In this episode, I get real about why your old identity is gone—and why that's actually a good thing. I share my personal journey through grief and loss, plus the 3-question framework that helped me stop trying to resurrect the past and start building forward.
In this episode of "Fit for a Comeback," I dive deep into something I've been wrestling with since my father passed away in September: the realization that the old version of me is gone, and trying to get it back was destroying my progress.
I share my raw journey through losing my dad, watching my business collapse, and catching myself trying to perform as someone I'm not anymore. If you've ever felt stuck trying to get "back" to who you were 10-15 years ago—before the injury, before the weight gain, before life happened—this one's for you. I'm breaking down why we can't resurrect a dead identity and what to do instead.
I walk you through the 3-question rebuild framework I used to draw a line in the sand: What do you value RIGHT NOW? What is your body actually capable of today? And who do you need to become to handle the life you want? This isn't about motivation—it's about building a new identity that fits who you are now, not who you were before.
