Quote: “Strong is super beautiful. It doesn’t necessarily have to be about the looks; but, you feel beautiful, you feel good. That’s what matters.”
– Angela Gargano
Angela Gargano, a former American Ninja Warrior, is FINALLY here to tell her incredible journey of tenacity and resilience. Inspired by her story or recovery after injury, I had to have Angela on The Brave Table to share her story. She emphasizes the importance of embracing challenges as opportunities for growth. Her message centers on the idea that simplicity and presence are key to achieving genuine success in life–on and of obstacle courses. Angela’s gritty retelling of her growth is as engaging as watching her compete. Enjoy, loves!
In this episode we talk about…
- The physical and emotional aspects of recovering from a serious injury.
- The determination required to make a triumphant return after upset.
- The therapeutic benefits of sharing a vulnerable personal story with others.
