  #102 Are We Raising Capable Kids?

  Sep 20, 202626 min

  In this episode of Move.Talk.Thrive, Lizzy flies solo to explore a question that’s been shaping her work as a clinician and mum: we talk a lot about raising resilient kids, but are we giving them enough opportunities to become capable? Through everyday examples from bedtime routines to collecting an order at the local coffee shop, Lizzy reflects on how easily helping can turn into doing. She explores how we can support children to understand their bodies, recognise what they need, and build the skills and confidence to think, “I can have a go at this.” Lizzy also discusses the relationship between movement skills, confidence and participation, and why therapy needs to make a difference beyond the clinic. From navigating friendships to joining playground games and getting ready for school, capability grows through meaningful opportunities to practise—with support that gradually changes as children’s skills develop.

  #101 What Emily Built During Maternity Leave

  Aug 30, 202631 min

  What started as watching AI videos during late-night feeds became a complete overhaul of the Successful Speechie Academy. In this solo episode of the Move.Talk.Thrive Podcast , Emily shares how following her curiosity during maternity leave led her to rethink the way she organised and presented her preschool language resources. With existing systems, support from her team and a few focused work blocks each week, she explains how AI helped her bring the rebuild together in around three months. But her biggest takeaway goes beyond AI: confidence grows when you put what you learn into practice. From testing ideas before introducing them to a team to working through the messy middle of learning something new, this episode explores implementation, leadership and why your next step might be another repetition, not another course.

  #100 We’re back together! Biz, babies and 100 episodes

  Aug 16, 202634 min

  In this special 100th episode of the Move.Talk.Thrive Podcast , Emily returns to the mic and catches up with Lizzy on motherhood, business, overwhelm, resilience and everything in between. Almost six months after welcoming her third baby, Emily reflects on navigating a season of major transition and the mindset shift that helped her feel more empowered: “This was my choice.” Lizzy and Emily also look back on 100 episodes of honest conversations about the human side of allied health, from leadership and personal development to fear of failure, business and life beyond the clinic. Whether you’re navigating a big transition, motherhood, leadership or simply a season that feels especially full, this episode is a reminder that overwhelm doesn’t always mean something is wrong; sometimes, it means you’re growing. Stay Connected with Move.Talk.Thrive If you’ve been listening along the way, thank you for helping us reach 100 episodes!

  #99 Using Movement to Support Regulation

  Jun 21, 202628 min

  How does movement support the sensory system, and why does this matter when working with children? In this solo episode of Move.Talk.Thrive, Lizzy explores the connection between sensory input, motor output, regulation and participation from an exercise physiology perspective. She explains why children who crash, jump, avoid movement, struggle to sit still, become dysregulated or refuse activities may not be showing “bad behaviour”, they may be communicating sensory and nervous system needs. Lizzy also breaks down the vestibular, proprioceptive and interoceptive systems, and shares practical ways to adapt therapy environments in clinics, gyms, schools, early learning centres and homes. From calming movement and heavy work to becoming a sensory detective in the first few minutes of a session, this episode is a helpful listen for paediatric clinicians, parents and educators who want to better understand how movement can support regulation and participation. Stay Connected with Move.Talk.Thrive If this episode resonated with you, share it with a parent, clinician, educator or allied health professional who supports children with movement, regulation, sensory needs or participation challenges.
