Defying Parkinson's: Scott Hanley on Exercise, Mindset, and Resilience

In this inspiring episode of the Bee Sober Podcast, we sit down with Scott Hanley, who was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease in 2018. When traditional medication wasn’t providing the relief he hoped for, Scott turned to a powerful alternative: exercise. Parkinson's has no cure, but numerous studies have shown that regular physical activity can significantly alleviate symptoms and slow the progression of the disease.

After reading about others’ success stories, Scott embraced the intensity of CrossFit—a fitness program known for its combination of strength and conditioning exercises. The dynamic workouts include movements like burpees, deadlifts, rowing, squats, and more—helping to build endurance, strength, flexibility, balance, and coordination, all of which can make a huge difference for those battling Parkinson’s.

This episode ties perfectly into the overarching theme of the podcast: believing in yourself and the power of mindset. Scott’s journey reflects the same ideas we've discussed with previous guests like Anna and Angela, who shared their own stories of resilience, positive affirmations, and the mental choices that fuel transformation.

Tune in for a conversation that highlights the strength of the human spirit and the importance of choosing wellness, no matter the obstacles.
