Why Everything You Were Taught About Movement Might Be Wrong with Dr. Yuji Suzuki

What if the way you were taught to think about movement is actually limiting your patients' ability to heal? Dr. Yuji Suzuk (@yujgains [https://www.instagram.com/yujgains/]) never set out to challenge the rules, but the more he studied, the harder it became to ignore how many of them weren't built on solid ground. Now as the founder of Kintsugi Performance and Rehab, he's asking a different question entirely: not "how do we fix this broken part?" but "how do we give this person more ways to move, so they can handle whatever their environment throws at them?" In this conversation, David and Yuji go deep on ecological dynamics, the constraints-led approach, and what it actually looks like to build humans who are resilient instead of fragile. They challenge traditional movement rules, take a hard look at what pain management is really for, and make the case for why variability in movement isn't something to correct. It's something to train.

Collaborative Practice, Clinical Art, and the Future of Chiropractic with Dr. Donald Mull

What if the thing holding most young chiropractors back isn't their knowledge — it's the black and white thinking school drilled into them? Dr. Donald Mull [https://www.instagram.com/dmull11] never saw a chiropractor before going to chiropractic school. He came in without the bias most clinicians carry in, and that turned out to be one of the greatest advantages he could have had. Now he's building something at Kinetic Impact that the profession desperately needs more of — a collaborative, multi-disciplinary team where PTs, chiropractors, and strength coaches work together so seamlessly that patients can't tell who's who. In this conversation, David and Donald go deep on what it actually takes to evolve as a clinician, why freedom is the defining characteristic of great practice, and what it looks like to build a team that functions more like a championship locker room than a healthcare practice.

From Burnout Models to Better Care with Dr. Kimbra Runyan

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Kimbra (@dr.kimbra.runyan)  to talk about what happens when clinicians realize the traditional model isn’t sustainable and decide to build something better. We dive into the realities of burnout in high-volume care settings, the pressure to produce over truly serve, and the moment she knew there had to be another way. Dr. Kimbra shares how she transitioned from operating inside a system that left her drained to creating a practice model rooted in intention, outcomes, and long-term patient relationships. We also unpack the mindset shifts required to step outside the “mill” mentality, build confidence in your clinical voice, and design a career that aligns with both your values and your life. From evidence-based care to entrepreneurship, motherhood, and redefining success, this conversation is equal parts honest and empowering. If you’ve ever questioned whether the way things are done is the way they have to be done, this episode will challenge you to think bigger.

Getting REAL About Clinician Identity, Chronic Illness, Toxic Positivity, and Self-Worth with Dr. Susie Squats, DPT

What if doing meaningful work in healthcare meant redefining what “sustainable” actually looks like? This episode of ChiroShift is one of our most honest conversations yet. Taylor sits down with Dr. Susie "Squats" Spirlock (@dr.susie.squats [https://www.instagram.com/dr.susie.squats/]) a physical therapist, barbell rehab coach, business owner, and human navigating chronic illness in real time. Susie gets deeply real about the not-so-pretty side of being a clinician and entrepreneur while managing HEDS, long COVID, gut issues, and the constant identity shifts that come with them. She shares her journey from traditional clinic life to building a values-aligned business that actually supports her health instead of destroying it. They unpack the identity crisis so many clinicians face, the pressure to perform online while dealing with real limitations, and how chronic illness reshaped the way Susie coaches, leads, and shows up for her clients. This conversation challenges hustle culture, toxic positivity, and the idea that your worth as a clinician is tied to how much you can produce. If you’ve ever loved this profession but questioned whether it can love you back, this episode will land hard... in the best way.

Beyond Traditional Rehab with Dr. Hannah Sadowsky

This episode kicks off a brand new ChiroShift series focused on clinicians who are doing things differently, and starting with the identity behind the title. Taylor sits down with Dr. Hannah Sadowsky (@hsadowsky [https://www.instagram.com/hsadowsky/?hl=en]) physical therapist, strength coach, former high-level gymnast, and clinician at Old Bull Athletics, to explore how blending coaching, rehab, and performance can reshape both patient outcomes and professional fulfillment. Hannah shares her journey from competitive gymnastics to physical therapy school, hospital-based care, and ultimately finding her home at Old Bull, where one-on-one, outcome-driven care replaces high-volume, insurance-based models. She opens up about the identity shift that comes with stepping outside traditional PT roles, learning to sell outcomes rather than time, and gaining confidence through repetition, education, and lived experience. The conversation dives deep into gymnastics-specific rehab and performance, including return-to-sport decision-making, managing extreme forces, working with hypermobile athletes, and applying principle-based care in the absence of formal clinical guidelines. Hannah breaks down how strength, load management, and positional training are essential for reducing reinjury risk, particularly in populations like gymnasts, cheerleaders, and dancers, and why movement and training must extend far beyond the treatment table. Taylor and Hannah also explore broader themes relevant to all clinicians: informed consent, navigating imposter syndrome, collaborating with medical teams, ethical decision-making, and redefining what “enough” care really means. From adult gymnastics and inner-child movement to working with athletes with neurological differences, this episode highlights what’s possible when clinicians lead with principles, clarity, and confidence instead of rigid systems. This conversation is for physical therapists, chiropractors, and healthcare providers who feel constrained by traditional models and are curious about hybrid care, strength-based rehab, and building a career that aligns with both their values and their expertise.
