Modern shoes might be stylish, but are they destroying your feet?


In this episode of The True Form Podcast, I’m joined by Jamie and Faye, founders of BPRIMAL, a barefoot footwear company dedicated to helping people restore natural movement, foot strength, and whole-body alignment—starting from the ground up.


We break down the surprising impact that conventional shoes have on your body, what “foot-shaped shoes” actually mean, and how to transition safely into barefoot-style footwear. Also joining us is Mick, a passionate advocate for natural movement, who shares his own powerful journey of foot health transformation.


Whether you're constantly in pain, curious about barefoot shoes, or just want to feel better every time you walk—this conversation will change the way you think about footwear forever.


🎧 In this episode:

– Why most shoes do more harm than good
