In this episode, I talk with Dr. Courtney Conley, world renowned foot expert and author of Walk: Rediscover the Most Natural Way to Boost Your Health and Longevity One Step at a Time, about why walking is not exercise—it’s a physiological necessity. Dr. Courtney makes the bold case that walking speed should be the sixth vital sign. Research shows that a slower walking pace can be predictive of things like dementia and increased cancer risk, and that simply adding 500 steps to a 2,500-step baseline can reduce all-cause mortality by 7%. We also challenge the 10,000-step myth and explain why living in the 5,000–8,500 step range delivers powerful benefits—especially when you sprinkle in five-minute “movement snacks” and intentional faster walking. We go deep into foot strength and modern footwear, including why one in three people over age 45 has foot pain, how constant cushioning can weaken the foot, and why pronation is mandatory for a healthy gait. Dr. Courtney explains her “24-hour shoe clock” concept—there’s a time and a place for everything, but the goal is trending toward barefoot functionality so the foot can do what it was designed to do. It’s a practical, motivating conversation about strengthening your feet, improving your walking speed, and reclaiming this fundamental human movement that impacts every system in your body. Dr. Courtney Conley holds a Doctorate in Chiropractic Medicine and bachelor’s degrees in Kinesiology and Human Biology. She is the founder and creator of Gait Happens and has worked with professional athletic organizations including the Phoenix Suns, New York Yankees, Cleveland Browns, New York Giants, San Francisco 49ers, and Minnesota Vikings. Dr. Conley serves as Head of Patient Care at Total Health Solutions and Total Health Performance, premier healthcare destinations known for their comprehensive, science-based approach to patient care. TIMESTAMPS: Our survival as a species has hinged on one key factor: movement. (Dr. Conley) [01:17] Why are we treating the foot so much differently than we're treating the rest of the human body? [07:07] Gait Happens is an online educational company. [10:48] The super cushioned shoes can improve performance because it allows your foot to not have to do the work that it is designed to do. But you need to get your feet stronger. [14:32] One out of three people over the age of 45 have foot pain. [18:39] Walking should be integrated throughout the day. [24:10] On the bottom of the foot, we have many sensory receptors. When we put cushioned shoes on, we compromise some important sensory information. [27:09] The speed of one's gait can be predictive of longevity. [28:43] When the heel hits the ground, it starts the cascade of the foot unlocking or pronation. That is a mandatory thing that has to happen. [34:46] The 10,000 steps we have heard so much about is kind of a myth. [39:36] Walking is all about rotation. You are nourishing your joints. You’re loading your spine and bones. Your muscles are active and your nervous system is engaged. [46:28] There is a difference between ambient walking and intentional walking. [47:40] In her clinic, the most common things she sees are heel pain and big toe pain. [49:18] Many folks in the running population who are heavy users of the elevated cushion shoes visit her clinic to learn ways to strengthen their feet. [53:17] What exercises and strengthening can people learn from your book? [54:38] Your shoe should respect the anatomy of the foot. The widest part of your foot should be the toes.

This week on Simplifying Cyber, Aaron Pritz and Cody Rivers sit down with Nick Sturgeon — CISO at Community Health Network, Speedway Town Councilor, and current Ph.D. candidate at Purdue University — for a conversation about the challenges of securing systems that no longer stay within four walls. When healthcare happens almost everywhere, how do you keep patients, caregivers, and data secure? Nick shares how his IT background landed him a role in law enforcement, he walks through some of the unique challenges cybersecurity practitioners face in healthcare today, then touches on what politics taught him about understanding people's motivations in the workplace.
Dr. Andrew Marshall, a 2015 Meharry alumnus, joins Dr. James E.K. Hildreth to discuss his journey from emergency medicine to a clinical specialist role at Google. With advanced training in bioinformatics from Harvard, he now leverages artificial intelligence and digital health innovation to improve health literacy, expand equitable access to care, and enhance online health information. In the conversation, they explore algorithmic equity, AI's role in underserved communities, and why future healthcare professionals must "get familiar with AI" to lead in the next era of medicine.
What if the most powerful clinical tool in healthcare wasn't a drug, a device, or a data platform — but a word? In this episode of Experiencing Healthcare, Jamie and Matt have a conversation that starts with Disney World germs and ends with something that will change the way you lead your team tomorrow. They unpack the idea of Intentional Positive Reinforcement — not the hollow "great job" you throw over your shoulder in the hallway, but the kind of deliberate, meaningful recognition that creates a ripple effect all the way to the patient's bedside. Matt shares what a dental hygienist taught him about doing things right, why a pair of clicking heels in a nursing home hallway was actually a leadership strategy, and what happens to a healthcare team that only ever hears what they're doing wrong. This is a conversation for the bedside nurse and the C-suite executive. For the credentialing specialist who never sees a patient and the clinical coordinator who sees dozens. Because in healthcare, everyone plays a role in the patient experience — and the way we lead people determines the care those people deliver. If you've ever wondered whether your words are adding to your team or subtracting from them, this episode is your answer.

