On this episode of the Healthy Wealthy and Smart Podcast, Dr. Alli Gokeler joins me to discuss motor learning following ACL injury. Alli has a special interest in motor control. He’s currently working on the development of prevention programs designed to reduce primary and secondary ACL injury rate and optimization of return to sports and performance. In this episode, we discuss: -The 4 principles of motor learning -How to facilitate neuroplasticity with principles of motor learning -Self-controlled feedback and how it enhances learning and motivation -Dr. Gokeler’s take on the timetable for returning to sport following ACL injury -And so much more!   The way clinicians guide and cue their patients can impact their patients’ success in learning motor skills. Dr. Gokeler outlines important considerations for clinicians and suggests, “A very simple change in wording can have a significant effect on learning.”   Incorporating motor learning principles into your treatment is not a one-sized fit all approach and can be dependent on the learning style of the patient, the task and the environment. Dr. Gokeler reiterates, “There is no motor learning principle that is the gold standard.”   Despite widely accepted ACL injury rehabilitation practices, patients continue to display high incidence of re-injury and altered movement patterns. Dr. Gokeler believes, “We need to step up and come up with better rehab approaches.” To improve long term outcomes, Dr. Gokeler advises all clinicians to, “Make rehab challenging, fun but attainable.”   For more information on Dr. Gokeler: Alli Gokeler was born on 18 September 1967 in Groningen, the Netherlands. He obtained his degree in Physical Therapy in 1990 from the Rijkshogeschool Groningen. From 1991-2001 he worked as a physical therapist in the United States and Germany. Upon return to the Netherlands, he obtained a degree in Sports Physical Therapy from the Utrecht University of Applied Science in 2003. In 2005 he started on his PhD project at the University Medical Center Groningen, Center for Rehabilitation. Alli has a special interest in motor control. He’s currently working on the development of prevention programs designed to reduce primary and secondary ACL injury rate and optimization of return to sports and performance.   Resources discussed on this show: Motor Control and Motor Learning---5th-Edition Human Performance by Fitts and Posner Richard Masters: The theory of reinvestment Tim Gabbett Twitter Alli Gokeler Twitter Alli Gokeler Facebook aclrehabilitation.com   Thanks for listening and subscribing to the podcast!

In today's #PTSideHustle podcast series I talk about one of the most important things you need as an entrepreneur: the ability to network!

On this episode of the Healthy Wealthy and Smart Podcast, Dr. Jason Eure, DPT joins me to discuss intraprofessional communication. Jason is an outpatient physiotherapist based in Virginia with an interest in exploring how our innate biases are influencing our reasoning abilities and preventing constructive communication. In this episode, we discuss: -Human susceptibility to confirmation bias -How online communication differs from in person communication -Common assumptions within arguments: what is being said and what is not being said -How argumentation will progress the physical therapy profession -And so much more!   Humans are susceptible to confirmation bias and “We tend to gravitate towards people who think like we do.” Jason also stresses that individuals do not weigh evidence from every perspective and come to rational decisions but, “We have these intuitive beliefs of something we just want to believe and then after the fact we will come up with justifications for why that is true. We are really biased in the way that we come to our decisions.”   Before trying to reason with someone, Jason recommends first establishing rapport with the person and then framing the argument around their values. Jason begins each conversation by asking, “What information would have to be provided to have them change their mind.” Jason also cautions, “If someone is not willing to have their mind changed, there’s literally nothing you can say to have them change their mind.”   While it’s important to consider the biases of others before engaging in an argument, it’s even more critical to assess your own biases and be willing to accept counter evidence which challenges your beliefs. Jason stresses, “Group reasoning always is going to outperform the individuals. It is absolutely essential for us to move the profession forward collectively.”   For more information on Jason: A Physical Therapist working in the outpatient setting. Aside from caring about dogs, movies, and music- I have a strong passion for my professional field. I have been compelled to write about various topics within PT to help nudge the profession forward in any small way I can. Recently, I have invested time exploring how our innate biases are influencing our reasoning abilities and preventing constructive communication.

