In this episode, we bring Megan Marshall back on (previously episode 12 back in 2018!) to share recent life updates (including a big one: motherhood!). Learn more about Megan below.

Megan E. Marshall, M.Ed., is the Business Core Administrator in the Smeal College of Business at Penn State University. She is also the co-founder of the F.L.Y. Movement (Fuel. Love. You.). They seek to provide educational workshops to cultivate safe spaces for athletic teams to discuss body image, social media, sport and performance. Their mission is to create transparency in the way you think and talk about body image and eating disorders in athletics.


Megan began her time at Penn State as a Division 1 student-athlete on the track and field team. She was a Big Ten Medalist in the Distance Medley Relay, a Big Ten Scorer in the 800 meters, and a member of the Penn State school record-setting Distance Medley Relay team in 2007.

Megan has worked in Higher Education for 8 years. She has been a part of many wellness efforts on campus such as: The Body Project, a dissonance-based body acceptance intervention program & Stand For State, Penn State’s bystander intervention program focusing on sexual and relationship violence, mental health concerns, acts of bias, and risky drinking and drug use. She has also collaborated with multiple stake-holders across campus and presented at the DUS Advising Conference on Mental Health on College Campuses.

In addition, Megan will be speaking at our upcoming Strong Runner Chick Retreat this June in Mt. Hood, OR, this time to focus on the importance of self-care and mental well-being. Connect with Megan @fuelloveyou on Instagram!
