The Power of No with Cheryl Ilov S01 EPS 418

In the latest episode of the Empowerography Podcast, my guest is Cheryl Ilov. Cheryl Ilov is an author, speaker, physical therapist, martial artist, dancer, and former chronic pain patient. She published the award-winning and best-selling book, “Forever Fit and Flexible: Feeling Fabulous at Fifty and Beyond" in 2016. With over 20 years’ experience as a physical therapist in private practice, she has helped hundreds of clients recover from pain and injuries by integrating the science of physical therapy with the art of movement. But the most compelling part of her story is the path that brought her to a journey of health, healing, and self-discovery after being railroaded by a devastating injury and subsequent chronic pain syndrome when she was in her mid-thirties.  She earned her masters’ degree in physical therapy and graduated with honors in 1996, and opened her own alternative physical therapy practice in 1999. She is passionate about helping people move better, feel better, look better, and empower them to understand their own bodies through movement and awareness. She published her book to share her message and techniques with a larger audience. She believes that everyone can be healthy, active, fit, and vibrant at every stage of life, no matter what other “experts” might say. She loves busting the myths of aging, stopping Father Time in his tracks, and proving the nay-sayers wrong. In this episode we discuss martial arts, ballet, becoming a ninja, the power of saying NO and burnout.
