I’m curious – how often do you prioritize the health of your feet and finding the best shoes to support your lifestyle?

Well, if you’re like me… probably not a whole lot. That’s why I’ve invited on Steven Sashen – a Masters All American Sprinter and entrepreneur who says the key to healthy feet, better posture and improved athletic performance has to do with “natural movement”.

Steven introduces us to Xero Shoes – a shoe that mimics going barefoot, and why it outperforms other popular running shoes. He also shares tips for regaining your form and connecting to your roots to optimize your athletic performance.
