EP434: Bruce Fertman - Walking For Wellness: Your Path To Great Health

“Walking is our common denominator in terms of movement,
almost all of us walk. It’s a really great place to begin, to
teach people about movement.”
-Bruce Fertman


Our role as bookkeepers gives us unique insight into the health
of a business. We can make sense of the figures in a way our
clients would struggle to alone. We find the problems and
successes and help our clients to make changes to their business
that improve profitability and longevity. 


Yet despite this being a critical function of what we do for
others, we don’t invest nearly the same amount of time and effort
into our own health. We ignore the telltale signs and symptoms in
our own bodies in the same way our clients frustrate us by
ignoring the areas of challenge in their businesses. 


Sitting at our desks may feel productive, but we often spend
hours sitting, with bad posture trying to generate the same
productivity, creativity and insight we could gain from a
12-minute walk. 


Bruce Fertman, co-author of Walking Well and lifetime movement
specialist, is this episode’s featured guest. He has spent his
life helping others find their path to wellness through movement.
In this episode, he speaks powerfully about the need to get the
basics right, how small changes can make huge differences, and
