Hurdle with Emily Abbate

It's always a good time to get your health questions answered, but the turn of a new year is the perfect time to bring up concerns with your physician — as well. Luckily, Dr. Robin Berzin, founder of Parsley Health, is here to answer some of yours. We cover: Can anxiety medication impact my workouts? I've been on ______ medication for a while. How do I know when I should come off of it? I'm premenopausal. What should I know? Are there preventive things I should be doing as I get older that are good for my health? + more! Plus, Dr. Berzin offers up her highs and lows of 2023 (bank collapse, anyone?), and the great perspective she's bringing along with her into the next 365.

Oh MAN this was fun. Loved the chance to sit back down with Chase Ealey for the third day of our Turning the Page series. We talk about the difficulties that go with "failure," both in and out of sport, and how she's feeling going into this Olympic year. She also shares how she wants to interact with fans and followers in 2024, hoping that they can see her for more than just a World Champion shot put athlete. We also toast to our themes of the year, and Chase gives me a hilarious lesson in millennial terminology because I've clearly been living under a rock.

Les Alfred didn't accomplish any of the goals she set for 2023, and she's entirely at peace with that. Adored the opportunity to sit down with one of my friends, Les, host of The Balanced Black Girl podcast for the second installment of the Turning the Page series. In today's episode, we talk about how to set SMART goals, how to avoid unrealistic expectations and putting too much pressure on ourselves, and the cross-country move that changed Les' life for the better. She also shares her theme of the year, proudest and most difficult moments of 2023, her person of the year (hint: It's not Taylor Swift), and something she hopes to do more of in the next 365.

But as the host of this show?

Bringing back this classic 2021 episode in honor of the New York City Marathon, in which we chat about it all: From how she got started with running (fun fact: her mom once held the world record in the marathon!) and what it was like being a collegiate athlete to the sacrifices she made along the way to make a name for herself. We laugh over stories from her world travels and marathons past (Boston 2018, anyone), and she tells me what it means to her to be the 2017 New York City Marathon champion. We also chat big, hairy, audacious goals, why she decided to go after the back-to-back six world marathon majors this year, and what it's like for to wear the Coach hat with the Bowerman Track Club.

Victoria Arlen is no stranger to hurdles. At age 11, the now-ESPN host developed two rare conditions known as transverse myelitis and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis. As a result, she quickly lost the ability to walk, speak, eat, and move. She slipped into a vegetative state, and her parents were told numerous times that they should “let go” and that their daughter would never be the same. Fast forward four years, and Victoria beat all odds to make a miraculous recovery. She returned to life, albeit in a wheelchair, and soon found success as an athlete scoring a gold medal in the 100-meter freestyle at the 2012 London Paralympic games, as well as her dream job at ESPN — reporting for the X Games and Special Olympics. In today’s episode, she talks about the biggest miracle of all: defying the odds yet again and after spending nearly a decade in a wheelchair paralyzed from the waist down, to learn how to walk — and ultimately dance and run. She talks about her stint on Dancing With The Stars, the non-profit she started with her mother to help others get a second chance at life, and how she stayed optimistic even in her darkest days.

These days, Katie Schide is living in France pursuing her passion as a professional trail runner. And, it's paying off — last year she took home the win at Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc (UTMB), a roughly 171-kilometer (about 106 miles) trail race with 10,000 meters of elevation gain. And just last week? She came in second at the UTMB OCC 50K, showing that she's got some range in the mountains. For episode 265, she's talking about how she got so good at this sport, growing up loving the outdoors in Maine and ultimately moving to Europe to immerse herself fully in the culture with partner and fellow trail athlete Germain Granger. Schide talks about what it’s like to live and work with Granger abroad in a small town without many other English-speaking residents, and how the duo decides who does what race and when. Plus, she talks about getting her PHD in geology and how training and nutritional needs vary from race to race. Plus: Her best advice for anyone who wants to get on the trails themselves.

Go to the YouTube comments on yoga instructor Jessamyn Stanley's most recent Gatorade commercial, and there are people from all over the world having a conversation on whether or not she should be moving the way that she does, critiquing her size and clothing options.

For episode 264, she talks about the hilarious way she first experienced yoga, and why she decided to start an OnlyFans account to do it naked not all that long ago.
