Reframing the Way We Experience “Pain” with Greg Mack, CEO and Founder of Physicians Fitness

Pain is so much in our worldview these days, as we are dealing with an opioid epidemic and pain management clinics and practitioners are everywhere we look. What if we could reframe what we understand about pain and recognize it for what it really is: Sensations in our bodies that we don’t like…? That’s the approach Greg Mack takes in his work, helping people who aren’t fully responding to medical interventions, who are willing to try another approach through exercise and physical conditioning. As Greg explains, “pain” is a physical sensation we experience and describe… attaching a variety of words and meanings to, but it isn’t an actual tangible thing we can measure. Each person’s experience with it is unique and subjective. What I might consider a 10 on the

“Relentless Forward Motion: Just Keep Moving…” with Ultramarathoner, Evan Jensen

“Success requires a certain amount of discomfort, pain, and suffering. If you want results, you have to be OK with that.” ~ Evan Jensen While he’d been interested in health and fitness for a long time, writing for health and wellness newsletters and magazines was his day-job, Evan Jensen shifted into running because of a friend. It was in St. George, Utah, and the friend was talking a “big game” about running the local marathon. Evan thought, “It can’t be that hard!” And decided to give it a try. He discovered there was a powerful draw for him in running and kept at it. After 30-40 marathons, it had become easy to him. He was sure there must be something more than that… There was – is! It’s called Ultramarathon

Why Sharing Your Story Matters with Phyllis Nichols EP: 35

On today’s episode of Making Space for Conversations that Matter, an interesting thing happened. We began a conversation about one thing and along the way took a few sharp turns and ended up on a completely different topic! But isn’t that the way great, organically-unfolding conversations go? We started with this: How does one become the magician behind the curtain, turning voice-based sound recordings into something powerful, audiologically attractive, and easy to listen to? If you’re Phyllis Nichols, Founder of SoundAdvice Strategies and the woman leading the production team that produces this – and numerous other – podcasts, you take a bit of a circuitous route! Prior to the rise and global expansion of the internet and all its relevant technology, it would have been nearly impossible for someone like

Learn to do Life from Right to Left with Dr. Robert Rohm EP: 34

Dr. Robert Rohm had an experience I think many of us have faced at some point in time. He was absolutely confounded by the behavior of one of his daughters… and in his attempt to figure it out, he got received some really clear guidance, which led him to focus his time, effort, and energy on understanding others. That spark moved him into a whole new focus for his life and work. Dr. Rohm is the Founder of Personality Insights, a company that has him traveling the globe working for organizations and companies large and small helping people learn about personality. While there’s certainly a depth of self-awareness hidden in what he teaches, his purpose and recommendation to participants is to help us see, hear, and understand others better. His
