Description

What do gymnastics, mental health, and success have in common?  Jennifer Sey.  Dr. Lucy McBride talks with former Levi Strauss & Company executive, elite gymnast, author and producer Jennifer Sey about the emotional and physical abuse she endured on her path to becoming the 1986 National Gymnastics Champion; her journey from post-traumatic stress toward post-traumatic growth; and why she walked away from a million dollars and the top job at Levi’s. They unpack the anatomy of pain, disordered eating, shame, and the ability to own your narrative in order to be healthy, mentally and physically.  A new episode launches every Tuesday. Beyond the Prescription is hosted by Dr. Lucy McBride (https://lucymcbride.com/podcast) and produced by kglobal.

Each week, Dr. Lucy McBride talks with her guests like she does her patients — pulling the curtain back on what it means to be healthy, connecting the dots between mental and physical health. To Dr. McBride, health is about more than the absence of disease. Health is a process, not an outcome. It's about having awareness of our medical data, acceptance of the things we cannot control, and agency over the areas we can change. It starts with access to fact-based information to care for our body and mind.