On this episode of the Healthy Wealthy and Smart Podcast, Naomi Mdudu joins me on the show to discuss strategies for entrepreneurial success. Naomi Mdudu founded The Lifestyle Edit in February 2015, following a string of successful positions within the fashion industry in the UK. Her love of digital media and the lack of real-life content for women inspired her to create the UK’s first digital lifestyle glossy, which has amassed a loyal following in the UK and US in the short time since its launch. In 2016 she expanded The Lifestyle Edit business to encompass a consulting company that supports the small to medium sized female founded businesses she champions on the site. In this episode, we discuss: -How Naomi made the leap from managing a content platform to consulting small businesses -How to differentiate yourself from others in your space -Strategies for on-boarding new clients and how to manage their expectations -Why you should focus on cooperation over competition -And so much more!   Pursuing entrepreneurial ventures is more about conquering fear than taking excessive risks. Naomi has found, “The fear is more about the unknown. When you really break it down, many of us don’t have anything to lose.” She has found that challenging your mindset will help squelch most doubts saying, “I’m in a really strong and empowered position.”   Seeing your work directly contribute to your personal success and benefit others is one of the many rewards of being an entrepreneur. Naomi offers, “Every day I wake up knowing that my success boils down to me and how much I am willing to put in it. I can’t think of something more liberating than that.”   Expanding a business requires delegation of certain tasks to allow more time to focus on what actually matters. From Naomi’s experience, she states, “In order for my business to grow, I need to constantly be working in my mode of genius and delegate the rest.”   For more information on Naomi: Naomi Mdudu founded The Lifestyle Edit in February 2015, following a string of successful positions within the fashion industry in the UK. Prior to launching The Lifestyle Edit, Mdudu was the fashion editor of Metro as well as City A.M.’s Style Editor and the PR to luxury Italian label Alessandra Ferreira. Her love of digital media and the lack of real-life content for women inspired her to create the UK’s first digital lifestyle glossy, which has amassed a loyal following in the UK and US in the short time since it’s launch. Hailing from South London, Mdudu graduated with a law degree, before turning to fashion and has worked with the likes of Harper’s Bazaar, Glamour and Tatler, all before reaching her mid-twenties. In 2016 she expanded The Lifestyle Edit business to encompass a consulting company that supports the small to medium sized female founded businesses she champions on the site. She’s currently living between London and New York, as she expands The Lifestyle Edit internationally.   Resources discussed on this show: The Lifestyle Edit The Lifestyle Edit Twitter The Lifestyle Edit Instagram Naomi Mdudu Twitter Naomi Mdudu Instagram 1000 True Fans by Kevin Kelly The E Myth Revisited The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People Rising Tide Society   Thanks for listening and subscribing to the podcast!

On today’s episode of the Healthy Wealthy and Smart Podcast, I welcome Jonathan David Lewis onto the show to discuss brand survival. Jonathan David Lewis is the author of Brand vs Wild, a Forbes contributor and a brand survival expert at McKee Wallwork + Co. Jonathan’s opinions are highly sought by numerous business and marketing publications, including Forbes, Digiday, and Advertising Age, where he explores the factors of stalled growth and the principles proven to help companies traverse the dangers of the brand wilderness. In this episode, we discuss: -What survival psychology can teach us about growing a business -Why maintaining success requires continual curiosity -Brand differentiation strategies and how to find your niche audience -Brand vs Wild: how to navigate the increasingly harsh business world -And so much more!   Business challenges can create fear, but fear is a primary driver of personal and business growth. Jonathan believes, “Fear is one of those emotions that is fundamental to business and career and life.”   Survival psychology describes three different reactions to adversity: being prepared, becoming paralyzed or panicking. Interestingly, Jonathan describes, “There is very little difference psychologically between a group of survivors who have crashed landed on a mountain or became lost in the desert and a group of business people who are just trying to navigate some sort of unexpected business challenge. We go through the same psychological reaction.”   Being an industry leader breeds complacency and arrogance. Jonathan warns, “One of the biggest enemies of continual learning is success.”   The age of mass marketing is coming to an end. New businesses should seek to be hyper-relevant to a very small tribe. Jonathan reminds us, “It’s okay to be small. It’s okay to be niche.”   For more information on Jonathan: Jonathan David Lewis is the author of Brand vs Wild, a Forbes contributor and a brand survival expert at McKee Wallwork + Co.   As partner and strategy director at MW+C, Jonathan led his firm to be recognized by purveyor Advertising Age as a national leader in branding and marketing, winning the Southwest Small Agency of the Year, national B2B Campaign of the Year, and national Best Places to Work awards.   Jonathan sharpened his skills during the harsh years of the Great Recession, helping brands navigate today’s unforgiving new business paradigms. Jonathan’s opinions are highly sought by numerous business and marketing publications, including Forbes, Digiday, and Advertising Age, where he explores the factors of stalled growth and the principles proven to help companies traverse the dangers of the brand wilderness.   Resources discussed on this show: Brand vs Wild Jonathan David Lewis Twitter McKee Wallwork & Company Jonathan David Lewis Website Survival Psychology by John Leach   Thanks for listening and subscribing to the podcast!

