Ep. 80 Surviving Blood Clots – The Athlete Mentality and Journey of Megan Henry, Team USA Skeleton Athlete

In episode 80, of The 9INE POINT Started With A Dream Podcast,
Jacolby Gilliam talks with Team USA Skeleton Athlete, Megan Henry
about her journey. In this episode, Megan shares her athletic
journey and the underdog mentality she developed to always keep
pushing.


Megan's ambition led her to compete in both Field Hockey and
Track & Field during her career as a collegiate
student-athlete. Megan's athletic journey and health took turn
when she found out that she had blood clots in her lungs. What
could have been a moment to call it a quit. Megan decided in her
mind that she will bounce back from this.


Race after race Megan has become an inspiration. There is still
more as she aims for World Championship and the Winter Olympics.
When's is not racing you can find Megan speaking and raising
awareness about blood clots.
The thing that I love about sports and competing and being an
athlete is that there's so much that you learn as a person about
yourself in terms of like growing and Reaching Your Potential and
personal development.It is never over.
