In this episode of Golden Life Podcast, we highlight two more women making strides in their field. Physical Therapists Rachel Botkin and Dr. Nekita Sullivan give us an idea of what Physical Therapists do. We discuss the challenges PTs face in normal times and during a pandemic. We also discuss the importance of movement to ones overall health and we dispel the myths that are often associated with seeing a PT. For example, the "no pain/no gain" myth. We explain just what that is and so much more. Have a listen.

" The Woman Behind It" - A candid conversation with Jasilika Davidson (Assisted Living Locators of West Columbus), Miriam Bogard (Assisted Living Locators of East Columbus), and Angela Olea, Founder and CEO of Assisted Living Locators.
As a registered nurse, Angela Olea dealt with many families facing the uncertainty of how to care for aging parents, and trying to figure out what the next step should be. She was frustrated by the lack of resources to help guide caregivers – and seniors themselves – on making the right living and care decisions. She saw firsthand how difficult and emotional these decisions could be, and she knew that the solution was much more complicated than just moving Mom into the nearest facility.
