Three Questions with Meghann Koppele Duffy
Three Questions invites you, the listener, to think beyond the expected, while having a great time doing it. Each episode explores a single topic where Meghann shares research, insights from her 24 years experience, and some great stories. But rather than telling you what to think, she'll ask three thought-provoking questions that spark curiosity, challenge assumptions, and help you come to your own conclusions.
Whether you’re a movement pro, partner, parent, spouse, friend, or child, this podcast is for YOU. Each episode is around 30 minutes to tackle Three Questions with three big goals in mind:
1️⃣ Foster Curiosity and critical thinking: Because a little curiosity might just save the movement industry… and maybe the world.
2️⃣ Share What Works: Share techniques, observations, and research that Meghann believes in wholeheartedly.
3️⃣ Have Fun: Life’s hard enough. Let’s laugh and keep it real along the way.
