Born in Nanjing, China, Scout Bassett was abandoned after losing her leg in a fire when she was around 18 months old. She spent the next seven years in an orphanage, living through difficult conditions until she was adopted at age 7 by a family from the United States. She obtained her first running prosthetic at age 14, and then went on to run competitively at UCLA and would be recruited by a head performance director for U.S. Paralympics. In today's episode, we dive into all of this, plus talk about her time competing as a triathlete until she quit her full-time job in 2015, sleeping on couches and inside her car as she trained for the Paralympics. Scout talks about the lessons she's learned through her #hurdlemoments about resilience, her time hosting the Paralympic coverage for NBC, and offers up tips on how to chin up when life feels impossible.

I won't front: I haven't had the best memories in Boston. Between a pretty rough weather day when I ran the Marathon in 2018 and getting out of my last relationship after a trip here a few months before that, I'd say it hasn't exactly treated me kindly. On today's episode, I'm talking about the opportunity to reframe and make new memories during my week here leading up to the 2022 Boston Marathon.

Today I am chatting with Rebecca Soffer, she’s the co-founder of Modern Loss, a website offering candid content, resources and community on loss and grief, also author of the upcoming book The Modern Loss Handbook: An Interactive Guide to Moving Through Grief and Building Your Resilience. I know the topic isn’t the most sexy, but it’s important. We’re talking about grief.  I cite a statistic in today’s episode that 57% of Americans reported experiencing a major loss over the last three years. And as Rebecca says —, that can be death, sure. But, grief can also be a byproduct of dissolving relationships, whether they’re platonic or something more intimate. She shares her personal story of losing b th of her parents in her mid 30s, how she came to create a space to help individuals process their own grief, and then some best-practice tips for navigating it — ranging from journaling and specific thought prompts to movement and talk therapy.
