In this episode, we open up about:

  • Preparing for upcoming shoulder surgery (July 9th) 🏥

  • Balancing hormone therapy and physical therapy

  • The mental challenges of modifying workouts while in pain

  • Why documenting the rehab journey is part therapy, part mission

  • Body image and gym comparison struggles—especially for women

  • How to reframe comparison into inspiration and take control of your progress 💪

  • The importance of having people in your life who push you, not just comfort you

  • The connection between success and daily grit (even without a sports background)

  • And yes… we talk healthy pasta and our upcoming Puerto Rico trip (plus dolphins 🐬)

Whether you're navigating surgery, struggling with comparison, or just need a reminder that growth happens outside your comfort zone—this one's for you.

🛒 Mentioned in this episode:
✔️ Pete’s Pasta – high-protein, keto-friendly pasta we actually loved (not sponsored, just honest)
✔️ Shoulder surgery preparation tips for active adults
✔️ Mindset strategies to avoid letting comparison steal your joy

📍 Where we’re headed next: Puerto Rico! 🌴 We’re recording the next episode from the island as we celebrate a wedding and enjoy some beachside reflection (and maybe swim with dolphins—Travis is locked in now).
