This week on the podcast I am joined by Julia Blackwell. Julia is a fascia release practitioner, educator, and creator of The Fascia Remedy. Julia was born with severe nerve damage to her right shoulder and grew up going through the broken Western medicine system. After 23 years of being told her condition would never improve and feeling no lasting relief from any treatments, she was introduced to a unique type of fascia release bodywork. In just 3 months of this fascia specific work, she saw more improvement in the feel and function of her arm than she had in 16 years of traditional treatments. This experience catapulted Julia into learning everything she could about fascia, the critical roles it plays in our movement and overall health, and how to restore it. After learning multiple modalities and working with clients over a decade, she's formulated her own approach for bodywork & foam rolling work called The Fascia Remedy.   On this episode we walk about what unhealthy vs. healthy fascia feels like, the benefits of releasing fascia, and how to release fascia at home. We also discuss how unhealthy and tight fascia relate to past trauma, how other dis-eases and issues in our bodies might be related to our fascia, reducing pain in our bodies, and so much more!   DISCLAIMER: Please keep in mind this episode is not mean to act as medical advice.

Walker Ryan is a New York City based professional skateboarder and author. Walker grew up in northern California skating from a young age. By the time he was in high school he was traveling from his small home town to San Francisco to skate the big city. Unlike most professional skateboarders he enrolled in college after graduating high school and that was when he career finally took off.

In this episode we discuss all of this and much more.

Earlier this month I had the privilege of starting the new year at Organika, one of the top health supplement companies in the world, talking with their team about positivity and purpose as we enter 2021. Organika was started right here in Richmond in 1990 and over the years has grown through a commitment to being a world-class leader in supplement products, company culture and giving back to their community. I recorded the presentation, Starting the New Year With Purpose, to share with our listeners. I hope you'll tune in as I open up about my inspiration, my late mother Devi, and share some of the lessons she taught me that have shaped the mindset I have today. I also present 5 steps to staying positive and 6 steps to driving productivity, both of which are more important than ever due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In conclusion I gave the Organika team a link to our worksheet, Reflect Before You Project. I hope you'll find some inspiration and guidance in this presentation and choose to start your new year with purpose.Show notes:0:33 - Intro1:20 - Purpose Smoothie Co1:33 - My Inspiration, My Mom, Devi Ralla5:46 - Positivity Is A Choice8:51 - You Are The CEO Of Your Life.

