55. Well Balanced: Managing Anxiety, Living Authentically & Embracing Play with Liz Plosser

55. Well Balanced: Managing Anxiety, Living Authentically & Embracing Play with Liz Plosser

Today's guest needs no introduction. Liz Plosser is the Editor-in-Chief of Women's Health. She's been passionately reporting and editing health, fitness, nutrition, sexual health, and mental health content for her entire career. She has a 360-degree outlook on the wellness world, having worked across platforms at print magazines (Self, Cosmopolitan), with video (CosmoBody), overseeing content and strategy for brands like SoulCycle, and as SVP of Content in the digital space (Well+Good).

Liz is a strong, powerhouse woman I’m lucky to have known for the past 10 years. She’s someone I look up to and a wonderful friend. In this beautiful conversation we talk about Liz’s inspiring career journey, the pressure of being in a leadership role, and how she manages the anxiety that comes with being in a public facing position - especially as an introvert.

Liz opens up about things she hasn’t shared before, like why she doesn’t drink alcohol, her daily wellness routine that helps keep her mental health in check, and how she stays connected to her inner child. She also shares her advice for how to find out who you are. I am grateful to Liz for her vulnerability, and I know you’re going to be able to relate to this conversation.
