In honor of Pain Awareness Month, I wanted to share an episode of one of my favorite healthcare podcasts, “Knock Knock Hi with the Glaucomfleckens.” In this interview from last July, Will and Kristin Flanary (AKA Dr. and Lady Glaucomflecken) kindly invited me on to talk about my journey from ballet to anesthesiology to integrative pain care, and how hypermobility and chronic pain are often overlooked or misunderstood in both medicine and everyday life.
Listen to more episodes of “Knock Knock, Hi! with the Glaucomfleckens” wherever you get your podcasts, or watch on YouTube. https://www.human-content.com/kkh
