Episode Notes
Episode 117 Overcoming chronic pain and learning to trust her body again with Tami Thurston
Tami is one of the coolest women I know. A teacher, wife, mother, and warrior! I have had the pleasure of coaching and leading her in her training and health for the last 4 years.
The first time I saw Tami at my studio for a session she couldn’t even walk pain-free. She had to hold on to the railing to get up the stairs.
She thought we would never be able to train again.
Over the last few years, we have worked on rebuilding her foundation.
One of her first goals was to be able to move pain-free during daily life activities and get back to regular training movements.
Our work together has helped her to recover fully and be back training in her studio with the other Warrior women.
She has learned to listen to and understand her body better. She is pain-free during my daily life, and her balance, mobility, flexibility, strength, and mental health have greatly improved.
Tami, I’m so proud of you.
In our conversation we talk about:
- What her training and health were like before Warrior School
- How her life, health, and training have changed since joining Warrior School
- Her biggest wins (being pain-free, back squatting the most weight she’s ever squatted, her first strict push-ups)
- How she moved out of pain and fell in love with her training
- Her greatest insights and learnings over the few years
- What she is excited about for the future
