Ever wondered how to turn national physical activity guidelines into meaningful community change? This eye-opening conversation reveals the roadmap for developing state-level physical activity plans that make movement a priority where Americans actually live, work, and play.Wellness Paradox host Michael Stack shares the journey of building the Michigan Moves Coalition, showing that creating transformative plans doesn't require extensive resources—just passionate advocates willing to collaborate. "All health is local," highlighting why adapting evidence-based national strategies to meet specific community needs is so critical for improving public health outcomes.The process follows a clear framework: first, building a coalition of physical activity stakeholders; second, partnering with state health departments; and third, recruiting sector leaders across healthcare, education, parks and recreation, faith communities, and more. What began in Michigan with just six organizations has grown to nearly 60 representatives from over 50 major institutions—all committed to making the active choice the easy choice.With over 80% of America's $4.9 trillion healthcare spending going toward chronic disease management, these state-level planning efforts represent not just a public health necessity but an economic imperative. The beauty lies in their accessibility—you don't need to reinvent the wheel, just adapt existing frameworks to your local context while focusing on measurable wins that build momentum.Ready to start a movement in your community?

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Dr. Sarah Erdner, PhD, CMPC, to spotlight a topic often overlooked in the world of sports—coach mental health. Dr. Erdner, author of Dear Coach: What I Wish I Could Have Told You, unpacks the emotional burden coaches silently carry and how athlete well-being is often a reflection of coach well-being. Through intimate stories, powerful insights, and tangible steps, this episode challenges the sports world to reframe leadership, rethink "culture," and offer care to those expected to always lead. About the Guest:Dr. Sarah Erdner is a Clinical Associate Professor of Kinesiology, Certified Mental Performance Consultant, and author of Dear Coach. Her groundbreaking work began with research interviews and evolved into a nationwide dialogue about emotional labor, empathy, and systemic change in sports. She advocates for psychological safety, multicultural awareness, and intrapersonal reflection among coaches. Key Takeaways: Coaches are often viewed solely as a means to winning, which fuels burnout and poor mental health. Emotional neglect of coaches trickles down to athlete well-being and performance. Writing "Dear Coach" letters—both as a reflection and feedback tool—can start essential cultural conversations. Authentic leadership begins with acknowledging one's cultural identity and emotional limits. To create truly high-performing teams, organizations must prioritize coach support systems at par with athlete mental health.

Most injuries don't need surgery. They need the right signal to help the body start healing. Dr. Andrew Fix sits down with Kathleen Heiney, the founder of LINC Golf & Wellness and ReGen3 Therapeutics, to talk about shockwave therapy and its role in treating tendinopathy and chronic pain. What happens when you stop chasing quick fixes and start supporting the body's natural healing process? For Kathleen, it meant turning her own recovery into a deeper obsession, and eventually, a business. They walk through the two types of shockwave therapy, radial and focused, and when each is most effective. From stubborn shoulder issues to post-surgical rehab, Kathleen shares examples of how this non-invasive treatment can help stimulate regeneration and reduce pain without relying on medications or surgery. How long does it actually take to heal? What should you expect after a session? And why do so many people give up just before their body turns a corner? This episode has a lot of insights for anyone curious about alternative therapies or looking for answers when traditional treatments fall short. Quotes “This technology, you know, is noninvasive. Hardly any downtime. You're getting your body healed. So I started thinking to myself as I was referring so much business to [the podiatrist], I started getting shockwave [therapy] for free. And I thought to myself, okay, so why am I not starting this business?” (04:31 | Kathleen Heiney) “Not everybody needs to go under the knife... There's a lot of ways that we can rehab our body. And combining physical therapy and shockwave therapy is just one modality.” (05:50 | Kathleen Heiney) “What the radial will do is it will kind of break it up. And I want to say subcutaneous because it's only like an inch and a half. So it starts to create that microtrauma to get the blood flowing back to the area so that the tissue can start to heal again. So we're kind of rebooting the healing process.” (10:59 | Kathleen Heiney) “For anything that's worthwhile, you've got to maybe go through a little bit of discomfort to get there. Mentally, physically, emotionally, all the good things require a little bit of discomfort to get to that.” (16:31 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “You will either choose to invest in your health and wellness now, or you'll be forced to pay for your sickness and disease later down the road.” (56:37 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “We all just want to be able to do the things that we want to do when we want to do them. And in order to do it, we need to really take care of ourselves and address things so that they don't become bigger problems.” (59:37 | Dr. Andrew Fix) Links Connect with Kathleen Heiney: www.lincgolfandwellness.com www.regen3therapeutics.com Kathleen Heiney holds a Master's in Kinesiology from Indiana University and has spent over 35 years teaching, coaching, and working in fitness and wellness. She's the founder of LINC Golf & Wellness, offering professional golf instruction, yoga, and wellness retreats.