Hello to you listening in Olympia, Washington! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more) for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga. I am a storyteller of the old school. What do I mean? For over 30 years I've taught (and continue to teach) my clients and students the same thing: “Put down the paper and nobody gets hurt!” Why? Because storytellers have something to say that comes from their aliveness, which is what people most want to feel and connect with. Sharing our stories out loud brings them to light and life, and encourages us to do what most folks fear more than snakes: stand up and speak up in public. Story spoken aloud is what we leave of ourselves in another person. A story is an intimate lasting legacy, a permanent inheritance much like a vow or an oath. When we share our stories out loud, we connect with each other, we belong to each other. We might not realize it but we are creating a verbal promise, a vow, an oath of belonging. Think about how many times we've heard someone say, "Repeat after me: I solemnly swear..." Marrying couples pledge faithfulness through the challenges and joys of marriage. Lawyers uphold the law, maintain client confidentiality, and act as an officer of the court. Doctors focus on ethics, patient care and societal responsibilities. Politicians preserve and defend the Constitution. US military support and defend the Constitution against all enemies. Immigrants becoming US citizens swear the Oath of Allegiance to the United States during a formal naturalization ceremony. From the time we are children in school we recite The Pledge of Allegiance, a patriotic promise of loyalty to the United States flag and the republic for which it stands. What happens when we share our stories out loud? They become real. We say what we mean, we mean what we say. We—and those hearing us—know what we stand for and what we won't stand for. Yes, you might write a story but it needs to be shared out loud to enrich and include the wider world. That's the legacy of the stories we leave in those who have heard them spoken aloud.

Living with the End in Mind: Dr. Pyle emphasizes the importance of preparing for the inevitable. It’s not about being morbid; it’s about ensuring better days today by planning for tomorrow. In this episode of "Next Steps 4 Seniors: Conversatoins on Aging, host Wendy Jones welcomes Dr. Pamela Pyle, internal medicine physician and author of "Anticipating Heaven," to discuss end-of-life care.

They often have more time to provide insights and can be a great resource, especially during quieter times. Recording Conversations: Don’t hesitate to record medical conversations. It’s your right, and it helps ensure you don’t miss any critical information. Family Conversations: Dr. Pyle shares her unique approach to discussing end-of-life wishes with family. She even turned it into a birthday celebration! These conversations are crucial and can be a gift to your loved ones. Advanced Care Planning: Only 30% of Americans complete an advanced care plan. Tools like Five Wishes make it easier and more heartfelt. It’s a simple, affordable way to ensure your wishes are known and respected. Every week brings two ways to grow: Tuesdays dive into the physical next steps with real-life guidance for seniors and families, and Fridays uplift the heart with spiritual and emotional next steps—encouragement, faith, and hope for the journey ahead. Today’s episode explores the transformative power of forgiveness and its vital role in experiencing an abundant life as we age.

Send us a MessageIn this episode of Culture Change RX, Sue Tetzlaff, cofounder of Capstone Leadership Solutions, discusses the prevalent belief in healthcare that working harder leads to better results. She challenges this notion, emphasizing that sustainable success comes from changing how work is done rather than increasing effort. Sue highlights the importance of understanding what needs to be done differently, fostering competency and consistency in new practices, and the role of systems in facilitating transformation. She also addresses the often need for external support in learning how to implement changes effectively and warns against starting from scratch or reinventing the wheel when seeking improvement.Key TakeawaysThe belief that working harder leads to better results is flawed.Sustainable success comes from changing how we work, not how much we work.Better engagement and outcomes require different leadership behaviors.Competency and consistency in new practices is essential for changes in results.External support can significantly aid in the success and speed of organizational transformation.Avoid starting from a blank slate; use proven systems as a foundation for the new way of working.If you are exploring ways to strengthen execution systems and leadership infrastructure, you can learn more about scheduling a complimentary systems discovery conversation here:CapstoneLeadership.net/Contact-UsWe're stepping forward in a bigger way—growing our team of rural healthcare experts, growing our capabilities by adding a strategic planning division … all of this so we can expand our ability to help even more rural hospitals and other small healthcare organizations in 2026. … We'd love to explore how we can support your organization in being the provider- and employer-of-choice so you can keep care local and margins strong!

