Welcome to Health Interrupted hosted by Celebrity Personal Trainer, Gina Lombardi, and Former Miss America, Laura Kaeppeler. Our guest today is Jackie Joyner-Kersee. Having been dubbed ‘The Greatest Female Athlete of the 20th Century’ by Sports Illustrated, Jackie Joyner Kersee’s athletic accomplishments are literally second to none. By the conclusion of her career in the heptathlon and long jump events, she had amassed six Olympic medals (3 gold, 1 silver, 2 bronze) and four World Champion titles over four consecutive Olympic Games. Jackie was the first woman in history to earn more than 7,000 points in the heptathlon and today, over 20 years later, she still holds the world heptathlon record of 7,291 points. She continues to hold the Olympic and national records in the long jump and her 1994 performance in the long jump remains the second-longest in history. In addition to heptathlon and long jump, Jackie was a world-class 100m and 200m runner and, after a decorated All-American career in basketball at UCLA, she eventually played professional basketball for a short time.   Jackie’s athletic accomplishments have been well documented and remain some of the best ever across all of sports. Less well known are her tireless efforts and remarkable accomplishments off the field as a philanthropist and an advocate for children’s education, health issues (in particular asthma from which she has suffered throughout her life), racial equality, social reform and women’s rights. Born in 1962, in East St. Louis, IL, Jackie came from very humble beginnings but despite the at times, very strained conditions she describes her early home life as being full of love, principle, and discipline. These ingrained values have served Jackie well both on and off the field throughout her life. She has been described by the sports media as one of the warmest, most even-tempered, grace-filled persons in all of athletics. Jackie is the author of both A Kind of Grace (1997), her autobiography, and A Woman’s Place is Everywhere. She is an active professional speaker and is widely considered one of the most inspiring motivational speakers in all of sports. Jackie speaks on topics of athletics, business success, living with the limitations of medical issues, nutrition, women’s issues, and youth advocacy.   Connect with our guest, Jackie Joyner-Kersee: Website: https://jackiejoynerkersee.com/ JJK Foundation Website: https://jjkfoundation.org/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jjkfoundation/ Twitter: @jjkfoundation YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6tHfL5TEAvLOFp1Y4YecQA Instagram: @jjoynerkersee Instagram: @jjkwinninginlife   Connect with the Hosts of Health Interrupted:  Gina Lombardi https://www.instagram.com/coachlombardi  Laura Kaeppeler https://www.instagram.com/kaeppelerlaura  Or go to www.healthinterruptedpodcast.com for more information

Welcome to Health Interrupted hosted by Celebrity Personal Trainer, Gina Lombardi, and Former Miss America, Laura Kaeppeler. Evan began dancing at the age of five in his hometown studio and by age ten, he was accepted into the famed New Jersey Tap Ensemble. Upon entering his sophomore year at Montclair State University while pursuing a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Musical Theatre, Evan was suddenly diagnosed with Osteosarcoma, a rare bone cancer of the right leg. Enduring nine surgeries in a six-month period in an effort to save the leg, the cancer returned more aggressively than the original diagnosis. He was faced with the ultimate decision of amputation in order to stop the cancer and save his life, as well as undergoing chemotherapy for sixteen months.  Eighteen months after the amputation, and only two days after receiving his “peg-leg”, Evan was tap dancing again. In 2018 he received a Drama Desk Nomination for Best Actor in a Musical, a Chita Rivera Award Nomination for Best Dancer in a Musical, and was awarded a Clive Barnes Award in Theatre for his portrayal of Tom Jones in NYC’s off-Broadway hit “Bastard Jones.” In 2019, he won the Courageous Spirit Award at the Shane’s Inspiration/Inclusion Matters Gala.
