No Magic Bullet Podcast - An Honest Discussion on Mental Health
Magic Hands
Dr. Adrian Grice and his resilency, triumph and perseverance.
This episode of 'What's in Your Toolbox,' a podcast focused on mental health, features Bobby Koven interviewing Dr. Adrian Grice, a chiropractor, athlete, and quadriplegic who has overcome significant challenges after a life-altering accident. The discussion delves into Grice's background, including his love for sports and his career as a chiropractor, facing opposition from the medical community, and establishing a critical research library on musculoskeletal pain. The turning point of the conversation is Grice's motorcycle accident that rendered him a quadriplegic, leading to an insightful dialogue on coping mechanisms, the separation of self from illness, the power of competition and sports, and adapting to new passions like chess and poker. The episode concludes with Grice's advice on facing adversity with humor and resilience, highlighting his profound impact on others facing mobility issues and mental health challenges.
