Why did we choose our profession? How does our character impact our ability to succeed professionally? What are the actionable steps we can take to better reflect on our character and what our given purpose is in life? These things, and much more, are part of a thought provoking conversation we had with Jackson Taylor, who is a Physical Therapist in Hartford, CT. Jackson has been a part of ClinicalAthlete since the beginning, and has taken an interest in the philosophical domains. We use that lens to discuss existential questions that we’ve all probably had. This is part one of a two part series.

It’s less common in the performing arts sphere to think about dancers and musicians as “athletes”; but physiology is physiology. We welcome onto the show, Jacob Manley, to discuss the nuance and special considerations when managing these athletes. This is a topic that has not been discussed on the podcast before, and Jacob brought some really interesting insight. In addition to being a Physical Therapist, Jacob is a graduate of Shenandoah University’s Performing Arts Medicine program where he studied to specialize in rehabilitation for dancers and musicians.
