I recorded this one expecting a health conversation. I got that, plus a founder story I haven't stopped thinking about.

My guest is Dr. Ashley Katzenbach, a physical therapist who spent 15 years inside the traditional insurance-based PT model before she hit what she calls her "midlife crisis" at 40.

Three patients an hour. Twenty minutes of real hands-on time if she was lucky. A system that told her what she was allowed to treat based on a code, not what she actually saw in front of her. One sentence from a patient changed everything, and she went home and filed her LLC that same day.

We also get into why she believes almost every unexplained ache in your body traces back to one part of your body and the three supplements she recommends to nearly every woman she treats... especially through perimenopause and menopause.

In this episode:

• Why the insurance-based healthcare model (and plenty of business models) isn't broken because of the people in it, it's broken by design
• The "seesaw effect": how your feet quietly throw off everything else in your body
• What's true, and what's overhyped, about orthotics and going barefoot
• Collagen, creatine, and omega-3s: the three most evidence-based supplements for joint pain, and why the gummy doesn't count
• Why there's no such thing as balance, just seasons and tradeoffs
• How to advocate for yourself in any rushed appointment, medical or otherwise

Resources mentioned:

• 🎙️ Podcast episode on creatine — a deeper dive on creatine's benefits, referenced in this episode.

We want to hear your thoughts!

This week on Fearlyss & Unfiltered, Alyssa is joined by Priya Patel, host of I Wish I Knew That, for a conversation about inner work, visibility, and what it actually takes to show up online as yourself. Priya shares how her journey started with something as simple as noticing her own thoughts, and how that awareness eventually led her into coaching, and into a years-long fear that her personality was too unhinged to be taken seriously in her field. Alyssa and Priya talk through what visibility really means, why "fixing" yourself isn't a prerequisite for helping others, and the moment Priya decided to stop shrinking her personality to fit a mold that was never hers to begin with.

If you've done some of the personal development work and you're still holding back from showing up fully online, this one's for you.
