Content warning: This episode includes discussion of eating disorders, sexual assault, self-harm, suicide, psychiatric hospitalisation, trauma, and PTSD. Please take care while listening, and skip this episode if it is not the right time for you. In this deeply personal episode of Peak Pursuits, James sits down with Sim for an open and honest conversation about the story behind the runner many people know today. Sim shares the experiences that shaped her life long before trail running, including her battles with anorexia, trauma, self-harm, psychiatric hospitalisation, and the long process of understanding her own mind and body. She also reflects on the power of language, the role of therapy, and the motto that has carried her through so much: doing what you can with where you are currently at. This is a heavy but powerful conversation about survival, recovery, identity, and slowly finding your way back into life, running, and possibility. ***Don't forget, use code PEAK at Bix's website [https://www.bixvitamins.com/en-au] for 20% off Bix products, exclusive to PPP listeners!*** Thanks for tuning in to Peak Pursuits!
