Recovering Perfectionist: World Championship Team Member Megan ‘The Savage’ Henry PH281

<p>Meet Megan, also known as The Savage Meglet. Megan is a force to be reckoned with, known for her grit, determination, resilience, and perseverance. As a lifelong athlete playing two Division 1 sports, field hockey and track, Megan had her sights set on her next athletic pursuit - a calm 80mph sled ride experiencing 5Gs of force going head first with her chin off the ice, representing Team USA and the Army World Class Athlete Program for over a decade.</p> <p>However, Megan's dreams were put on hold when she was diagnosed with life-threatening blood clots and was told she'd never be an athlete again. But instead of giving up, Megan chose to tell a different story. She battled back to become a multiple World Championship team member, a 2x Track Record Holder, and ranked as high as 8th in the world. She was also the fastest pusher in the United States and #1 in the United States for many years and a 2022 Olympic Alternate.</p> <p>Now, Megan is pursuing sport psychology, where she helps athletes harness their inner power by changing the story they tell themselves and harnessing the power of consistency and habits. Megan is a true inspiration to all who know her, and her story serves as a reminder that anything is possible with hard work, self belief and determination.</p> <p>You can connect with Megan via Instagram. @<a href='https://www.instagram.com/thesavagemeglet/'>thesavagemeglet</a></p> <p>Related Episodes:</p> <p><a href='https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/pursuing-health/id1019070179?i=1000382904045'>Ep 52a - Tia Clair Toomey on </a><a href='https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/pursuing-health/id1019070179?i=1000382904045'>Realizing Her CrossFit and Olympic Dreams and Finding Confidence</a></p> <p><a href='https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/id1019070179?i=1000560784632'>Ep 262 - Upgrade Your Language: Mark England</a></p> <p>If you like this episode, please subscribe to Pursuing Health on iTunes and give it a rating or share your feedback on social media using the hashtag #PursuingHealth.
