Optimizing Human Performance, the Importance of Communication Skills, and an Awesome Ronald Reagan Impression

Maximizing the health and performance goals of your clients requires several qualities. While having a model surrounding movement and other health factors are incredibly important, how often do we consider the health of ourselves in the equation? If you do not have a healthy social life, difficulty interacting with other people, and continue to improve our knowledge base, how can we achieve buy-in? The best plan will not work.

That and so much more happened in a recent podcast I did with my good friend Robbie Bourke. In this discussion, we touch on several topics:

  • My background
  • What are the good and not so good things that I currently see with the physical therapy and human performance professions, and what solutions I offer for the not so good things he is seeing
  • How can we teach and encourage critical thinking skills?
  • My model to optimize human performance
  • The importance of having a social network
  • My growth so far as a human being
  • How I have used adversities in his life to facilitate my communication when working with clients?
  • When do we stop making allowances for people’s behavior?
  • My in person assessment process with a patient
  • What have been the biggest lessons I’ve learned so far in my life
  • How do I learn?
  • What are my top resource?
  • My amazing Ronald Reagan impression
  • If I had only 1 year left on planet Earth – how would I spend that year and why?
  • If I could invite 5 people to dinner, dead or alive, who would I invite and why?
