Welcome back to Anxious Like You! In this episode, Micheline and Nadia speak with Olympic gymnast Laurie Hernandez about spending 11 years under an emotionally and verbally abusive trainer. They discuss the cycle of abuse, how it has taken years for Laurie to recognize those red flags, and how a new gym has helped her learn how to love her sport and herself again. She also opens up about depression and therapy truth bombs. We can’t wait for you to hear about Laurie’s healing journey and hope you enjoy this episode!
