Is modern footwear destroying our health?

Most of us never think about our feet. But what if weak arches, bad posture, and even chronic pain are linked to the shoes we wear every day? Could the key to fixing energy, inflammation, and resilience start from the ground up?

In this conversation, I’m joined by Joshua J. Holland—holistic trainer, health coach, and author of The Awareness Shift—to uncover the science of barefoot living, grounding, and the 5 pillars of health that can transform your body.

This isn’t just theory. Joshua blends decades of functional movement training, ancestral living, and modern science to reveal how reconnecting with the earth can restore strength, balance, and vitality.

Together, we discuss:
❏ Why modern shoes are weakening us

❏ The hidden science of grounding (earthing) and inflammation

❏ The safe way to transition into barefoot shoes

❏ Joshua’s 5 pillars of optimal health

❏ How to reconnect with nature in a modern world
