  • On My Soapbox About Informed Consent
    Mar 17 2021

    Did I get on my soapbox a little bit for this episode? Maybe? 
    But then is that also what it always feel like when I do solo episodes? Yes.

    Informed consent is SO important (and our legal right as patients!) yet not always given. I love seeing the narrative around this start to shift and I think it is important to keep talking about it. We often have to be our own advocates and advocates for our children so this episode is dedicated to understanding what informed consent is and isn't.

    Thanks for tuning in! If you have 10 seconds to spare please drop 5 stars in Apple Podcasts and give a review-- it really helps me out!

    Oh, and find me on over on Instagram!

    Feb 25 2021

    Today is part 3 of our little dive into primitive reflexes. Today I broke down the spinal galant, TLR, and STNR reflexes and what they tie into!

    Reflexes are not the only piece of the puzzle-- but they are definitely a foundational piece. If you haven't listened yet, you can find Part 1 here and Part 2 here. 

    Don't forget to follow along over on Insta and it would mean the world if you took 10 seconds to drop 5 stars in Apple Podcasts!
