The Body Knows: Movement, Burnout & the Inner Coach with Physio Kate Powell

What if your body was trying to tell you something—and movement was the way to listen?

In this energizing and deeply grounding episode of CAMP Conversations, Dayna Haig-Conway sits down with physiotherapist and movement specialist Kate Powell to talk about physical resilience for frontline professionals. From competitive gymnastics to postnatal healing and professional burnout, Kate shares her story of redefining strength through movement, alignment, and listening to the body’s signals.

Whether you're a teacher, youth worker, healthcare provider, or parent, this conversation offers immediately usable strategies for integrating movement into your day—not as another “to-do,” but as a way to reclaim energy, presence, and purpose.

We talk about:

  • Why so many caregivers “go small” in their bodies—and how to go big again

  • Micro-movements that reset your nervous system

  • Using your body to process emotions and prevent burnout

  • Building your own “inner coach” to support sustainable caregiving

This is one you’ll want to bookmark, share, and maybe even stand up for.
