This could not have come at a better time for me! After a shoulder surgery and a bicep tenodesis, and a phrenic nerve/diaphragm paralysis, this podcast really helped me wrap my head around just letting my life’s course do what it needs to do to get me back on the trails. Walking is the best I can do right now, Sr. Bell’s discussion really caused me to pause and realize that there’s no reason to hurry through recovery.
You nailed it Deb! We all have those times in our running and life. Good to have perspective and give yourself grace. Dr. Bell really helped us
