Tory Sholz
A real conversation with friend, coach and mental health advocate Tory Sholz.
ENDURANCE: Finding the Correlation Between Physical and Mental Endurance in the World of Mental Health with Tory Scholz
As much as we know about the benefits of movement, the conversation around mental health could still include more on the power of physical exertion and endurance. This is the view of our guest, Tory Scholz, who is a mental health advocate, endurance runner, coach, public educator, writer, and counsellor! Tory joins us on the show to talk about her own journey with endurance, her work in mental health and her beliefs about how much power and agency we can find in getting out there and sweating! Tory currently offers programs for individual clients to help them reach athletic goals while addressing any other concerns they may be having. She works with Foundry, aiding people and groups of all ages, and integrating movement practices with evidence-based psychotherapeutic methods. Our guest explains why she sees this 'endurance method' as a powerful way to prevent, manage and treat mental illness, and she breaks down her own process and experiences of this. As an ultra-distance competitor, Tory has competed in international championships, in distances over 100km! This is an amazing conversation about a topic that deserves more airtime, so make sure to tune in to get it all!