Episode Overview In this episode of Thriving Practice, I speak with Sarah Clark, founder of Sarah Clark Consulting, who helps medical, dental, and chiropractic practices transform operational chaos into sustainable calm. Sarah's approach combines fractional practice administration with process improvement strategies that allow providers to focus on patient care rather than administrative burdens. We explore how small, intentional changes in technology and workflow can dramatically improve both the patient experience and staff satisfaction. Sarah shares concrete examples of how simple solutions like automated appointment reminders have freed up staff time and improved patient punctuality by 30% in one practice. Her compassionate, results-driven methodology emphasizes that providers don't need to make sweeping changes all at once – even incremental improvements can lead to significant positive outcomes for practice efficiency and provider wellbeing. Featured Quotes "What I do is I help private medical, dental, chiropractor, anything in that field...turn their chaos into calm. And I sort of make a joke of, well, not all the way calm, more like calm-er. Because if it's really quiet and it's really calm, that's probably also like it's never really gonna happen that way." "Burnout is not just taking care of the patients and dealing with that burden that gets put onto their shoulders, but having to run an office when a physician did not go to business school becomes really difficult...It's overwhelming. That's a full-time job." "There are ways that you can do that and take some of the manual part of the stuff that leads up to that diagnosis...once the clients, once the business owners understand that it's okay to elevate something else off of you, to give it to somebody that has the experience and the time and the understanding to do it, it is, I mean, I have two clients that will just send me a text message about whatever it is and they used to say just handle it, now that just handle it is understood." What You'll Learn Listen for these key insights: How the "Four P's" framework (People, Paperwork, Processes, and Patients) can transform your practice Why technology adoption doesn't have to be overwhelming—and how small changes like automated appointment reminders can have outsized impacts The surprising connection between provider burnout and patient experience How fractional practice administration can provide expert support for practices that can't justify a full-time administrator The critical importance of developing a strategic plan for your practice, including your eventual exit strategy Why compassion isn't just good medicine—it's good business (with scientific evidence to back it up!) Resources Mentioned Compassionomics: The Revolutionary Scientific Evidence that Caring Makes a Difference - Book recommendation from Sarah about the impact of compassion on patient outcomes and provider burnout Thriving Practice is hosted and executive produced by Tracy Cherpeski.

The absence of physical activity from critical national health policy conversations represents a profound failure of advocacy that demands immediate attention. In this eye-opening episode, our host, Michael Stack explores how the Department of Health and Human Services' recent announcement to combat chronic disease through "safe, wholesome food, clean water and elimination of environmental toxins" completely omitted any mention of movement or physical activity – one of the most powerful health intervention available to Americans.This glaring oversight serves as a wake-up call for everyone passionate about movement and health. We simply aren't winning as a physical activity community when we remain invisible in national health policy conversations. Despite overwhelming scientific evidence showing that just 150 minutes of weekly movement delivers more health benefits than any other intervention of comparable time commitment, physical activity continues to be marginalized or completely forgotten in public health planning.In this episode, we outline concrete steps for becoming effective advocates – from building relationships with local officials to engaging with state and federal representatives. The path forward requires both top-down organizational advocacy and grassroots engagement from passionate individuals willing to have conversations that elevate physical activity to its rightful place alongside food, water, and environmental factors. Until we secure our seat at the policy table, America's health will continue to suffer from this critical oversight.

