EPP- Meet Torrie (Representation)

In this episode of Emily’s Pajama Party, I sit down with my friend Torrie, whose journey to the jiujitsu mat is all about representation, courage, and self-expression.

Torrie shares how she found her place in a sport where she didn’t always see herself reflected — and how she’s learned to celebrate what makes her unique both on and off the mats. We talk about belonging, confidence, and the joy of showing up as your authentic self in a community that’s still growing and evolving.

If you’ve ever felt like the “only one” in the room, this conversation will remind you that your presence matters — and that your story has power.

You can reach Torrie on IG @torrieoneil be sure to also check out @themightydames as well!
