Embracing a detour in my Houston Elite Athlete half marathon journey due to a muscle pull. 🏃♂️… Although setbacks happen, staying positive and focused on recovery. It's not about the pause, but how we continue the race despite challenges. 💪🏼💙💪🏼 . #Resilience #ComebackStronger #aslightdetour #pullsandstrains #suck #itsnotallsmoothsailing #icing #lifestyle #longevity #exerciseismedicine #purposefulmovement #foryourhealth #livehealthy #befit #starttoday #rjhfitperspectivellc #certified #personaltrainer #nutritioncoach #runwalkcoach #nutritionstrengthmovement #doallthree #everyweek #htx #heightshouston (No content on this site, regardless of date, should ever be used as a substitute for direct medical advice from your doctor or other qualified clinician.)

New year, new adventures—and new ways to accidentally trip, slip, or flip! 🤾♀️🤸♀️ Let’s keep the playground and sports field fun (and injury-free). Here are 5 ways to stay safe this school year: 1. Use Equipment Like a Pro ✅: No, the slide isn’t a climbing wall, and the monkey bars aren’t for extreme stunts. Always use playground equipment as intended. 2. Swings Aren’t Catapults ⚠️: As tempting as it is, launching yourself off swings can lead to some serious injuries. 3. Eyes Up, Stay Alert 👀🚨: Watch out for rogue jump ropes, soccer balls, and, well, other kids! 4. No WWE Moves on the Playground 🚫: Play nice. No pushing or shoving. 5. Suit Up 🏈: Sports gear isn't just for style points. Helmets, pads, and shin guards = real MVPs. Got a sprain or pain?

What I learned about healthcare consumer engagement from the Harlem Globetrotters 🏀: First a bit of context: over the weekend, the family and I watched the Harlem Globetrotters put on a show in Sydney. They put on a great event, and because I’m a healthtech nerd, the whole thing made me realise there is a lot we could learn from the way they have reinvented basketball, and apply it to healthcare consumer engagement. …ok so hear me out. 😅 I have shared my thoughts on this in detail over in the Talking HealthTech community, and I break down the lessons including for healthcare, including: 🤹 Engagement Through Entertainment 📊Simplifying Complex Topics 💪Inspiring Through Representation 🙏🏻Building Community and Loyalty 💰Innovative Business Models If we are going to fix healthcare, we need to think differently. The challenge is out there to anyone creating solutions in health: 🤔 how else can you turn passive users into active participants in their health journeys? If we can do it even a few percent better than we do now, it will absolutely result in better patient outcomes, a more efficient healthcare system, and we might even have a bit of fun in the process. 🙏🏻 THT+ Members can dive into the full article and explore these insights in our online community here: https://lnkd.in/gwvVQxq8
