  • In this insightful episode, we dive deep into the topic of self-sabotage, a common but often unrecognized struggle that many face, especially within the healthcare field. Our guest, Kathy Harlow, an expert in emotional release and balancing techniques, joins us to explore how subconscious beliefs formed in early childhood can impact our professional and personal lives.

Through a blend of kinesiology testing and conscious coaching, Kathy helps individuals identify and transform these limiting beliefs, allowing them to regain clarity, confidence, and a sense of purpose.


    In this episode, you’ll learn about the difference between conscious and subconscious minds, how early life experiences shape our behaviors, and practical steps you can take to overcome self-sabotage.

  • Today, I'm diving into a topic that's close to my heart: how to revitalize your career if you're feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or stuck in your role as a Physical Therapy Assistant (PTA). If you’ve been experiencing burnout and self-sabotage, it might be time to break free and explore new opportunities.


    In this episode, I’m going to talk about how burnout is becoming a major issue in our field. We all feel the pressure from demanding productivity standards, impersonal group treatments, and the frustrating lack of pay and advancement opportunities. I know these challenges all too well. About 12 years ago, I was in the same place you might be now—feeling stuck and unfulfilled. I eventually left my PTA role to become an entrepreneur and open my own clinic. I realized I needed to find a new path that allowed me to help people more effectively and find greater personal satisfaction.


    I'll share my personal journey and the strategies that helped me overcome burnout and self-sabotage. We’ll cover practical tips for identifying what’s holding you back, pursuing advanced education or certifications, and creating a plan for career advancement. I’ll also touch on the benefits of becoming a Stretch Mobility Coach and the importance of understanding legal considerations if you’re thinking about going solo.

  • Join me as we explore the inspiring journey of Jennifer Johnson, who transitioned from burnt out Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) to a successful Stretch Mobility Coach. With 14 years in outpatient care, Jennifer faced challenges like bureaucratic red tape and insurance limitations, prompting her to seek new avenues for personal and professional fulfillment.


    Jennifer's pursuit led her to earn certifications in yoga, meditation, and holistic health. Despite these achievements, uncertainty clouded her career path until mentorship provided clarity. Eventually Jennifer embraced the role of a stretch mobility coach, launching her clinic in Leesburg, Georgia.

    Join me as we dive into Jennifer's journey of resilience, clarity, and community impact through innovative healthcare practices. Her story is a testament to overcoming challenges, finding purpose, and making a profound difference in the lives of others.
