Episodes

  1. Why Does Pain Persist Even After the Body Has Healed?

    Why does pain sometimes continue long after an injury has healed? We often assume that pain is a direct reflection of tissue damage. But pain is much more complex than that. In this episode of Aligned with Dr. Nicole Addison, we explore how the nervous system contributes to persistent pain, even...

  2. The Most Important Thing About Being Alive That We Keep Forgetting

    What if some of the most important lessons about being alive are also the ones we tend to overlook? Inspired by a question submitted by someone in our community, this episode explores human behaviour, happiness, relationships, personal growth, and the things we often take for granted. Why do we...

  3. Why Does Your Hip Hike When You Walk?

    Ever notice that one hip seems to rise higher than the other when you walk, run, or stand on one leg? A hip hike isn't necessarily a “tight hip” problem. The movement of your pelvis is influenced by the entire kinetic chain — from the way your foot and ankle interact with the ground, to the...

  4. The Invisible Side of Healing: When Recovery Challenges More Than Your Body

    With Dr. Nicole Addison we discuss how when we think about healing, we often focus on the physical changes - getting stronger, recovering movement, returning to normal. But what about the emotional journey? The frustration. The fear. The loss of independence. The feeling of not being yourself...

  5. The Prison of Fear: How Avoidance Rewires Your Brain and Limits Your Life

    Fear isn't just an emotion—it's a survival system that has shaped human behavior for thousands of years. But what happens when the very system designed to protect us begins limiting our lives? In this episode of Aligned With Dr. Nicole Addison, we explore the fascinating psychology and…

  6. If Pain Is Created By The Brain… Why Does It Feel So Physical?

    Most people think pain is a direct signal of damage in the body—but the reality is far more complex and far more empowering. In this episode, we break down why pain can feel so intensely physical, localized, and real, even when it is not a simple reflection of tissue injury. We explore how the...

  7. Pain Requires the Brain: The Science That Changes Everything You Thought You Knew

    What if pain isn’t actually coming from your body the way you’ve been taught? In this episode, we break down one of the most important concepts in modern pain science: pain requires the brain. Your tissues send signals, yes—but those signals are not pain. They are information. Pain is what your...

  8. Walking Is a Scam: How Your Big Toe, Butt, and Spine Secretly Run Your Life

    Most people think walking is simple. It’s not. It’s a full-body coordination masterpiece… and your low back is tired of taking the blame when it goes wrong. In this episode, we break down what’s actually happening every time you take a step — from your arch acting like a shock absorber, to your...

  9. If You’re Struggling, Listen Closely

    If you’re feeling anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, or deeply alone — this episode is for you. This isn’t a pep talk. It’s a reminder that you are not broken, not weak, and not failing at life. It’s a gentle, honest conversation for anyone whose nervous system feels stuck in survival mode, whose...

  10. You’re Not Lazy, You’re Just Tired of Surviving

    If you’ve ever wondered why motivation feels harder than it “should,” why rest never feels like enough, or why your body seems resistant no matter how much effort you put in — this episode is for you. In You’re Not Lazy, You’re Just Tired of Surviving, we explore what really happens when a…

    If you’ve ever said “it’s fine” while slowly lowering yourself onto the floor… this episode is for you. In this episode, we talk about the strange, funny, very human ways people adapt when pain becomes part of daily life. From normalizing things that would alarm our past selves, to navigating…

  12. You’re Doing Everything Right - Here’s Why It Still Hurts

    You’re stretching. You’re exercising. You’re showing up. So why does it still hurt? In this episode, we unpack one of the most frustrating experiences in healing: doing all the “right” things and still feeling stuck. We explore why pain can persist without damage, how load and capacity actually...

  13. When Healing Becomes Active Again

    Healing isn’t always a quiet, passive process - sometimes it’s active, messy, and full of choices. In this episode, we explore what it really means to step back into life after pain, injury, or burnout. From rebuilding strength to retraining your nervous system, we dive into practical strategies...

  14. You’re Not Broken - Your Body Is Just Asking for Something Different

    Pain, stiffness, and fatigue can quietly make people feel like their body is failing them - or that getting older automatically means feeling worse. In this episode, we gently challenge that belief. You’ll learn why pain doesn’t always mean damage, how the nervous system uses discomfort as...

  15. Move Better at Any Age: Science-Backed Mobility Tips for Seniors

    What if getting older didn’t have to mean getting weaker, stiffer, or less confident in your body? In this episode, Dr. Addison breaks down what high-quality research really shows about mobility and aging - and why strength, balance, and simple daily movement can dramatically improve…

  17. Why the Low Back Isn’t the Problem (Part 1)

    Low back pain isn’t random - and it’s rarely just a “back” problem. In this episode, we break down the mechanics of the pelvis, sacrum, and SI joints through the lens of functional anatomy. Instead of chasing symptoms, we zoom out to understand how the pelvis actually transfers load, creates...

  18. From Heel to Hip: Rethinking Plantar Fasciitis Through Whole-Chain Mechanics

    Plantar fasciitis isn’t just a foot problem — it’s a whole-body story.

We’ll explore how the lower chain works together to create healthy pronation and...

  19. Strong at the Core: The Truth About Your Pelvic Floor

    When you think of the pelvic floor, you might picture something static or purely related to stability—but it’s so much more than that.

  20. Rush of Life: Finding Progress in the Chaos

    Life moves fast—and sometimes it feels like we’re just trying to keep up. In this episode of Aligned, we dive into the truth about momentum, why small steps matter more than big leaps, and how to slow down enough to see the progress you’re actually making. If you’ve been feeling stuck…
