Workplaces are HARD to navigate as a hypermobile person!!

Support is often lacking (to say the least) and hypermobile workers suffer as a result. This episode focuses on practical, actionable steps you can take to try to make your workday at least a tiny bit easier.

Check out today’s episode and hear all about. . .

  • The history of ergonomics (it's a classic tale of Good vs Evil)

  • Why there’s NO SUCH THING AS GOOD POSTURE

  • What you might be forgetting with your water

  • How to reduce your risk of repetitive strain injury

and finally,

  • Why you might be able to walk for hours but struggle to stand for a short period of time
