Episode 64 - SI Joint Pain: A Pain in the Butt?

In this episode of Three Questions, I dive into the research, myths, and missing questions surrounding SI joint dysfunction.  I chat about why treating the SI joint in isolation often leads to frustration, and how sensory feedback, brain mapping, and movement patterns may be playing a much bigger role than you think. I also share my own experience with SI joint pain, challenge some common assumptions about stability and mobility, and explain why the answer might not be at the SI joint at all. In This Episode You’ll Hear: * Why SI joint pain is considered multifactorial and what that actually means * How poor sensory awareness can cause the SI joint to do jobs other joints should be doing * Why improving hip function, proprioception, and whole-body organization may matter more than “fixing” the SI joint If there's one thing I hope you take away from this episode, it's that pain is rarely as simple as the location where the person is feeling it. Sometimes the most meaningful changes happen when we stop chasing symptoms and start asking better questions about the whole system.

Episode 63 - Your Nervous System Doesn't Need More. It Needs Better.

Are you actually regulating your nervous system… or just giving it more things to do? In this episode of Three Questions, I explore the growing world of neuro wellness tools, from cold plunges and red light therapy to breathwork and vagus nerve stimulation.  But instead of asking whether these tools “work,” I challenge us to ask a deeper question: are they helping us support the real problem, or distracting us from it? In This Episode You’ll Hear: * Why sleep, movement, digestion, and social connection still outperform most wellness trends * How to tell if a neuro wellness tool is supporting you or becoming a crutch * Why regulation isn’t about doing more and what it’s actually about.  Whether you're a movement professional, a wellness enthusiast, or someone who owns approximately 47 neuro wellness tools, this episode will help you think more critically about what your nervous system actually needs.

Episode 61 - The Art of Asking Better Questions

Are you just asking questions hoping someone confirms what you already believe? In this episode of Three Questions, I unpack the art of asking better questions and why it matters in teaching, relationships, learning, and even personal growth. I share stories from my courses, my interviews, my marriage, and even working for my dad to explore how communication breaks down and what we can do differently.  In This Episode You’ll Hear: • The three types of answers most people are really looking for • Why defensiveness shuts down curiosity and communication • How better questions can turn passive learning into active problem-solving Whether you’re a movement teacher, clinician, coach, or just someone trying to communicate more clearly, this episode will help you realize that sometimes the biggest obstacle isn’t a lack of information. It’s not knowing what questions we actually need to ask.

Episode 60 - The Questions We Shouldn’t Wait to Ask - Part 2: A Conversation With My Mom

In this episode of Three Questions, I sit down with my mom for a conversation about motherhood, marriage, identity, family, and the stories we carry from generation to generation. We talk about the invisible labor of being a mother, the pressure women feel to “do it all,” family dynamics, and why confidence sometimes looks very different on the inside than it does on the outside. In This Episode You’ll Hear: • Why “doing what works for your family” mattered more than following parenting advice • How family dynamics shape confidence, boundaries, and identity • Why it’s never too late to stay curious, learn new things, and become more yourself This conversation made me laugh, reflect, and appreciate how much wisdom can live inside ordinary stories, especially from the people closest to us. I hope this episode encourages you to sit down and have the conversations with the people you love most sooner rather than later.
