Welcome to Sole Wellness.
I’m your Host Rachael Ferguson, award winning entrepreneur, CEO & Founder of SynxBody, sports podiatrist and you may have heard my voice before on Shark Tank where Andrew Banks invested in my company.
Working as a podiatrist I often saw people when it was too late, or I had clients that would be suffering for years and have spent thousands of dollars treating their back or neck or other parts of their body only to find out it was their feet causing the issue in the first place.
Our entire body is connected and everything right down to the food you eat, the thoughts you think and of course the shoes you wear can have a ripple effect on how you feel and your quality of life.
I’m going to be talking to experts in their field to understand what is actually happening to our bodies and how YOU can take action now so that you can take control of your own body and choose to walk a new path (yes there are going to be lots of podiatry puns)

Becoming a Carer Overnight: How to Navigate Life When a Parent Gets Sick with Author Casey Beros
Caring for a parent or family member isn’t something any of us ever feel prepared for.
One phone call and change everything, and suddenly you’re making decisions you’ve never expected to have to make… While still trying to keep your own life together.
And yet, there’s not a lot of information for carers.
Until now.
In today’s episode, I’m joined by Casey Beros, a health journalist and author of the newly released Next of Kin: What to Expect When You’re Expecting to Care for Someone You Love to talk about exactly that.
So if you’ve found yourself in the position of caring for your parents, your family or your children, or just want to learn more about how to prepare for the future… Then this episode is for you.
You’ll learn:
1:40 - The phone call that changed everything… What happened when Casey’s dad was diagnosed with mesothelioma
06:09 - What the healthcare system really looks like from the inside
9:17 - Why carers often know more about the patient than the doctor
14:20 - Four questions to ask the doctors
17:08 - Should you be recording your appointments?
18:05 - The question that always gets doctors to give their personal opinions
23:31 - When the child becomes the parent: how to navigate becoming shift
27:00 - Why caring duties are never divided equally in families
30:58 - How to avoid resentment when siblings don’t show up
34:50 - Casey’s 5 minute daily reset that every carer can use
43:43 - Why being present at the end of life changes everything
45:19 - How to stay connected with Casey + where to find her book
… and SO much more.
