  • #50. Understanding pain beyond the myths with Dr Tawny Kross
    May 13 2025

    Is your pain alarm system overreacting?
    We often think of pain as a sign of damage - something to fear, avoid or push through. But what if pain isn’t just about injury? What if, like an oversensitive smoke alarm, it sometimes goes off when there’s no real danger? In this episode, I talk to Dr. Tawny Kross, a Doctor of Physical Therapy and Pain Specialist, to explore the truth about pain, the biggest myths holding us back, and how movement can actually help, not harm.
    If you’ve ever felt stuck in pain, unsure whether to rest or move, or frustrated by conflicting advice, this conversation is for you. Tune in to learn how to listen to your body more wisely, better understand and retrain pain responses and start moving with confidence again.

  • #49. From Pills to Purposeful Steps: Sir Muir Gray onWalking as Medicine and Rewriting the Narrative of Ageing
    May 6 2025
    Can walking really change your future?
    Sir Muir Gray believes it can. At 80, he’s still leading a revolution in public health. His latest mission is simple: get people moving more, every day. In this episode, we explore why walking is one of the most powerful tools we have - not just for prevention, but as part of the cure.
    We talk about Muir’s four S’s; Strength, Stamina, Suppleness and Skill, and how they’re vital for living better, not just longer. From brisk walking to strength bands and standing on one leg while brushing your teeth, this is a conversation packed with practical insights, heartfelt honesty, and the kind of wisdom that might just change the way you move through life.
