"My big vision is to get kids off the couch and
back on the field, court, stage or arena".
A podiatrist, a mum, and the driving force behind Undefeeted Podiatry — on the sport that shaped her, the injury that led her here, and the vision that keeps her going.
Brogan Pearsall leaves an innovative footprint in the podiatry industry with the establishment of a fresh, vibrant and dynamic foot care studio dedicated to supporting children, teenagers and their families with high quality foot care — to ensure their sporting hobbies kick off on the right foot.
After graduating from La Trobe University in 2010, Brogan immediately started working full-time at a Sunbury-based podiatry clinic — the same clinic that helped her with her own heel injury as a child.
From there, Brogan jumped at the opportunity to become a practitioner at Craigieburn Podiatry Centre. Within a few years, the reins of the business were officially handed over to her, and she set about modernising and expanding it to better serve the community.
In April 2018, Craigieburn Podiatry Centre rebranded to Undefeeted Podiatry, with a vision to "keep champions ahead of the game". With a team of expert practitioners working across Melbourne's North West and a dedication to personalised service, Brogan and Undefeeted Podiatry have the formula of a winning team.
Sport played a large role in my childhood and essentially shaped the adult I have grown to be today. Despite busy schedules held by both parents, my brother and I were encouraged to give everything a go. It taught us great lessons around commitment, teamwork and the dedication required to achieve our goals. These life lessons certainly provided a platform for my future endeavours, both personally and professionally.
At the age of 10, I recall so vividly sitting on the floor of a Calisthenics competition putting my dance shoes on with tears rolling down my face. The pain I was experiencing in both of my heels was nothing I had experienced before — even after a knee dislocation.
"The sensation was like my bones were walking on the ground without any padding."
Calisthenics is a team sport, so I had no choice but to carry on — however that was the start of a long journey with a podiatrist.
I was lucky enough to visit a Sunbury-based clinic for my heel concerns. It took some time to recover (with the possibility of having to be sidelined from all sports for a period of 6 months), but eventually my heels settled down with the orthotics I was prescribed.
I was lucky enough to return to the same Sunbury clinic for my first job as a qualified podiatrist, so I could pay it forward to all those youngsters coming in with sore heels.
"My big vision is to get the next generation of kids off the couch, away from the PlayStation, and back on the field, court, stage or arena." — Brogan Pearsall, Founder
My big vision is to get the next generation of kids off the couch, away from the PlayStation, and back on the field, court, stage or arena — wherever it may be. The entire team at Undefeeted Podiatry and I will be there to support them, keeping them moving at an optimal level and feeling great to perform at their very best.
Our studio is just the beginning in our quest to keep champions ahead of the game, with a vision for a mind, body and soul approach.
My husband, Adam, and I make it our mission to keep our baby boy, Parkes, active and exploring the great outdoors — with a focus on living in the moment. I really want to keep Parkes' childhood fun and full of great memories. We spend as much time as possible walking around the local park — he loves to swing on the swings, smell the flowers and ride his two-wheeler. We also love taking him on getaways to ride motorbikes, water-ski and play in the snow.
"I'm glad I'm not raising kids these days" is often said to me. I think it's because there's so much pressure with the rise of social media use, coupled with the fast-paced lifestyle we all live in. I am determined to slow it down and take it back to the good old-fashioned values of outdoor fun and adventure.
We, like every parent, want the best care and support available for our son — which inspires me every day to create something unique at Undefeeted, somewhere parents can trust that we have their little ones' best interests at heart.
