Dear Diary, in episode 99, We sit down with neurologist and epileptologist Dr. Jessica Lowe (Dr. Brain Barbie) to unpack one of the most misunderstood conditions in healthcare. What started as a conversation about migraines turned into an eye-opening discussion on brain health, invisible illnesses, migraine myths, and the overwhelming amount of misinformation online. Jessica breaks down the science behind migraines, explains why they're so much more than "just a headache," and shares practical, evidence-based ways to better understand and care for your brain.

Dear Diary, In episode 86, Mel & Al break down what 3 years of Travel Physical Therapy has actually looked like from dream locations to contracts they couldn’t wait to leave. They rank their best and worst experiences, from clinic vibes and pay to what really makes a job worth it beyond the surface. They also get into what people don’t talk about: how much your manager, team, and work environment can completely shape your experience. Because it’s not just about where you go. It’s about how it actually feels day to day.⁠Book your Tax Home Consultation today!⁠Nermina Culesker CPA who specializes in Travel Healthcare!Let her know “The Physio Diaries” referred you!⁠Sign up for our Newsletter!⁠⁠Ask us questions⁠⁠Find travel jobs⁠⁠⁠The Physio Diaries IG⁠⁠

Dear Diary, In episode 85 of The Physio Diaries podcast, Mel & Al are back in their break room talks era. Chaotic, tired, and unfiltered. From missing alarms before a full patient day to questioning if travel PT is still worth it, they get real about the exhaustion, constant moving, and what this lifestyle actually feels like behind the scenes. They also get into their “icks of the month” such as red eye flights, 40-hour work weeks, and healthcare professionals tearing each other down online. The kind of conversations that feel like decompressing with your best friend after a long shift.

Dear Diary, In Episode 84, we’re joined by Dr. Haramol Gill MD, Emergency Medicine Physician & Love is Blind season 10 cast member. What happens when an ER doctor who saves lives by day ends up on one of Netflix's biggest reality shows? You get one of the most refreshingly honest conversations we've ever had on The Physio Diaries. He cries at work, ignores patient quotas, gets real about rebelling against the healthcare system. He admits that he left Love Is Blind early because getting on one knee actually means something to him. Haramol flipped the script and started asking US the hard questions and ended up delivering the most real, unscripted therapy session we didn't know we needed.If you've ever felt like you're constantly chasing the next thing, struggling to feel like enough, or just tired of playing by rules that weren't made for you, this episode is going to hit different.Dr. Haramol Gill MD IG⁠Sign up for our Newsletter!⁠⁠Ask us questions⁠⁠Find travel jobs⁠⁠⁠The Physio Diaries IG⁠⁠

Dear Diary, In episode 83 of The Physio Diaries podcast, Mel& Al talk about the 10 vital signs that you never think about. We see hundreds of patients walk through our clinic doors and we can tell a lot about someone's health before they even sit down. They are spilling everything: the 10 functional markers they actually use to assess health that go way beyond your standard blood pressure and heart rate check. From grip strength (spoiler: low grip strength is linked to a 67% higher risk of early death) to whether you can get up off the floor without grabbing the furniture, these are the real-world tests that predict longevity, mobility, and quality of life at every age.