On today’s episode of the Healthy Wealthy and Smart Podcast, I had the honor of welcoming Professor Lorimer Moseley onto the show to answer audience questions regarding persistent pain. Lorimer Moseley’s interests lie in the role of the brain and mind in chronic pain. He is Professor of Clinical Neurosciences at the University of South Australia and a Senior Principal Research Fellow at Neuroscience Research Australia. In this episode, we discuss: -The Pain Revolution: creating a public discourse about persistent pain -Misconceptions surrounding the biopsychosocial model and pain -Confronting medical providers who promote negative pain beliefs -Is there merit in using placebo treatments for chronic pain? -How does Lorimer stay critical of his own scientific work? -And so much more!   Persistent pain needs to be understood not only by clinicians but the general public and policymakers. Lorimer believes, “It’s our most burdensome non-fatal condition facing our species.”   Clinicians need to understand what motivates their patients. Lorimer reminds us that, “When push comes to shove, in the raw moment, you ask a patient with persistent pain or anyone in pain, what do you want most right now? I think most of them would say pain relief.”   Medical providers hold a great deal of sway with patients. This influence can be used to validate what patients are feeling and aid the healing process. Lorimer states, “Nearly all health professionals have a natural tendency and a very slick skill set of legitimizing someone’s suffering.”   Although the biopsychosocial model differs in many ways from the biomedical model, there are many opportunities to share insights and practitioners of both frameworks should be self-critical. Lorimer advices, “It’s tempting for us to cast character judgments on those who are not like us. Actually, I think that people are trying to help their patients a lot of the time. They’re good people. I really think we need to collaborate and just keep open the possibility that we’re wrong. We have to be committed to try and prove ourselves wrong.”   For more information on Lorimer: Professor Lorimer Moseley is a clinical scientist investigating pain in humans. After posts at The University of Oxford, UK, and the University of Sydney, Lorimer was appointed Foundation Professor of Neuroscience and Chair in Physiotherapy, The Sansom Institute for Health Research at the University of South Australia. He is also Senior Principal Research Fellow at NeuRA and an NHMRC Principal Research Fellow.   He has published over 200 papers, four books and numerous book chapters. He has given over 140 keynote or invited presentations at interdisciplinary meetings in 30 countries and has provided professional education in pain sciences to over 10,000 medical and health practitioners and public lectures to as many again. His YouTube and TEDx talks have been viewed over 200,000 times.   He consults to governmental and industry bodies in Europe and North America on pain-related issues. He was awarded the inaugural Ulf Lindblom Award for the outstanding mid-career clinical scientist working in a pain-related field by the International Association for the Study of Pain, was shortlisted for the 2011 and 2012 Australian Science Minister’s Prize for Life Sciences, and won the 2013 Marshall & Warren Award from the NHMRC, for the Best Innovative and Potentially Transformative Project. He was made Fellow of the Australian College of Physiotherapists in 2011, by original contribution, and an Honoured Member of the Australian Physiotherapy Association, their highest honour, in 2014.   Resources discussed on this show: Pain Revolution Pain Revolution Facebook Explain Pain Supercharged Body In Mind Twitter Body In Mind   Thanks for listening and subscribing to the podcast!

