Off-Script Physio Podcast

Welcome to Off-Script Physio | Launching January 2026

Off-Script Physio is a podcast that goes beyond the clinical cases and technical skills—it's about the real stories, challenges, and triumphs that shape us as physiotherapists.

Co-hosted by Karen ‘Kaz’ Finnin and Ben ‘Bowie’ Bowtell, this show opens up honest conversations about the human side of our profession. We talk about the moments that don’t always make it into conference presentations: imposter syndrome, feeling stuck, making mistakes, and the constant balancing act between caring for others and building your own career.

Each episode, we invite clinicians from all walks of physio life to share their journeys, the tough calls, and the questions we all have but rarely discuss. Whether you’re an aspiring physio or a seasoned pro, Off-Script Physio is a space to listen, reflect, and connect with the realities of our field.

Meet the Hosts:

Bowie is an Advanced Scope Physiotherapist and PhD candidate, with a career spanning Cirque du Soleil, Defence, Paralympic sport, and beyond.

Kaz is a senior musculoskeletal physiotherapist with over 20 years of experience and an MBA in Innovation and Leadership. She’s held roles such as Head of Performance Medicine at Cirque du Soleil and now consults in healthcare leadership.

Together, we keep things relaxed, genuine, and focused on the stories that matter.
