The Movement Podcast: Recent Episodes
Terra McAulliffe
All movements start with a question. Does the story I've been told still make sense to me? Or will I write my own? Join Dr. Joseph & Terra McAulliffe as they question assumptions, talk through ideas, and explore what it means to create your life from the inside out.
Connection, not separation, is the key here. This conversation may be as old as time, but it is still coming up...still pulling at us. Joe & Terra talk about plants, resiliency, reductionism, societal systems, the germ theory, & the trouble with thinking we 'know' something. Mostly asking...what are the questions we are not asking? How do we move forward? How to we reconnect & create the world we WANT to see?
Join in as we grapple with topics we get real passionate about.
Referenced are the Aubrey Marcus podcast, specifically the episode with Heather Heying and Bret Weinstein who author the book, "A Hunter-Gatherers Guide to the 21st Century."
Joe & Terra are back together in podcast form to talk about the fundamental beliefs that help them stay grounded, calm & steady during unsteady times. Trusting in a bigger wisdom & innate intelligence is a big one...so where does one start? We start with Terrain theory.
Terra had so much fun talking with Justice Callahan (find her @essentially_momma) about her story, her son's story, motherhood & how it changes us, and the environmental factors at play in our health. Tune in to hear this savvy wife, mother, & businesswoman who is an awesome resource for moms seeking to transform their homes.
Welcome back to The Movement Podcast in 2022! We kick off this season with a conversation between Terra & Joe about one of their favorite sayings, what it means to them, and how it helps them through the ups & downs of life.
Things are opening back up in 2021, but what questions should we ask ourselves upon re-entry? Join Terra & Joe McAulliffe for this entertaining conversation discussing a book excerpt, how things feel as things get busy, perfectionism, homeschool, purpose, & choosing not to rule Earth. Please don't mind the rooster in the background, and, as always, thank you for being here. Book referenced: Overwhelemed: Work, Love, and Play When No One Has the Time by Brigid Schulte
Who are the experts on your life? Who are you giving your power away to? Terra & Joe discuss the recent trend of telling people they are incapable in understanding information for themselves and call BS. They affirm that you are capable of, not only understanding, but seeing the big picture and making decisions in all areas of your life. What is at the core? Examine your philosophy. Examine and take responsibility for your thoughts, traumas, & toxins (you'll understand more when you listen). You are more powerful than you know. Books mentioned: The Hidden Power by Thomas Troward, As a Man Thinketh by James Allen Article mention: Forbes; You Must Not 'Do Your Own Research' When it comes to Science by Ethan Siegel “Your only choice is whether you define your philosophy by a conscious, rational, disciplined process of thought and scrupulously logical deliberation — or let your subconscious accumulate a junk heap of unwarranted conclusions, false generalizations, undefined contradictions, undigested slogans, unidentified wishes, doubts and fears, thrown together by chance, but integrated by your subconscious into a kind of mongrel philosophy and fused into a single, solid weight: self-doubt.” -Ayn Rand
This interview with mother, spouse, gardener, writer & wellness coach, Heidi Barr, explores her recent book, 12 Tiny Things. What brought her and co-author, Ellie Roscher, to create this work? How do questions about "enough" play into this book? What are the practices that have impacted both Heidi and Terra the most from this book? This conversation between Terra and Heidi meanders through nature, gratitude, style, home & the many themes that help us craft an intentional life.

Nature is indivisible from Terra & Joe's lifestyle, and in this episode they discuss and ruminate some of the key roles Nature has played in their life, both past and present. In the philosophy of living ADIO, it all really starts with nature...and we have access to this gift every day.
Terra interviews long-time friend & mentor, Amy Lapp, as they talk about toxins, health, and the choices we can make to thrive in our health, not merely survive. This environmental issue is impacting us more than we know, but small, daily choices can make all the difference!
Food and nutrition is a big topic. With so much conflicting information, we quickly find ourselves in overwhelm and guilt no matter what we are eating. Joe & Terra share their nutrition journey and philosophy, with the hope of simplifying the topic and entertaining us along the way!
If health is truly the goal, then it's time to shift the conversation. Here we dive into the current narrative & why it's premise is 'lacking,' to be polite. We broadly talk about working WITH nature, not against it, and where we can be proactive and take ownership of our health & wellbeing. Let's not wait for someone 'out there' to save us. Health, after all, is an inside job.
I feel so honored to introduce my dear friend, Patty McLain, to you all as our first guest! I'm sure we could have talked for hours, but we did our best to stay focused on the topic of Joy...how it can feel radical and out of place in this time, yet how necessary it is, and how accessible if we know how to shift our stories.

So much has happened already in 2021, but one thing stays the same...our philosophy. We cover a lot of ground here: the changing health landscape and what we think is really happening, that Fear does not have to be the driving force of health decisions, why Haiti gives us pause, and how trying to outsmart nature typically leads to disaster...or at least more problems. Enjoy!
This year has been a year like no other! No one will argue that. But has it been a year of struggle or gifts? Everyone's situation probably had a little of both, but how does our attitude affect it? What choices do we have? And how do we move forward?
Is a gratitude practice just a nicety? Or is it more important to creating a more meaningful life? What does gratitude look like? With the holidays upon us, Terra shares some of her thoughts and readings that have been influencing her practice of gratitude.
It's hard to talk about anything and ignore the current climate of (mis)information overwhelm. Just trying to be informed feels like a monumental process. What do we lean on when we feel like this? How do we navigate this? And...let's talk about education while we're at it!
Many give credit to their morning routine. While we discuss some of our best habits, we also talk about why we need to hold them loosely.
This is where we lay the groundwork. What is ADIO? Why does it matter to us? Why may it matter to you? We talk about nature, connection, how our bodies ideally function, pandemics, fear, and miracles. You know, the usual. We're glad to have you here.
