The fourth stop of the Move Her Mind event series with Asics was held in Nashville, TN. In this episode we speak with Lolita Sneed-Bryant, an RN, Certified Run Coach and Certified Health Coach and Abby Lokits, Executive Director of Free to Move, a non-profit advocating for Women’s Safety. Free to Move was started in memory of her late sister-in-law, Alyssa Lokits, who was shot and killed on a popular running trail in Nashville on October 14, 2024. We discuss tactics and resources for coming back from trauma, women’s safety and delineating between anxiety and fear. In this discussion, Lolita mentions a coronary calcium scan, also called a heart scan, which is a non-invasive CT scan used to assess coronary artery disease (CAD) risk. It helps doctors determine the amount of calcified plaque (a buildup of calcium deposits) in the heart's arteries. This information, along with other risk factors, helps estimate the likelihood of experiencing a heart attack. You can learn more about Free to Move and find resources here: https://www.wearefreetomove.org/ We’ve got several more stops, so join us at a city near you and bonus points if you bring a friend who needs your support & encouragement to start a movement habit.
