The Body Keeps Its Own Record

You can outrun almost everything with willpower and momentum. Until you can't. What happens when the body finally demands to be heard.

I was twenty when my body first demanded to be heard. Endometriosis. Months of pain so consuming it became its own education.

The body does not forget what the mind decides to file away.

You can outrun almost everything with willpower and momentum. You can build an extraordinary life on top of a body that is screaming.

Until you can't.

The body is not the enemy. It is an intelligence. And when you stop fighting it and start listening, something remarkable happens.

The body keeps its own record. And when you are ready, it will tell you everything you need to know.
