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 position and movement of your femur, hip, pelvis, and even the muscles controlling the trunk.
In this episode, we’ll break down the biomechanics behind a hip hike and explore how the ankle, femur, hip, pelvis, and surrounding muscles all interact to influence what you see at the pelvis.
We’ll also talk about why simply stretching the hip or strengthening one muscle isn't always the answer, and how addressing the underlying movement strategy can help you improve the way your body moves.
Because when it comes to biomechanics, the place you see the movement isn't always the place where the problem starts.
🎧 Listen in to understand your hip hike from the ground up.

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 anymore.
This episode explores the mental and emotional side of recovery and reminds anyone going through a difficult season that healing is not always linear. Whether you’re recovering physically, emotionally, or mentally, you are not alone.
Your progress may be slower than you hoped, but that does not mean it isn’t happening.

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 neuroscience behind fear avoidance behavior. You'll discover how the brain's alarm system responds to uncertainty, why avoidance feels so rewarding in the moment, and how repeatedly avoiding discomfort can slowly rewire the brain and shrink your world without you even realizing it.
We'll dive into:
• Why your brain is designed to overestimate danger
• The role of the amygdala in fear and survival
• How fear memories are created and strengthened
• Why uncertainty can feel more stressful than failure itself
• How avoidance reinforces fear and limits growth
• The connection between fear, confidence, and neuroplasticity
• Why courage is not the absence of fear—but action despite it
• How fear can quietly shape your health, relationships, career, and identity
Whether you're avoiding movement after an injury, hesitating to pursue a dream, struggling with anxiety, or simply feeling stuck in life, this episode will help you understand what's happening inside your brain—and how to begin breaking free.
Because fear may be part of being human.
But it doesn't have to be the force that determines your future.
The goal isn't to eliminate fear.
The goal is to become stronger than the stories fear tells you.
