Description
It’s time for us to abandon the notion of the woman who “has it all together.” Mika Brzezinski has spent her life and career doing it all – from reporting live from the Twin Towers on 9/11 to delivering the news every morning as co-host of MSNBC’s popular show Morning Joe. As a journalist, author, talk show host, and advocate for women, Mika is one of the most formidable voices in our nation. Yet Mika has faced significant challenges on her path to success – including a long history battling shame, anger, a disordered relationship with food and the pressure to perform in a demanding industry while balancing her role as a mother. In this episode of Beyond the Prescription, Mika talks with Dr. McBride about the health struggles behind the scenes of her success, her path to self-acceptance without shame, and the unrealistic expectations women place on themselves. Together, Dr. McBride and Mika embrace vulnerability and the fact that we’re all works in progress – and that no matter how old you are, or what you’ve faced in your life, it’s possible to start again on your journey to find health and happiness. A new episode launches every Tuesday. Beyond the Prescription is hosted by Dr. Lucy McBride (https://lucymcbride.com/podcast) and produced by kglobal (https://kglobal.com/podcast-studio) Get full access to Are You Okay? at lucymcbride.substack.com/subscribe
