica is one of my OG PT friends and mentors.  We met when I was a student and she was a resident.  Today we chat about some of the internal conversations she’s had with herself over the years.  I hope y’all appreciate her vulnerability and honest reflections as much as I do!

Rethinking Rehab fam!  Today I bring you a conversation that quite honestly still has me geeking out.  Josh Funk is the Founder and CEO of Rehab 2 Perform and walks the walk, yall.  Josh has an infectious energy and I am so thankful we have people like him leading others with flexibility, humility and eagerness. Enjoy!

Welcome back y’all! Today I bring you such a fun and intellectually stimulating conversation with my friend Meredith Chaput. We chat about her residency experience, the importance of reflection and flexibility in clinical education, consideration of athlete learning styles, knee valgus in ACLR rehab and her “foam pad tangent,” which goes into all things somatosensation, perturbation training, and unstable surface utilization. You might need a pen and paper for this one!

I bring you the first of many dark horses that I get to call friends and colleagues. Today my old PT school classmate, Betta Clark, joins me to talk about her journey thus far. Betta and I were treatment partners in PT school and looking back on our treatment notes we've both changed our approach significantly. We chat about how overwhelming being "the fixer" is, how scary it used to be to provoke pain during exercise, and how Betta's own postpartum experience changed her views on what it means to have "pelvic floor dysfunction."

Welcome to the first episode of the Rethinking Rehab Podcast friends! Let's introduce our first guest: If you know him, you love him!  If you don’t know him, you should.  Jarred Boyd is one of the most introspective clinicians out there. It was a no brainer asking him to be my first guest. Jarred sets the tone for this new podcast by sharing how his mind has changed on various topics, including: addressing the movement vs. the muscle in rehab, reconciling the differences in all the specialty systems, developing a principles-based approach, and questioning when being a reductionist may be advantageous.
