Season 4, Episode 414: Erin Burch – Physical Therapist and Anti-Aging Expert

Today’s guest is Erin Burch, PT. Erin Burch is deeply committed to creating possibilities for midlife women to live into their vitality, juiciness and power, re-scripting and reinventing the second half of their lives into something that blows their mind!

Erin Burch

Erin has been involved in health and wellness for 4 decades, first as a physical therapist, then living an immersive lifestyle in a yoga ashram, and now as the founder of the premier Bodywork System: The Burch Method.  Her unique system for reversing pain and aging was born out of her own “Near-Aging” experience, where her body was imprisoned by scar tissue, making her feel “old” … at 35!

She is now 61, and is actively aging in reverse, and is passionate about taking other women with her.

Season 2, Episode 262: JJ Flizanes – Author, Podcast Host, and Empowerment Strategist

Today’s guest is JJ Flizanes.
