In this episode, I’m speaking with Dr. Sean Drake, a highly accomplished chiropractor with a fascinating career and life. His work now focuses on helping athletes, but don’t stop reading just because you’re not a high-level athlete. The beauty of Dr. Drake’s strategies is that they apply to everyone.

If you have a body, you’re an athlete.” At the core of his approach is that modulating the nervous system holds the key to unlo...
