PROSPER Performance & Physical Therapy

  WANT TO BE FREE TO ENJOY LIFE'S ADVENTURES? The Air Force brought me many invaluable experiences and some pretty epic opportunities. When I was a freshman in college, I was selected for an elite training program - the opportunity to train and earn my Jump Wings. Yep, skydiving! I had told myself if I was selected, then I was meant to go. So, I did. My roommate was selected, too. We were scheduled to go at the same time. How freaking cool is that?! We were put in the same small group & were in the same plane for all our jumps. It was exciting & frightening at the same time! The nerves continued to build as our first jump approached. All the other groups had already had their first jump the day prior, but we had to postpone due to weather. Talk about anticipation and suspense! It was finally our time to jump. I was scheduled to jump before my roommate. When I climbed to the airplane door & positioned myself in the preparatory position, I zoned in. It was j...

  WHO IS HIDING INSIDE YOU WAITING TO BUST OUT? 1 year ago, I made a decision that changed my whole trajectory in business. I had already broken free from traditional therapy practice after yrs of working in the military & traditional outpatient settings. I had already taken a risk to start my own practice, with the guidance (and security) of a business partner. It was going pretty well. I was able to keep overhead down, I had a steady source of clientele, & I was building a name for myself. But, something was missing. Something was holding me back. I couldn’t quite put my finger on it at the time. My biz partner came from a traditional business mindset. Working harder was the only way to get results, he would tell me. Though I respected his success & experience, I felt like there was a better way. I had been hesitant to leave this comfort zone, but God made it clear one day that it was time to move on. Circumstances led me to the ultimate knowingness that it was...

  NOT TODAY, SATAN! I'm a dreamer. I am also a very logical thinker. This combination is extremely suitable for an entrepreneur, but also extremely debilitating at times! It often brings me to a state of overwhelm... of paralysis by analysis... of inner conflict of what is right for me. My mind gets stuck in a hamster wheel. What do I do next? Is this aligned with my big vision? Is it aligned with my Divine purpose? Am I doing this out of selfishness or out of true Divine inspiration to be even greater? I find myself so conflicted at times that I just want to drop it all. Forget it. I'll just be ordinary. Thank God for my AMAZING support team! I understand now that this is normal and not all bad! I need to continue to keep myself in check and prayerfully consider every action. But, I must push myself think bigger! I am NOT here to be ordinary. I have such a major purpose on this earth, beyond what my logical mind can even think. Of that, I am certain. I see now t...

  WHY ALIGNMENT DURING PREGNANCY & LABOR MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE My son wasn’t ready to make his grand entrance (or exit, really). We were anxious, so we jumped on the opportunity to induce labor… even though we were still weeks from due date. For the record - I do NOT recommend elective induction due to impatience. Lesson learned. It was soon apparent we'd started the delivery process before he was ready. "It will only take you a few pushes,” I heard - but it didn’t. Unbeknownst to me, there was discussion of a c-section. He was face- up (or "OP"). We joke about it now… he just wanted to “see the world” or “keep his face pretty.” But it was really pretty serious. Babies don’t fit in the birth canal well when the hard skull is against the hard pelvis. There's a reason they face the back of the mother as they get ready to exit. I was able to push him out anyway, as the doctor turned him as best she could. But, it was not without consequence. The m...
