Mama Neely is back, and this time she’s turning the tables to help tell the story behind the woman we know today as Dr. Micol Neely.
In this special behind-the-scenes episode, you’ll hear how Micol’s journey began long before the titles, achievements, and leadership. From childhood tumbles to getting back up and racing at just eight years old—earning third place—her resilience and competitive spirit were evident from the start.
What began as a young girl discovering the joy of movement quickly evolved into record-breaking moments, contagious motivation, and even inspiring her own mom to lace up her running shoes. Along the way, Micol found something deeper: peace, clarity, and the runner’s high that would become part of her identity.
Mama Neely shares stories from school days, where science and biology captured Micol’s curiosity and set her apart. From impressive projects to teachers who recognized her drive, you’ll hear about the mentors and moments that helped shape her path toward medicine.
This episode reveals the point where Micol didn’t just hope for a future in healthcare—she felt the calling. The passion, the influence of great teachers, the determination to rise after every fall—it all molded the strong, compassionate, and sassy woman she is today.
