On this episode of Flex With Purpose, Schalee sits down with Dr. Kyle Thompson, a rehab specialist and chiropractor whose blend of humility, discipline, mentorship, and relentless learning shapes every life he touches. Kyle shares some of his most meaningful wins—not the kind measured in accolades, but in human transformation: patients walking again, hiking mountains, playing with their children without pain, and reclaiming the ability to live fully. His stories reveal a man who sees healing as a partnership, not a performance, and who believes humility is the only pathway to real expertise.

Through their conversation, Kyle opens up about his daily rhythms of practice, entrepreneurship, continuing education, and community involvement. He describes the “dance” of his life—balancing business demands with clinical mastery, investing deeply in his patients while also mentoring students at Parker University, and constantly seeking wisdom from those ahead of him. His approach is simple but profound: confidence isn’t pretending you know everything; it’s being willing to learn, adapt, and change when new information comes.

Kyle also shares how mentorship, grief, failure, and real human stories shaped his understanding of humility. From walking alongside a terminally ill patient whose final lesson changed the trajectory of his life, to navigating the early years of private practice, to resisting the ego trap that comes with five degrees at age 32—Kyle demonstrates how honesty, self-awareness, and action create impact far greater than knowledge alone.

This episode is a powerful invitation to anyone feeling anxious, stuck, or overwhelmed by growth: take the next step. As Kyle reminds us, action is the antidote to anxiety. Whether you're leading, healing, learning, or starting something new, this conversation will challenge you to show up with courage, humility, teachability, and purpose.
