693. Out-training Parkinson’s: A Comeback Story – with Scott Hanley

Scott Hanley joins me to talk about how he turned the tables on his Parkinson’s diagnosis. We explore how mindset, movement, and a willingness to experiment played key roles in his recovery.

We also talk about CrossFit, brain health, neuroplasticity, and the social disconnection that’s worsened since COVID. It’s a conversation packed with practical insight, big inspiration, and a reminder that it’s never too late to change the trajectory of your life.
