Show Notes
In the last episode, I shared what was happening to me physically - the pain, the fear, and why I felt unable to stop, even when my body was forcing me to.
In this coaching episode, I reflect on what that mindset of “just keep going” really cost me - not just in health, but in how I viewed strength, resilience, and success.
This is a conversation for anyone who feels trapped between listening to their body and fearing what will happen if they step back. If stopping feels like failure… if rest feels risky… if pushing on feels like the only option - this episode is for you.
I share what I’d do differently now, the questions I wish I’d asked sooner, and how redefining resilience changed everything.
You don’t need to change anything today.
But you might start noticing what your body has been trying to tell you.
