Today’s guest is someone I’ve been watching on Instagram for a while – and smiling every time I see her. I’m thrilled Dr. Yonnie Procter agreed to come on the show to discuss her role as a physical therapist and trainer in an online space.

We discuss:

• How physical therapy has evolved over the years
• How Dr. Yonnie is reaching others through her Instagram feed
• What kind of foundation we should have before trying fun, creative movements we see on social media
• Where to find inspiration in creative movement
• The process of finding joy in movement 
• The basic fitness “toys” Dr. Yonnie recommends
• The importance of education and awareness of resources to encourage healthy communities