In this episode of the Inside EMS podcast, Chris and Kelly are joined by paramedic student April McKenzie — aka “April Anonymous” — for a deep dive into the buffer system and CO2 mapping. April's in the thick of paramedic school and like every good learner, she's asking “why?” — so the guys break down the physiology behind capnography, acid-base balance and the lungs-vs.-kidneys showdown that keeps our patients alive. Plus, they throw in old-school war stories, rant about naloxone misuse and admit that bicarb is no longer the go-to cardiac arrest drug. If you've ever tried to explain respiratory vs. metabolic acidosis in under 10 minutes, this episode is your cheat sheet. April will be back throughout the year with more student questions, so buckle up for the ongoing EMS education you didn't know you needed. Quotable takeaways “Just because you see somebody with signs and symptoms and the protocol says, do this; that's OK, but that just makes you a protocol paramedic.” “My friend Romy Duckworth calls [capnography] the MVP of vital signs, and that's a good way to remember it — MVP: Metabolism, Ventilation and Profusion. And it will tell you derangement about all three of those things very well once you're proficient at interpreting the waveforms.” “Basically, the buffer system is the body's way of keeping the pH stable. So, if we're blowing out, if we're having problems with respiratory acidosis — and let's talk about CDKA, where they're trying to blow off — it's the respiratory systems' way of making sure that we have homeostasis.” Enjoying Inside EMS?

The Dunning–Kruger Effect is a cognitive bias where:Lower-skill individuals tend to overestimate their competence, andHigher-skill individuals often underestimate theirs.Translation for the busy clinician: early on the learning curve, confidence spikes (“Mount Stupid”) because we don’t yet see the complexity. As experience accrues, confidence dips (“Valley of Despair”) with growing awareness, then rises again—grounded in nuance and humility.Key insight: True expertise ≠ louder certainty; it’s often quieter, more curious, and more collaborative. How It Applies to the Emergency Department Procedures (e.g., central lines, TVP): Watching a 5-minute video creates “I got this” energy—until the wire won’t pass, the patient thrashes, or you hit carotid. Competence includes troubleshooting in context.Skill Decay is Inevitable: If you haven’t done a chest tube or a TVP in months, you’re not as sharp as last time. Without deliberate refreshers, you drift below the safe-performance line.Everyone’s a Novice Somewhere: New disease entities, evolving algorithms, new tools (POCUS, decision support) mean even attendings routinely re-enter novice zones.Feedback Blind Spots: Lower performers can both overestimate their skills and resist feedback—while many high performers (particularly women, per discussed literature) undervalue their abilities.Culture is Clinical: The ED demands decisive action amid uncertainty. Psychological safety + confident humility lets teams surface alternative diagnoses, challenge momentum, and correct course fast. ⏩Immediate Action Steps for Your Next Shift Run a 60-second debrief on two casesWhat went well? What would I do differently next time? Write one improvement you’ll test today.Play “What if the opposite were true?”Anchored on “lumbosacral strain”, Ask, What if fever/incontinence appears? How does that change my path?Solicit 360° micro-feedbackAsk a nurse, resident, and peer: “One thing I did well; one thing to improve.” Say “thank you,” not “but.”Schedule a HALO refresher this weekPick one high-acuity, low-occurrence procedure (TVP, cric, thoracotomy). Do a 10-minute mental model + equipment walk-through; book sim time if available.Adopt a pre-procedure pauseIf X goes wrong, I’ll do Y. Name two likely failure modes (e.g., “wire won’t advance,” “delirium/agitation”) and your first corrective step.Language shift on shiftSwap “I’m sure” → “I’m reasonably confident, here’s my plan B.” Invite input: “What am I missing?” Conclusion The Dunning–Kruger Effect isn’t a moral failing; it’s a predictable human pattern that every clinician rides—often multiple times per day in the ED. The antidote is metacognition: routine reflection, explicit debiasing, deliberate practice, and feedback within a psychologically safe culture. 🚨 Clinical Bottom Line Competence is quiet and curious. The more we know, the more we recognize what we don’t—and the better we become at caring for patients and each other. Further Reading Dunning D, Kruger J. Unskilled and Unaware of It (1999).

Orthopedic surgeon Kevin J. Campbell discusses his article "Health care is having its Yahoo moment." Kevin explains how the current medical system is stuck in an obsolete pipeline model similar to early internet directories where human gatekeepers create dangerous delays in communication. He introduces the concept of delayed relevance where patient questions about fever or swelling lose value if answered days later and advocates for an AI-driven platform approach to provide immediate physician-vetted responses. The conversation explores how shifting to automated systems can relieve staff burnout while increasing patient trust through consistent and timely guidance. We must embrace this technological evolution to deliver the responsive and effective care that modern medicine demands. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.
