Welcome to Functionally Speaking— the podcast where two clinicians share one brain cell and way too many opinions. We’re here for the nuance, the hot takes, the facts your certification skipped over, and the occasional spiral into chaos. If you’re a health coach, practitioner, or clinician who’s slightly functional (just like our mitochondria and our recording process), you’re in the right place. We’re not here to sugarcoat the science or pretend there’s one right way to do this work — we’re ...

Is it more transparent—or more strategic—to share your prices publicly?

Are fitness trackers helping your health or quietly harming it?

We share our own experiences with de…

Overhead power lines transmit the vital electricity that our homes and businesses, schools and hospitals need. They’re exposed to all the elements - storms, winds, hail and snow - so someone needs to make sure they can withstand whatever is thrown at them. Thankfully there’s a team of people who do this 24/7 – lineworkers. The UK’s transmission net…

Connecting more clean energy projects to the electricity grid is one of the most critical issues in driving the clean energy transition. Legacy ‘first come first served’ approaches, along with a rapid growth in the number of projects looking to connect, have led to stalled, or "zombie" projects waiting in the queue to be connected - so what’s being…

In 1990, in an episode of The Simpsons, the family are sitting down for Thanksgiving dinner. Homer gives thanks to nuclear power: ‘the cleanest, safest energy source there is’. He then adds, ‘except for solar - which is just a pipe dream.’ Despite the irony in the statement, over 30 years later it’s safe to say solar is very much not just a pipe dr…
