EP #109- Alexi Pappas On Redefining Mental Illness As An Injury and Preventive Health Strategies

Alexi Pappas, Greek-American Olympian runner, filmmaker, and author of the memoir Bravey came onto the podcast this week to chat about:

  • The irony of experiencing deep sadness after great joy, and how Alexi overcame battles with depression following the Rio 2016 Olympics
  • The inury metaphor as a way to better make sense of mental health and how to treat mental illness
  • How the passing of Alexi's mother at the age of 4 impacted her childhood and perspective on mental illness as she's grown older
  • The connection between creativity and athletics, as an Olympian athlete and filmmaker
  • "Prehab" strategies and precautionary steps Alexi takes to prioritize her well-being
  • What brings Alexi endorphins (besides the runners high ;))
