Episode 396: Joy is built in! Mar 16, 2021

Show notes

What greater joy can you have than to help a pregnant momma have a natural delivery? What greater joy can you have than to help a baby who is not well get back to health? What greater joy can you have than watching a child with Autism have better eye contact, better social communication, less tantrums? I can think of no other profession in the world that has joy built in to it. All you need is your training, your hands and your heart and joy is inevitably seen across our practice member's faces! What greater joy?

Episode 395: "Three Big Questions" Mar 09, 2021

Show notes

Three big questions to ask yourself about your purpose: "Is it big enough, Am I uniquely positioned to pull it off, Am I passionate about it?" Does your mission keep you up at night, thinking of ways to accomplish it? I'd like to add a 4th question: Can you see yourself doing this for the rest of your life? These concepts are adapted from Fred Swaniker's article in medium, found here: https://medium.com/@FredSwaniker/resist-that-calling-it-s-probably-not-your-purpose-in-life-1dd33a297185

Episode 394: Creating a judgement-free zone Mar 02, 2021

Show notes

"The safest way to travel on chiropractic hi-ways" is a brief story in one of BJ's pamphlets. It is BJ's way of saying to create a judgement free zone in our practice. Kids on the spectrum should not be looked at as disabled but 'differently-abled'; a non-verbal child isn't non-verbal...they just don't speak OUR language. When you create a judgement free zone, kids on the spectrum feel ok to be themselves and this helps them reach their fullest potential. All kids feel welcomed no matter what their label. That is a happy safe place!

Episode 393: The 'Noom'- channel your fear into energy Feb 23, 2021

Show notes

It is totally normal to have fear. It's what you do when you feel the fear that really counts. Dr. Ian Grassam told a story about The 'Noom'---the anxiety you might feel before a major sporting event or stage production that you are playing in. He said when you feel those 'butterflies' in your stomach or chest, that is called the 'Noom'...a word that means to channel your fear... into performance!

Episode 392: Evolution or De-evolution? Feb 16, 2021

Show notes

Is humanity evolving or de-evolving? There are 2 sides to this story. First, we are constantly evolving in what humanity produces, from creating the wheel in ancient Babylon, to refrigeration and toilets, and now to iPhones and laptops and Amazon today. Incredible things we have produced! But are we happier? More satisfied? Do we feel safer? Or are we becoming ever more disconnected? What do you think? This talk was originally posted in 2018 and recorded at the 2018 ICPA Family Wellness Summit.

Episode 391: Three beginnings Feb 09, 2021

Show notes

My three favorite beginnings: Newborns, pregnant mommas, and children on the spectrum. Our health care system has failed our society in providing health. Chiropractic gives newborns, pregnant mommas, and children with Autism a new beginning. We change their trajectories, helping newborns have a better start, assisting pregnant women to experience a more holistic birth, and watching children with Autism reach their fullest potential.

Episode 390: Will your future self thank you? Feb 02, 2021

Show notes

"What decision can you make now that your future self will thank you for?" Les Brown asked that question in a recent video and it stopped me in my tracks. He then said, "the only thing that separates me and you is the time I spend." What time are you investing in you, in your family, in your future? What can you do NOW that your future self will thank you for? This is a BIG idea!

Episode 389: What is your "Something?" Jan 26, 2021

Show notes

Everyone has 'that something' inside of them, that drives them, that motivates and inspires them. What is your 'something'? For me, it's kids, especially those with special needs. What is your passion? What do you tend to study more, focus on, read more, and when you discuss that topic, you feel it, really feel it in your gut? That is your calling, your 'something.' Find it, hold onto it, run with it!

Episode 388: Chiropractic is Founded on Neurology Jan 19, 2021

Show notes

BJ Palmer's "Slip on the Snowy Sidewalk" does not mention chiropractic's function as relieving pain but releasing pressure on nerves, restoring mental impulse flow, restoring health. DD Palmer's 1910 text says on the first page that chiropractic is founded on tone! DD and BJ were the first chiropractic functional neurologists, before they ever understood how far reaching that thought process was!

Episode 387: Disruption Jan 12, 2021

Show notes

To disrupt means to interrupt, with hopes to cause radical change. Disruptive innovation is a concept that we need to apply more in chiropractic, to change people's thinking from allopathic to salutogenic, from sickness care to wellness care, from pain to brain. One of my favorite statement's is: I am not a back doctor or a spine doctor; I am a brain and nerve system specialist.' Teach our patients what we really do! This podcast originally aired in May 2018.
