Peak Protocols: An Arena Labs Series
Coaching the Frontlines of Medicine with Jackie Pen
In the premiere episode of Peak Protocols, we sit down with Jackie Pen — an elite performance coach whose journey has taken her from training world-class athletes at Exos and Future to leading clinician performance at Arena Labs.
Jackie isn’t just coaching the frontline of medicine, she’s redefining it. Her team translates the tools and frameworks used by Olympic athletes and special operations forces into practical, science-backed protocols for healthcare’s most demanding environments.
Whether it’s a 24-hour shift, a trauma bay at 3AM, or the quiet toll of burnout, Jackie’s coaches meet clinicians where they are, delivering strategies for readiness, recovery, and resilience.
This episode is a deep dive into what it truly takes to coach those who never get to stop.
