72-Chris Goodwill, the magic of craniosacral therapy

January 21, 2021 by Kendall Johnson in Podcast

In today’s episode I interview craniosacral, myofascial worker, physical therapist, AKA the healing wizard Christina Goodwill. 

 Have you ever met someone who when they touch you, you wonder if their hands are dipped in an angel’s tears? Someone who reads into your soul, feels your energy, embraces your existence, and doesn’t judge any part of you.

Meet Christina Goodwill. 

Chris combines her deep knowledge of anatomy with her gifted intuitive abilities in such a unique way that always leaves me so grateful to work with her. 

In this episode, we talk about:

-why athletes can get the same injury, but some take longer to heal than others 

-what kind of athletes are the hardest to treat

-recommendations for athletes to stay healthy 

-how she sees colors, images, and past lives when working with patients, and how that helps her communicate with their body

-why gentle touch can be more effective than firm touch like sports massage 

-the time I was told I had an ulcer, and I walked away from one session with Chris completely pain free 

-her belief that most injuries have an energetic component that needs to be addresses in order to fully heal

And more!

68-sleep hacks / how I healed my insomnia

July 28, 2020 by Kendall Johnson in Podcast


Do you struggle with sleep? If so, you know it’s kinda like taking off a sweatshirt when you’re sweaty AF and your arm gets stuck in the sleeve and you kinda wanna die, but the harder you try to fix it  the worse it gets. 

You need sleep not only to maximize performance, but also to be able to function throughout your day. And in my case, to be a tolerable human being to be around. 

During the onset of my concussion,  I struggled with years of severe insomnia. I tried counting sheep, hippos, penguins, pigeons…all the animals, but it didn’t do squat. I have attempted everything under the sun and the moon to restore my circadian rhythms and finally, I can say I sleep pretty dang consistently (I still have some rough nights, but I’m very pleased with my progress). Sleep is something I will never ever take for granted again.


In this episode, I talk about:

  • the hacks that have had the greatest impact on my sleep

  • the ONE thing that was a game changer for my shuteye

  • my go-to evening routine that gets me feelin’ zen

  • what I do when I have nights where I struggle to sleep 

  • how to function during the day when you aren’t well rested

And more!


I hope some of the methods provide you with a little bit of relief. 

Sweeeeet dreams!

p.s do you have any remedies that aid with your sleep? Please share!
