In this episode I sat down with Alyssa Ford, aa Doctor of Physical Therapy, running coach, and strength and conditioning specialist who specializes in working with runners. We discussed Alyssa's remote rehab and performance coaching business, her approach to working with runners, and the importance of individualized care and collaboration in the coach-athlete relationship. Alyssa shares insights on the misconceptions surrounding running and its impact on the body, emphasizing the research that supports the benefits of running for joint health. She also highlights the significance of addressing the mental and emotional aspects of injuries and provides strategies for navigating the challenges of injury recovery. The conversation touches on topics such as pain science, load management, and the role of communication in healthcare. Alyssa also talks about her role as a race director for a race in Montana that supports a non-profit organization called Warrior Transition Outdoors, which helps veterans and their families transition back to civilian life through outdoor experiences.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
