Taking Care of Yourself with Athletic Trainer and Entrepreneur Lindsey Keenan

On today’s episode, I’m talking to athletic trainer and entrepreneur Lindsey Keenan about taking care of yourself.

Lindsey is currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Sports Medicine at West Chester University where she’s also the team athletic trainer for women’s rugby. In addition to her academic and clinical work, Lindsey is the CEO and Co-Founder of PROmotion Health, LLC, a company focused on streamlining mental health screening in athletes. Lindsey balances a lot of roles and identities with teaching, research, clinical work, running a company, and being mom to two young daughters. 

We talk about:

How knowing her values helped Lindsey walk away from her first job (theoretically her dream job) after just six months.How her experiences and interests around mental health in athletes fueled her to get her PhD and to start her own company.The advice she received that helps her focus on her own self-care while balancing work as an academic and clinical athletic trainer, entrepreneur, mom, and all around badass woman.

At the end of the episode I share a quick announcement that the Women's Career Transformation Academy will be returning this spring! Keep your calendars open in early-mid May for a start date. More to come soon!
