Dr. Lucy McBride

You can also listen to this episode on Spotify!

13-time World Champion Boxer Tori Nelson is a fighter in and out of the ring.

Raised by a single mom and her older brothers, Tori spent her childhood stuffing down her emotions and desperately searching for ways to release her pent-up anger. It sometimes landed her in trouble. That was until she found boxing. The sport catapulted her into tip-top physical shape and provided an outlet for her anger.

In this episode, Tori discusses her rough-and-tumble childhood, dust-ups with the law, and triumphant moments that propelled her into the Boxing Hall of Fame.

Beyond the Prescription

Each week, Dr. Lucy McBride talks with her guests like she does her patients — pulling the curtain back on what it means to be healthy, connecting the dots between mental and physical health. To Dr. McBride, health is about more than the absence of disease. Health is a process, not an outcome. It's about having awareness of our medical facts, acceptance of the things we cannot control, and agency over what we can change.
