In today’s episode, I’m thrilled to be joined by Molly Cupka, the president of Up ENDing Parkinson’s—an inspiring program that’s redefining what’s possible for individuals living with Parkinson’s disease. Through the power of rock climbing, Up ENDing Parkinson’s is helping people challenge their limits, build strength and confidence, and connect with others in a supportive, uplifting environment.

Rock climbing might not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think of Parkinson’s rehab—but as you’ll hear today, it can be a transformative tool for improving balance, coordination, mobility, and even mental well-being.

Molly brings incredible passion, purpose, and personal experience to her work. Today, she’ll share the story behind the program, how it’s grown, and why climbing is such a powerful outlet for people with Parkinson’s.

So whether you're a healthcare provider, someone affected by Parkinson's, or just curious about the healing power of movement—you’re going to want to tune in for this one.
