Summary
What do you do when your body tells you to stop… and your mind panics? In this episode, I’m sharing an honest update on navigating SI joint inflammation and bone edema, and what it’s been like to step away from training when running usually feels like the coping tool. We talk about: How to mentally handle unexpected time off from running Pivoting when training plans fall apart The growth that comes from choosing rest instead of forcing mileage And the deeper fear that surfaced for me: the fear of “running out of time” to accomplish goals This is a conversation about injury, yes…but even more, it’s about identity, patience, and trusting that stepping back doesn’t mean falling behind. If you’re injured, sidelined, pregnant, postpartum, or simply in a season where your body is asking for something different… this episode is for you.
