What if recovery wasn’t about pushing harder—but about teaching your body how to feel safe again?

In this episode, Freddie Kimmel sits down with Dr. Sean Drake, chiropractor, recovery specialist, and founder of The Rx Movement, to explore what actually keeps elite athletes performing at the highest level without breaking down. Having worked across the NFL, MLB, PGA, and Team USA, Sean brings a rare perspective on why nervous system regulation—not brute strength or intensity—is the real driver of resilience.

Drawing from Olympic training environments, professional sports sidelines, and his nonprofit work, Sean explains how hydration, light exposure, temperature, movement, and mindset all shape the body’s ability to adapt under stress. This conversation bridges high-performance athletics and everyday healing, offering grounded insights for anyone looking to recover better, move with more intention, and build long-term capacity in their body.

Whether you’re an athlete, practitioner, or simply navigating chronic stress or physical limitations, this episode reframes recovery as a skill—one that can be learned, practiced, and personalized.
