One minute I was cruising on my gravel bike, the next I was bleeding all over the road with a broken thumb, torn-up back, and blood everywhere. In less than a heartbeat, life threw me a curveball that completely derailed my plans. But here’s the thing—setbacks like this happen to all of us. The question isn’t if—it’s how you respond.

In this episode of Healthspan Digest, I break down the 3 lessons I’m learning in real-time as I navigate this crash, recovery, and the curveballs life throws at us:


Lesson 1: Pause before you push – why stopping is often the smartest first move.
Lesson 2: Reframe the setback – how to turn obstacles into opportunities.
Lesson 3: Adapt, don’t quit – the secret to building long-term resilience.

Whether you’re dealing with injury, stress, or life chaos, these lessons will help you keep moving forward without throwing in the towel.

👉 Your healthspan depends on how you handle setbacks. Listen in, and let’s figure out how to get back up—together.
