In this episode, Drs. Drew Brannon and Gabby Caviedes use the 2026 Winter Olympics, and Lindsey Vonn's decision to compete after tearing her ACL in training, as a powerful lens into resilience, identity, and decision-making under pressure. Her story sparks a conversation about "fighting with what you have," how deeply sport becomes part of who athletes are, and the emotional and mental realities of competing while injured. They explore preparation, risk, self-awareness, and what it truly means to show up when the outcome is uncertain.
