Unbreakable with Jared Maynard
Coaches and clinicians are the strongest people in the room for everyone but themselves. I know because I've been that person, even before waking up on a ventilator in an ICU. In 2023, I was fighting a rare disease with a 50/50 shot at making it out alive. I made it out, and what I learned along the way changed everything about how I live, how I coach, and what I believe is possible after everything falls apart. This show is about training, rehab, the cost of being someone people depend on, and what it looks like to keep going when you don't have the full picture yet. This is for the PT driving to work exhausted, the coach who hasn't trained consistently in months, the clinician who gives everything to their patients and forgets to give anything to themselves. I'm Jared Maynard - Physical Therapist & strength coach. This is Unbreakable, and you're not done yet.
