Allen Wood joins Susan for this wide-ranging conversation about how Allen does his life! Allen is Susan’s chiropractor and friend, and she has long admired his commitment, tenacity and enthusiasm for his career and his many pursuits. A 9th degree black belt in Karate, Allen shares how the early life lessons he learned by jumping in “with both feet” to karate have informed his choices and approaches throughout his life. He recently started a business – teaching Active Release Technique in Europe - with his husband, Jim. Prior to that, while they were both working full-time in their careers, they worked together to film a documentary about their artist friend Theophilus Brown, a painter who was part of the Bay Area Figurative Movement. Enjoy this episode and conversation with multi-passionate human Allen Wood!
