    What Your Body Has Been Trying to Tell You | Breath, Movement & Recovery with Dr. Aissa McGuirl

    What if your exhaustion, pain, or restlessness isn’t something to fix, but something to listen to? In this episode of Work Is Third, Dawn Hunter sits down with Dr. Aissa McGuirl, physical therapist and author of Connect the Body Dots, for a grounded conversation about what our bodies are trying to tell us and why so many of us aren’t listening. Together, they explore how breath, movement, and recovery are foundational to nervous system regulation, sustainable energy, and long-term health. Dr. McGuirl shares why constant productivity keeps us stuck in survival mode, how body awareness can change the way we work and live, and what it really means to support your body instead of pushing through it. This episode is an invitation to slow down, reconnect, and rethink what “taking care of yourself” actually looks like in a culture that rewards burnout and productivity. 📚 Guest Info Website: connectthbodydots.comIG @dr.aissa_YouTube: connectthebodydotsBook: Connect the Body Dots, connectthebodydots.com/thebookLet’s Stay Connected 🎧Subscribe to the show! 📬Subscribe to The Joyful Rebellion Newsletter 📸 Instagram: @workisthirdlife

Adrienne Tucker, founder of Generation NOW Alaska, joins Work Is Third to talk about chronic illness, caregiving, boundaries, and the truth behind showing up sustainably.

    When Your Body & Life Are Shifting | Perimenopause, Midlife, and Change With Jody Phifer

    Midlife isn’t a decline — it’s a shift. In this episode of Work Is Third, Dawn sits down with Certified Midlife Coach Jody Phifer for an honest, grounding conversation about perimenopause, menopause, identity, and what it really means to put yourself first after decades of caregiving, hustling, and holding it all together. Together, they unpack why perimenopause is just one part of a much bigger midlife transition, how to navigate symptoms and changing bodies with compassion (not shame), and why this next chapter can be just as — if not more — badass than the first.

    The Inner King: Hustle, Heal, and Break the Cycle | Adam Wilson

    We’re taught to hustle. We’re never taught to heal. That changes in this episode. Mindset and wellness coach Adam Wilson joins Work Is Third for a powerful and vulnerable conversation about healing, habits, father and mother wounds, breaking generational patterns, and learning to rest. Adam shares how childhood trauma shaped his early life, what pushed him out of tech and into coaching, how he helps men reconnect with their Inner King, and the importance of sleep, routines, rest, and perspective in healing. Together, we explore transitions, self-doubt, boundary-setting—especially with parents—and practical steps to break the cycles we inherited. This episode is a reminder that healing is possible, seasons change, and you always have the power to rewrite your story. 📚 Guest Info IG/Tiktok: @Theadamwilson_Facebook: Adam J Wilson 🎶Adam's contribution to The Joyful Rebellion Spotify Playlist: Miguel, Skywalker 📚 Resources Mentioned The Untethered Soul by Michael A.
