Being Human S02 E07 Dr Kris Harm shares his journey, the importance of mentorship and philosophy

In this episode of the Being Human / Chiropractic Revolution podcast, Dr Alun Walker speaks with chiropractor Dr Kris Harm about his remarkable journey from Sweden to building a successful chiropractic career in the United Kingdom. Kris reflects on how a serious gymnastics injury at the age of sixteen introduced him to chiropractic for the first time and changed the course of his life. After studying at the Scandinavian Chiropractic College, he moved to London in the late 1990s with determination but very little support, learning the realities of running a chiropractic practice through experience, persistence and curiosity. The conversation explores the challenges many new chiropractors face when leaving university, particularly the lack of business training and mentorship available early in their careers. Kris explains how those experiences motivated him to create a support network for students and new graduates, helping them develop both the practical and philosophical foundations needed to succeed in practice. They also discuss the role of chiropractic philosophy, the famous 33 principles, and why understanding the bigger picture of health and wellbeing can transform both the practitioner and the patient experience. Kris shares how conferences, podcasts, books and community learning have shaped his approach, as well as the influence of mentors and colleagues throughout his career. Along the way, the discussion touches on writing books, creating resources for patients, the relationship between food and health, and the importance of curiosity, personal development and continuous learning within the profession. This episode offers valuable insight for chiropractic students, new graduates and experienced practitioners alike, highlighting the power of mentorship, community and a lifelong commitment to growth. #Chiropractic #Chiropractor #ChiropracticLife #HealthcarePodcast #BeingHumanPodcast #ChiropracticRevolution #Mentorship #BusinessOfHealthcare #ChiropracticPhilosophy #HealthAndWellbeing #HolisticHealth #NewGradSupport #ProfessionalDevelopment #PodcastInterview #WellnessJourney

Danny Scarhill returns to Being Human and Chiropractic Revolution for an in-depth follow-up conversation with Dr Alun Walker, diving deeper into chiropractic business, mindset, and professional growth.

The conversation explores Danny’s three published books, including Total Health Transformation, 80/20 Chiropractic, and his latest collaborative release drawn from the Chiropractic Mindset Mastery podcast. Danny shares how he writes by voice, the discipline behind publishing at speed, and why modern chiropractors must continually adapt while staying true to chiropractic principles. A major focus of the episode is mindset mastery, meditation, breathwork, journalling, and Danny’s concept of “gratitude on steroids”. He explains how daily intention-setting, emotional awareness, and structured reflection can dramatically improve clarity, performance, and wellbeing in both practice and life.

Being Human S02E04 – Donald Francis & Laurie Coburn on Luminate and Chiropractic Growth

In this energising episode of Being Human, host Alun Walker welcomes back two hugely influential figures in modern chiropractic: Donald Francis and Laurie Coburn. Together they unpack the thinking, philosophy and practical frameworks behind Luminate, their fast-growing coaching and training movement supporting chiropractors, CA teams and new graduates across the UK and beyond. Donald explains the origins of brain-based chiropractic, outlining how human adaptation, stress and predictable neurological patterns create a clear, principled model for care. Laurie shares how culture, community and connection sit at the heart of thriving practices—especially in rural areas where relationships matter just as much as technique. They discuss how Luminate’s Success Formula was built, why mindset sits at the top of the hierarchy, and how values, certainty and communication shape real patient transformation. From supporting new graduates who are nervous to adjust, to helping associates step into confidence, to guiding seasoned chiropractors through practice restructuring, both guests speak honestly about growth, mistakes, learning curves and the power of mentorship. The trio also look ahead to the future of chiropractic amid GCC changes, sharing their belief that truth, clarity and principled communication will guide the profession through any regulatory shift. Uplifting, funny and full of practical insight, this episode offers inspiration for chiropractors at every stage of their journey—and a compelling glimpse into the heart of what makes Luminate such a transformative force. #BeingHumanPodcast #ChiropracticRevolution #DonaldFrancis #LaurieCoburn #Luminate #BrainBasedChiropractic #ChiropracticCoaching #MindsetMatters #ChiropracticCommunity #PracticeGrowth #ChiropracticCulture #PersonalDevelopment