She has presented original research at many National and International conferences, published in peer-reviewed journals and written several book chapters. In addition she is an Associate Editor of the British Shoulder & Elbow Journal. In this episode, we discuss: -Using patient history to classify shoulder pathology -Factors to consider when deciding whether to treat with surgery or rehabilitation -The nervous system’s role in shoulder instability -How to use language and metaphors to develop buy-in -Jo’s takeaways from the British Elbow and Shoulder Society Conference -And so much more!   Jo prioritizes learning about a patient’s history during the initial evaluation because it can serve as a roadmap for treatment. Jo has found that, “The biggest investment of my time is hearing how everything started and what the story has been from there.” Jo believes patient history to be more valuable than other evaluation method as she states, “The history tells me far more than any clinical test.”   Symptom modification can be an important psychological tool to encourage more confidence in a patients shoulder capabilities. Jo stresses, “It is very empowering for the patient because it shows them that if we make their muscles work differently they are stable.”   Jo’s treatment protocol includes a variety of functional exercises which utilize external cues to promote motor learning and neuroplasticity. Jo believes there is room for physical therapists to get creative with these treatments and that sometimes, “We kind of undermine the artistry of what we do.”   Jo has found that improving her communication skills has led directly to improved physical therapy treatment outcomes. Jo reminds us that, “This is about being human. Communication underpins everything we do… Patients are just the biggest source of information and actually they give us all of the clues and give us the language to use.”   For more information on Jo: Jo Gibson Grad.Dip.Phys MSc.(Adv.Pract) MCSP. Jo Gibson studied physiotherapy at the Salford College of Technlogy and qualified in 1987.

On this episode of the Healthy Wealthy and Smart Podcast, Dr. Andrew Murray joins me to discuss the building blocks of population health. Dr. Murray is a Sports and Exercise Medicine doctor, GP and runner who has worked in the Olympic, Paralympic and Commonwealth Games, the Ryder Cup and with various national and international squads. He currently works for the European and Challenge Tour Golf, the SportScotland Institute of Sport, and the Scottish Rugby Union. He is passionate about increasing physical activity for health and has worked for the Scottish Government as their first “physical activity champion”, and enjoys research with the University of Edinburgh in this area. In this episode, we discuss: -The role of preventative care as the foundation for population health -How much exercise is enough? -How sleep and diet contribute to optimal health -Practical tips to implement healthier lifestyle changes and ways to advocate in the community -And so much more!   Modern medicine is capable at combating many ailments however, Dr. Murray believes, “What isn’t working at the moment is preventative medicine.”   From international government relations to community outreach programs, collaboration, education and other forms of social support are needed for more individuals to achieve optimal health outcomes. Dr. Murray stresses, “Everyone’s got a role as being part of the solution.”   Physical activity has been shown to be a key prevention tool. Dr. Murray encourages everyone to at the very least start small and get moving as, “Something is better than nothing…You’re never too late, you still got time…Start today.”   Although preventative medicine is not an immediate fix for patients, Dr. Murray encourages practitioners and the broader industry to adopt a long-term perspective for better outcomes over time. Dr. Murray is a proponent of, “If we do the basics right then good health will follow.”   For more information on Dr. Murray: My background is as a Sports and Exercise Medicine doctor, GP and runner, whilst I have written a couple books, enjoy a load of speaking engagements and do a little journalism. As a runner, I have completed challenges including a 4,300km run from far north Scotland to the Sahara desert, 7 ultra-marathons on the 7 different continents in under a week, and with Donnie Campbell the first run across the mighty Namib desert and a run across East Africa. Race wise, I’ve placed first in the North Pole Marathon, the Antarctic Ice Marathon, the Gobi Challenge, the Indo Jungle Ultra, and races closer to home, whilst also competing for Scotland in various events. Work wise I have worked at the Olympic, Paralympic and Commonwealth Games, the Ryder Cup and with various national and international squads. I currently work for the European and Challenge Tour Golf, the SportScotland Institute of Sport, and the Scottish Rugby Union from the elite sport side of thing, but am passionate about increasing physical activity for health. To this end, I worked for the Scottish Government as their first “physical activity champion”, and enjoy my research with the University of Edinburgh in this area. Getting active, and staying active really is the best thing you can do for your health. Each step is a step to health. I needed a good kick up the backside from a mate to get active again after university, and urge everyone to GET ACTIVE today, and spread the word. Updates from various capers, health promotion stuff and injury advices will appear in my blog and the site content will be updated. My next big adventure is a husky riding, running extravaganza to Outer Mongolia in temperatures around -40 celsius in January 2016.
