    18/09/2022 Duração: 01h01min

    "It’s the idea that how you’re together matters far more than what you’re doing together. It’s this “how” that determines whether the relationship is going to thrive." —Michael Fulwiler of The Gottman Institute So how do good relationships work? How important are compatible relationships to our life?  Falling in love can lead to a relationship, but what is needed for it to truly last?

If two entities align: schedules, beliefs, age, culture, work ethic, the assumption is often that a match has been made. Compatibility is the synchronization of different values between partners; It is how you get along as a couple - moving, loving, and growing in harmony. Understanding your role in someone else's life is extremely important and may look and feel different to each of you.

    03/01/2019 Duração: 01h05min

    Most Americans Live to Work whereas most Europeans Work to Live. Are you someone who loves their job and feels rewarded? According to the 2017 Gallup Poll, 70% of employees in today’s workforce are not engaged at work, meaning they are not psychologically committed to their jobs, happy in the workplace and likely to be making positive contributions to their organizations. Chances are, you are or at some point will be part of the 70% of employees who are disengaged at work, drawing a paycheck and going home. Or maybe part of the 51% of employees actively looking for another job. If you are an avid listener of this podcast you have met plenty of people who genuinely love what they do for work and feel fulfilled doing it. What do people really desire in order to be happy?

    13/12/2018 Duração: 01h12min

    Many people think of physical therapy, or PT, as "rehab", or something you need after surgery or an injury. There are many misconceptions when it comes to PT like you need a referral to see a physical therapist, or it's only appropriate for people who have had surgery or seriously injured themselves, or physical therapy is only exercise based. I admit, before meeting Ryan I had the misconception that physical therapy doesn't work because it hadn't worked for me in the past.  Ryan Godfrey with Change the Game Physical Therapy is literally changing the game when it comes to managing pain, healing injuries, and getting people back to doing what they love. Ryan believes PT empowers individuals to take a pro-active approach to their health. He also believes Physical Therapists should be seen as the experts in musculoskeletal health, providing clients with a holistic alternative to medications, injections and surgery. Physical Therapists can also educate clients on the importance of lifestyle modifications, like

    Nowadays parents are clamoring to put their kids in the best sports programs, like travel baseball.
