The Same Drugs

Jennifer Sey left a corporate career she loved to tell the truth


Listen Later

Jennifer Sey rose through the ranks over almost 23 years at Levi Strauss & Co, and was on track to become the first female CEO of the company when she  resigned. After speaking out against school closures during the Covid lockdowns, Jennifer was told to stop talking. She refused.

Jennifer is the author of Chalked Up, an autobiography of her time as an elite gymnast, and a producer of Athlete A, a documentary about sexual assault in gymnastics. Her new book is called Levi's Unbuttoned.

In this episode, Meghan Murphy speaks with Jennifer last week about her career, her experiences in gymnastics, and why she spoke up about the Covid response.
