About Sink and Swim

Sink into your truth, rewrite the story you were born to live, swim in your Soul’s purpose. Sink AND Swim is a podcast for high-achieving Luminaires ready to break free from the “sink or swim” societal narratives that dictate the “right” ways to live, work, parent, and be. By paddling furiously to stay afloat and conform to the corset of "sink or swim" narratives, we are pulled away from our deepest and most authentic stories. This show illuminates the stories of Luminaires - gifted, talented, multidimensional, soul-led, and neurospicy people who have gone on the deep alchemical journey from telling a story of sink OR swim to sink AND swim. Listeners are invited to “sink” into your raw, unfiltered stories, uncovering the gifts embedded in the parts of you that you were conditioned to hide and conform. There, you'll find the buoyancy to “swim” - fully embracing the freedom to be who you are, live out your soul's purpose, and attract people and opportunities that honor you in your full expansiveness.

   "Figure out what you like" - What Julie Laracy, a semi-retired PT at 62, would tell her younger self and every burned out clinician

   What would a PT with 35 years behind her tell you about the career you're in right now? Julie Laracy is 62, recently semi-retired, and busier than she's ever been. In this episode, she looks back on a physical therapy career that took her through pediatrics, wound care, school-based PT, nursing homes, outpatient private practice, her own in-home Parkinson's practice, and an acute care job she never expected to love. She talks honestly about the moments the profession started to lose its magic...

   Physical Therapists: Vision 2020 gave you a doctorate. It also gave you a chip on your shoulder.

   If you went to physical therapy school between 2000 and 2020, you were trained under Vision 2020 — a genuinely good vision that also quietly taught you that you'd never be enough as you are. In this Notes from a Fart Walk episode, recorded raw on an actual dog walk, Julie names the chip on the shoulder that almost every PT is carrying: the reason you keep collecting certifications, the reason you're looking at PA and NP programs at 41, and the reason so many women who pivot out of clinical wo...
