Show Notes

Depression, anxiety, and an eating disorder all disrupted the dreams of American figure skater Gracie Gold.

She won two US National titles as a teenager and took an Olympic bronze medal home from Sochi 2014.

But in 2017 she withdrew from competition to seek treatment for her mental health.

Gracie is now taking a day-by-day approach to recovery as she explains in this honest, open, and raw interview.
