My Understanding Podcast
Welcome to My Understanding!
This is a space where people can learn more about how health and fitness affect us individually - because there is no 'one-size-fits-all' answer. Join us to hear guests who are specialists in their fields: doctors, trainers, physical therapists, nutrition coaches, and more as we dive into real conversations that will inspire, challenge, and support your health and wellness journey. Whether you are starting out, a fitness professional, or someone who just wants to dare to do better, we hope this becomes a place where you can come and ask questions, challenge ideas, feel supported, and learn along the way. Join us on this learning journey and challenge your understanding!
Hosted by me, Jackson McClain! I am a certified personal trainer, life long learner, and wellness enthusiast. I will be presenting my current understanding and research on a variety of topics and my hope is to be challenged, to learn, and ultimately to become a healthier human in the process.
