Hi there. My name's Brant Hulsebus, and I'm a chiropractor from Rockford, Illinois. I'm also the Illinois ra, the regional assemblymen. You see each state and regions divided up into different parts, and when you elect somebody to represent you, I'm the Illinois ra. I'm also honored to be the vice chair of all the RAs. So we have a chairman of the RAs and a vice Chair of the RAs. But today you're listening to me, not because of this, but because I was tasked by some members of the board to start the ICA Chiro cast. What's the ICA Chiro cast? It's the ICA newest podcast. And I had the ability to get this recording, get it started. So I've been asked to launch it and it's been a lot of fun. I wanted to come on tonight and tell you a little bit about what we're up to, what we are, maybe what we're not. Maybe it's something you think that we are that we're not. Some of you might recognize me'cause I've already been doing an ICA podcast, but I've been doing it for the ICA Sports and Fitness Council. So that's been a fun PO podcast that we've been doing for over a year and a half now. There been a lot of chiropractors and people involved in chiropractic and the sports and fitness world. However, this podcast that you're listening to now is a different podcast. We're gonna be meeting leaders of the ICA people within the ICA doing awesome things. We have several councils in the ICA doing different things too. So I'm gonna be sitting down meeting with other council members. So we're gonna have a whole bunch of neat leadership and people from the ICA that are doing some awesome stuff. Come on here Some week you might hear me talk a little philosophy. Might talk a little politics next time. Maybe a little animal chiropractic.'cause the ICA just launched its first ever counsel on Animal Chiropractic. I think that's exciting. I have no idea how to adjust an animal'cause I know their spines look different, but I know how cool chiropractic is. So it's gonna be a lot of fun. We're gonna have a lot of people we're gonna sit down and talk to and meet some of the people that we've already got going is I'm gonna sit down with Dr. Selena. She's our past president and she's, her and I are going to sit down and discuss all the different councils. The ICA has to offer and opportunities you have to specialize more the ICA and chiropractic. Right? Pediatrics. That's cool. I already said the Sports and Fitness Council, and there's more, but I'm not gonna tell you now. I'll have you come on and listen to the podcast later so you could hear more of those. I sat down with a student. ICA of Palmer College. Did you know that less than a year ago, they're basically, the chapter was gone and now they're rapidly growing in all kinds of new members. They even haven't asked for you. So that'll be coming out here real soon. And various other board members and other people in the world of chiropractic are gonna meet with me. We're gonna reach out to some of the other organizations that chiropractic too. Maybe not organizations, but some things the ICA is influencing, and I know we have a. Talk, coming up with somebody from Chiropractic Futures, somebody I got to meet at Chi Congress. So we have a lot of neat topics, a lot of neat talks coming, a lot of leadership in the ICA, a lot of ICA members, just other RAs, other ICA members out there doing cool stuff.
