Life humbled me in the biggest way.
I went into my hysterectomy thinking I was ready,mentally prepared but scared at the same time. I’d done the mindset work, reassured others, reassured myself, and told myself I could handle it, but nothing, nothing fully prepares you for the reality of major surgery.
The pain, the vulnerability, the physical trauma, the emotional waves that come out of nowhere, and the slowness of recovery when you’re someone who never stops, that part has been tough. Really tough.
But the biggest lesson in all of it?
DO NOT TAKE YOUR BODY FOR GRANTED!!
We walk around expecting our bodies to always carry us, always heal fast, always perform, always cope , until one day life forces you to stop and realise how much strength it takes just to stand.
Even now, on the days I can’t feel the healing,it’s happening. Quietly. Constantly. Powerfully.
Let me just say this too — everything else is brilliant.
Honestly, the harder parts sit alongside some of the most grounding perspective I’ve ever gained.
My friends and family have been amazing.
The support around me has been unreal — the messages, the love, the patience, the encouragement, the shopping, the cooking for me, taking the girls to and from school… I mean I can’t thank you enough.
The support has reminded me that healing isn’t just physical. It’s carried in community. And I’ve felt every bit of it.
Right now though?
I miss spin.
I miss teaching.
I miss the music, the lights, the energy, the escape, and the community that rides with me like family of its own.
I cannot WAIT to be back doing what I love most — teaching spin again.
But this time?
I’ll ride smarter.
Teach deeper.
Respect my body louder.
And never take movement for granted again.
Here’s to gratitude.
Here’s to healing.
Here’s to not waiting for life to remind us.
