#119 - Turning Trauma into Armor: The Erica Amoroso Story

Erica Amoroso is a walking contradiction: a compassionate Special Ed teacher by day and a fierce Jiu-Jitsu competitor by night. After carrying the weight of severe childhood trauma until the age of 25, she broke the cycle and is now six years sober. We explore how she channeled an "addictive personality" into independence, using the physical pressure of BJJ and lifting to reclaim ownership of her body. Blind in one eye but seeing her future clearly, she shares how she transformed her deepest wounds into impenetrable armor.

Real people, real stories, real f**king life.
