Description

After three years (almost) and more than 140 episodes, a pattern has become impossible to ignore: better outcomes don’t come from doing more, they come from seeing more clearly.

In this episode of the Unreal Results podcast, I zoom out and reflect on the themes that shaped this year of conversations, teaching, and clinical work. We explore why the body’s wisdom consistently points us toward simplicity, how assessment precision creates clarity instead of overwhelm, and why confidence grows when you trust what the body is already telling you.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why assessment should create freedom, not complexity, in clinical decision-making
  • How better specificity makes treatment lighter, faster, and more effective
  • What happens when you stop chasing tools and start trusting the body’s direction
  • How a whole-organism assessment changes both outcomes and clinician confidence

This episode is a reminder that you don’t need to do more to get better results — you need to listen better and let assessment lead the way.

Considering the viscera as a source of musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction is a great way to ensure a more true whole body approach to care, however it can be a bit overwhelming on where to start, which is exactly why I created the Visceral Referral Cheat Sheet.
