Theresa Larson is a woman with many titles and one inspiring story. She’s played college and professional softball, served as a US Marine, and is now a doctor of physical therapy in San Diego. In her recent memoir, Warrior, Theresa bravely shares her story of being platoon commander in Iraq and battling some inner demons. We have a very raw and honest conversation about: The issues that come with being a perfectionist The challenges of being a female Marine officer How movement and exercise helps us overcome trauma The importance of owning and sharing our stories
On episode 27 of The Movement Fix Podcast, I am joined by Theresa Larson, DPT, CSCS.
Theresa is a physical therapist, movement coach, author, member of the Mobility WOD staff, previously an All-American D1 softball player, former Lieutenant in the Marines, and owner of Movement RX. Let’s just say, she has a lot of amazing things going for her.
It was my great pleasure to spend over an hour having a candid conversation with Theresa about all sorts of things relating to her past, movement, business, and more.
I couldn’t imagine a better guest on the episode going live on the day the US celebrates independence than a woman who served in Iraq helping us stay free and safe, Theresa Larsen.
