Episode 16: When Your Body Betrays You
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This episode is a conversation about what happens when the body you built your art around changes—through injury, illness, aging, or circumstances you didn’t choose. I share my cancer experience and how it forced me to adapt my aerial practice, not as a cautionary tale, but as a reality almost every aerialist will face at some point. This isn’t about pushing through at all costs—it’s about longevity, grief, adaptation, and learning how to stay in the air when your body rewrites the rules.
