In this episode of Experible, we dive deep into Alyssa Age's transformative journey and how she went from thinking she wasn’t cut out for sports to competing on national stages. We uncover the mental shifts that accompany physical training, the impact of fitness on self-esteem, Alyssa's insights on overcoming self-imposed limitations, and how she challenges the traditional narratives around body image and strength. Alyssa's story is not just about physical strength but a profound psychological evolution.
