As content becomes ever more important for searchability and keeping readers on one’s site, I’m happy to say that I’ve gotten another venue for writing for one of my clients. It is a challenge, to be sure — I’ll now be writing about business topics related to physical therapy, while Read more…
Full disclosure: I am married to a tennis-playing nut. He went to state in high school and continues to win local tournaments (in his age bracket, but still). So I am highly aware of the do’s and don’ts of the sport, even though I’ve rarely put a sneakered foot on Read more…
So I’ll admit, as a woman who’s shorter than your average height, I know how bad heels are for me, and I will probably continue to wear them for years yet. (I have to be able to look people in the eye. Or at least closer to it.) But some Read more…

As one who didn’t fully understand the importance of physical therapists until after I’d been in the care of one for several months, I am all for reminding people of their extensive musculoskeletal knowledge and their key role in rehabilitation post-injury/surgery, as well as their ability to work with athletes Read more…
While I sometimes struggle for general topics about my sorority at Mizzou, I knew exactly who I wanted to profile when Homecoming season approached this year. Kellye and I were sisters in the truest sense, confiding our deepest problems and working together on Tour Team, the student recruitment group on Read more…
I’ve posted our fall newsletter on mizzounyc.com, and as part of the newsletter, I got to speak with a current student at the University of Missouri. A native New Yorker, Danielle had been awarded a scholarship from our local alumni chapter and had left NY behind for the wilds of Read more…