Die Vakuumdestillation als Abwassertechnik in der Galvanik Im zweiten Teil meines Podcasts zu diesem Thema habe ich gemeinsam mit Thomas Dotterweich und Markus Bardzinski von H2O über den konkreten Einsatz dieser Technologie in der Galvanotechnik gesprochen. Was ist möglich? Wo liegen die Grenzen? Welche Abwässer sind geeignet? Für Abwässer aus dem galvanischen Beschichtungsprozess kommt die Vakuum-Destillation insbesondere für die Entgiftung von Spülwässern in Betracht. Wichtig ist, dass das zu behandelnde Abwasser keine festen Frachten, wie z. B. Schlämme oder Sedimente mehr trägt. Diese würden während der Destillation Energie aufnehmen und diese nachher wieder abgeben, ohne dass dies einen positiven Effekt auf das Ergebnis hätte. Daher führen solche Inhaltsstoffe zu einem erhöhten Energieeinsatz, was die Behandlung unwirtschaftlich macht. Auch Konzentrate sind häufig nur sehr bedingt für diesen Behandlungstyp geeignet, weil naturgemäß hier schon eine hohe Konzentration an Inhaltsstoffen vorliegt. Die Vakuum-Destillation würde hier mit hohem Energieeinsatz nur noch wenig zur weiteren Aufkonzentration beitragen. Insofern ist die Konzentrat-Entgiftung eher mit anderen Technologien wie z. B. den klassischen physikalisch-chemischen Behandlungen geeignet. Ein Problem stellen solche Stoffe dar, die bei der Destillation Beläge in der Maschine bilden würden. Zu nennen sind hier eher Lacke, Farben oder Leime, die wir aber im Allgemeinen in unserer Branche nicht finden. Wie werden die Abwässer vorbehandelt? Wie schon oben erwähnt, sollten Feststoffe vor dem Einbringen in die eigentliche Destillation entfernt werden. Aber auch der pH-Wert des Abwassers spielt eine große Rolle. Weite Bestandteile der Anlage sind aus Edelstahl gefertigt. Häufig sind die Abwässer sauer, was über die Zeit diese Edelstahl-Komponenten angreift. Sicherlich kann man hier noch höherwertigere Materialien einsetzen, was aber die Kosten für die Maschine erhöht. Einfacher ist es hier, den pH-Wert vor dem Einbringen in die Destillationskammer zu neutralisieren oder in den schwach-alkalischen Bereich zu erhöhen. Weiter sollten Giftstoffe, die ggf. in das Destillat übergehen könnten, vorher entgiftet werden. Zu nennen wären hier z. B. die Cyanide. Diese stören zwar die eigentliche Destillation nicht. Könnten aber anschließend Probleme bei der Wiederverwendbarkeit des Destillats erzeugen. Wie wird das entstandene Destillat zum wiederverwendbaren VE-Wasser? War das eingesetzte Spülwasser wenig belastet und/oder hat die Vorbehandlung gut gearbeitet, ist das Destillat häufig direkt als VE-Wasser in den Spülen wiederverwendbar. Sollten sich noch Organika, Lösemittel oder Ammoniak im Destillat gelöst haben, käme jedoch eine Nachbehandlung in Betracht. Man kann die Wässer dann z. B. über Aktivkohlefilter oder über Ionenaustauscher führen und erhält anschließend prozesssicheres Spülwasser, dass direkt in der eigenen Galvanik eingesetzt werden kann. Welche Vorteile hat die Vakuum-Destillation im Vergleich zur physikalisch-chemischen Behandlung? Darüber, dass die Vakuum-Destillation sich selbst mit Strom als Rohstoff für die Behandlung begnügt, hatten wir im ersten Teil schon einmal gesprochen. In Verbindung mit einer Fotovoltaik-Anlage lässt sich so eine ressourcenschonende Abwasseranlage realisieren. Zunächst einmal ist der Platzbedarf deutlich geringer. Die klassische Abwasseranlage besteht aus einer Reihe von Vorrats- und Behandlungsbehältern, sowie häufig aus einer Kammerfilter-Presse. Selbst eine größere Vakuum-Destillation benötigt dabei kaum mehr als 20 m2. Weiter lässt sich ein Teil des Ergebnisses der Behandlung, nämlich das Destillat, als Spülwasser im eigenen Prozess wiederverwenden. Für den Fall, dass man wegen äußerer Zwänge abwasserfrei arbeiten muss, ergibt sich hier eine optimale Möglichkeit. Aber auch für problematische Abwässer, z. B. solche mit einer hohen Fracht an Komplexbildnern, die sich mit der physikalisch-chemischen Abwasserbehandlung nur bedingt entgiften lassen, stellen für diese Technologie kein Problem dar. Ein weiteres Beispiel sind Grenzwerte, die sich mit den klassischen Methoden nicht oder nicht prozesssicher erreichen lassen. Auch hier kann man mithilfe dieser Technologie unterstützend oder ersetzend arbeiten. Letztlich ist der Preis pro behandeltem Kubikmeter entscheidend. Für diesen Faktor gibt es keine allgemeingültige Aussage. Hier gilt wie sooft: „Kommt drauf an.“ Aber in jedem Fall kann man über eine Einzelfallbetrachtung unter Berücksichtigung der vorhandenen Stoffströme errechnen, welche Technologie die günstigere ist.