Are you feeling off but can't pinpoint the cause of your frustrating symptoms? Have you considered that mold could be the culprit? Today's guest shares insights into the symptoms of hidden mold exposure and mold remediation to heal and improve your overall health. This week on Salad with a Side of Fries, Jenn Trepeck welcomes functional health coach Jenn Malecha to share her personal journey with hidden mold exposure and the profound impact it had on her health. Jenn M. opens up about her skin cancer diagnosis, unexplained symptoms, and the shocking discovery of black mold in her home office. Together, they uncover why mold often goes undetected, the dangers of mycotoxins, and how symptoms like brain fog, vertigo, and digestive issues can easily be misdiagnosed. From mold sabbaticals and testing methods like VCS and urine analysis to the importance of professional remediation, this episode is packed with crucial insights. Plus, Jenn M. shares her toxic checklist to help you identify hidden hazards in your environment. Don't miss this eye-opening conversation—your health might depend on it!The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, who discusses wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: (04:56) Jenn M. shares her professional background and discusses her skin cancer diagnosis(07:33) Jenn M. experienced health problems, leading her to discover black mold in her home (15:17) Why mold exposure can often be overlooked and what about mycotoxins(22:06) Symptoms associated with mold exposure in your home and taking a mold sabbatical(27:46) Visual contrast screening (VCS) and urine testing(33:03) Get a professional to do mold remediation(39:16) Jenn M.'s toxic checklist available to members and EMF radiationKEY TAKEAWAYS:While not all mold is dangerous, certain types release toxic compounds called mycotoxins, which can cause significant health problems. These toxins often go unnoticed in homes, especially in water-damaged buildings.The symptoms of mold exposure, such as ear ringing, vertigo, teeth grinding, brain fog, and digestive problems, often resemble those of other conditions. This can lead to a misdiagnosis, as traditional medicine treats symptoms individually rather than considering an underlying cause like mold or mycotoxins.If you suspect mold exposure, go on a "mold sabbatical" by leaving your home for a few days, ideally staying in nature. If symptoms improve outside your usual environment, this could indicate a mold issue in your home.Visual contrast screening (VCS) and urine tests can help detect mold exposure, but they are not foolproof. Proper mold remediation should include sealing off affected areas, using air scrubbers, and treating mold with appropriate solutions (not bleach). Additionally, diet and detox protocols should be personalized to support recovery.QUOTES: (13:18) “That innocent mildew in the shower, you think nothing of it, but it could be a sign of moisture accumulation in your home. That mildew can further burden the body if you're already dealing with a moldy situation.” - Jenn Malecha(19:45) “The body will encapsulate toxins and mold in the fat, and we start putting on weight that we can't lose because it's the body's protective mechanism. So it's brilliant, it's frustrating, but it's a brilliant mechanism.” - Jenn Malecha(21:14) “The confusing piece is that the symptoms connected to mold or mycotoxins look like symptoms of many other things. And so as our western medicine system does, we address all of those symptoms individually rather than saying, well, what else could be going on here?” - Jenn Trepeck(36:06) “I want everybody to hear it, but it bears emphasis that we remove these foods for a while to support healing. That allows us to add those foods back in eventually.” - Jenn Trepeck(43:34) “Take the steps that we're willing and able to take when we're willing and able to take them versus feeling like you have to do everything all at once and then are totally overwhelmed.” - Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramWhat Your Thyroid Says About the Rest of Your Health (feat.

The health and fitness industry stands at a crucial crossroads as qualified exercise professionals prepare to step into the healthcare system as trusted providers. But amid this transformative opportunity, a troubling question emerges: are we actually ready?As Physical Activity Alliance President, I've observed a growing divide in our field. While some forward-thinking professionals eagerly prepare for healthcare integration, many remain comfortably fixed in the status quo, content to serve the already-active 20-25% of Americans while giving mere lip service to concepts like "exercise is medicine." This division threatens our collective ability to address America's physical inactivity crisis when the professionalization moment arrives—and make no mistake, that moment is coming whether we're prepared or not.This professionalization effort isn't merely about industry status. When qualified exercise professionals become qualified healthcare professionals (QHPs), they gain the trust of medical communities, can bill insurance for services, increase earning potential, and dramatically expand their reach beyond traditionally fit populations. More importantly, they become positioned to transform healthcare delivery through what is undeniably the most profound intervention one can make on a minute-by-minute basis for health improvement.For this transformation to succeed, we need comprehensive changes across our industry. Facility owners must evolve their imagery and messaging beyond young fit models, hire truly qualified professionals, reconstruct compensation models away from commission-based systems, and develop evidence-based programs that produce measurable outcomes. Exercise professionals must pursue proper education, obtain registry-recognized certifications, specialize in working with chronic disease populations, and hold themselves rigorously accountable for client results.This is my rallying cry to everyone in our field: educate yourself on these coming changes, adjust your practices accordingly, and help spread awareness throughout our industry. The future of fitness—and possibly healthcare itself—depends on how we respond to this historic opportunity.Show Notes Page: https://www.wellnessparadoxpod.com/podcast/episode/141Our Host: Mike Stack, BS, ACSM-EP, ACSM-EIM, ACSM-PAPHS, CSCS, FMFA Mike Stack is the founder & CEO of Applied Fitness Solutions, the Michigan Moves Coalition and the More than Movement Foundation.

Discover why physical inactivity needs to be recognized as a national crisis with the potential to impact our economy and national security in ways you never imagined. Join our host, Michael Stack, as we challenge conventional thinking and propose a provocative, strategic shift in public health messaging. With healthcare costs devouring a staggering 20% of GDP, it's time to acknowledge the $117 billion burden of inactivity and inspire industries, governments, and communities to prioritize physical activity as a frontline intervention.Uncover the startling reality that only 23% of young adults are fit for military service, and learn why the lack of fitness in the population poses a genuine national security threat. We explore the critical importance of promoting physical literacy among youth to combat early onset of chronic conditions and secure a healthier future. By rethinking the narrative and emphasizing immediate economic benefits, we aim to galvanize a movement that positions physical activity alongside essential public health initiatives, securing the investment needed to implement effective programs at all levels of society.Show Notes Page: http://wellnessparadoxpod.com/episode140Our Host: Michael StackMichael Stack is the founder & CEO of Applied Fitness Solutions, the Michigan Moves Coalition and the More than Movement Foundation.
