What are your values? - Episode 116

In today's episode, Shaun talks to Erin about values: what they are, why they're useful, and how to actually hold onto them in practice. Values can sound like one of those concepts that's easy to nod along to but hard to pin down. What actually counts as a value? Do they ever change? And once you know what yours are, how do you keep living them out when clinical practice gets messy and real life gets in the way?

Acupuncture & Dry Needling – Why the division? - Episode 113

In this first episode for 2025, Shaun chats to Gavin Kervill (The TCM Medic) from the United Kingdom about the challenges that exist between the Dry Needling and Acupuncture professions. Gavin shared some fairly strongly worded objections to Dry Needling online, in the comments of one of the ACE posts about Dry Needling. So, Shaun invited Gavin to chat about these issues online and both agreed that if the conversation was a balanced and useful one, that we would make it into a podcast… And here we are! We trust that this episode will help to build greater interdisciplinary understanding and to improve the respect shown between practitioners of each modality. Enjoy.

The importance of reflection - Episode 112

In today’s episode, our last for the 2024, Shaun and Bo discuss the importance of reflection in the process of improving what we do clinically, but also more broadly about how reflection can be used in all areas of life. It is the process that helps correct our direction when needed, it can help us avoid repeated mistakes, overcome adversity, reinforce positive actions, and get greater clarity about what we want and why. We hope you enjoy this episode, and use it to undertake your own reflection, to help guide you toward your best year yet in 2025.
