While figure skater Gracie Gold was capturing America’s heart in the 2014 Sochi Olympics, her new not-so-fluffy sports memoir, Outofshapeworthlessloser, reveals that her life behind the scenes was more dark comedy than cookie cutter. Gracie has always been candid about her mental health struggles, which is why Vic has always been a big admirer of hers as a female athlete, and this episode is no exception. Gracie vulnerably reveals new details from her life, opening up about her father’s affair and addiction, surviving sexual assault, and being a “failed anorexic.” Gracie and Vic discuss the stigma a women face around sexual assault, the pressures of competitive sports, navigating a culture and profession that glamorizes thinness and perfectionism, and you’ll hear Gracie’s plans for her future in ice skating! Tune in for all the details and check out Gracie’s memoir, the most interesting life story Vic has ever read, for a closer look into Gracie’s journey to finding peace and acceptance.
