  • “I am a cyclist. I have had multiple surgeries for an injury that occurred 2.5 years ago. Things are going downhill again, and it looks like I’m going to be faced with a third major surgery. If I do have this surgery, there is a good chance I will not be able to ride a bike again, even recreationally. I am completely heartbroken. I remember the beginning of this journey when I thought 6 weeks non-weight bearing and 6 months to recovery sounded insurmountable. I can’t believe that I’m still here and still in pain. I feel like I’m drowning and I need help navigating what is becoming a deep depression. How do I find a therapist who will understand how huge this loss is and can help me through it?”

    Life, inevitably, will throw rapids your way. What could happen when you stop fighting the current and instead move in the direction of your challenges?

    In this Q&A episode, Coach Carrie addresses a question from Reese, a cyclist faced with the potential end of their cycling career. Coach Carrie conveys empathy for Reese's situation, encourages the practice of resilience, and emphasizes the importance of finding a suitable therapist, ideally a sports psychologist familiar with athletes' mindset and challenges.

    Coach Carrie uses the analogy of rafting through rapids to talk about labeling and accepting your emotions. She discusses the benefits of journaling, and the importance of taking one day at a time to avoid overwhelming anxiety about the future. Furthermore, Coach Carrie provides detailed advice on finding a qualified sports psychologist or mental performance consultant, distinguishing between their roles, and ensuring a good fit for effective therapy.

  • “Injuries, you can use them as opportunities to go do something great. I feel like that was ingrained in me early on in my life. I look back now and I'm very fortunate for having those injuries because they set me up for some great things.”

    This week, Coach Carrie and Cindy chat with Will Bartholomew, founder and CEO of D1 Training. Will shares his journey from being a promising football player who faced career-altering injuries to the founder of a successful nationwide network of athletic training facilities.

    Will discusses the significant moments in his athletic career, including an injury in eighth grade that ultimately set him up for success; his time as a football player at the University of Tennessee, encountering a pivotal injury during NFL training with the Denver Broncos; and how these experiences fueled his passion to establish D1 Training. He also talks about the importance of good coaching and surrounding yourself with positive influences.

    While anyone can learn from his advice about mindset and resilience, this is an especially great episode for parents. Will has three kids—two D1 athletes, and one aspiring collegiate athlete—and he shares what it’s like to watch them go through injury as a dad, as well as what his coaches at D1 teach young athletes about inner and outer strength.

  • “ How can you deal with anxiety not of a specific reinjury, but a more generalized fear about your sport being taken away from you again? That fear does help me appreciate what I have now that I'm running again, but also makes disruptions to my training or race plans—whether from how I'm feeling physically, or work/life stress—harder to deal with. How can I cope?”

    In this episode of The Injured Athletes Club podcast, mental skills coach Carrie Jackson answers a question from Emily regarding handling the anxiety associated with the potential permanent loss of her sport due to repeated injuries.

    In her response, she describes common fears athletes face during injury recovery, emphasizing not just the fear of re-injury but the broader, more generalized fear of losing access to their sport altogether.

    To manage these anxieties, Coach Carrie underscores the importance of mindfulness and the practice of staying present. Becoming hyper-aware of the previously injured part of the body can trigger stress responses based on past experiences, she says. But shifting one's mindset toward acceptance and focusing on what is within your control, today, can ease your mind and help you move forward.

  • “Instead of being mean to myself and saying, ‘You’ve got nothing else outside of running,’ I said, ‘Look at all the other multi-faceted things you are. You are a son, you are a brother, you're a business owner. Humans are multi-faceted; you have an identity outside this sport. The sport may have helped you find more of your authenticity, but you're not bound to this sport. It's only a piece of the puzzle, a part of your identity.”

    When Merrell Professional Athlete Aum Gandhi first started running six years ago, he barely went a quarter of a mile—and he describes it now as “the most nauseating, grueling experience ever.” But something compelled him to do it again, and again, and again. Now, he’s regularly conquering distances of 200 miles and more.

    All that has taken him incredible places, including to the helm of endurance-sports publication Run Tri Bike; to that professional contract with Merrell; and as a key fundraiser for the Richstone Family Center. Several years later, however, all that came into question at mile 235 of a 240-mile race, when a hip injury forced him to make a huge decision about whether to continue.

    Hear how Aum harnessed his inner coach to rebound from that injury and redefine his relationship to running; how the everyday athletes he profiles on Run Tri Bike inspire him; what he gains from his relationship with kids at the Richstone Family Center who are also overcoming trauma; and his advice for the ultrarunner in all of us.

  • “ How can you let go of the injury? Sometimes when you spend a long time with a chronic injury, it shapes how you move, plan, and think about life and your body. How do you let go when the time has come?”

    In the seventh season of The Injured Athletes Club podcast, mental skills coach Carrie Jackson answers a question every other week about the mental side of overcoming injuries.

    This week, Coach Carrie delves into the complex issue posed by listener Cecile on letting go of the identity formed around a chronic injury. She points out how this attachment can make the transition to recovery a mental challenge.

    Carrie underscores the importance of reflection to identify what specifically hinders the letting-go process. It could be fear, resignation, or the perks that come with being in an injured state, known as secondary gains. To work through this, Carrie suggests a mental training drill titled 'stop, start, continue,’ which prompts individuals to list actions they need to start or stop to aid their recovery, alongside activities they should keep in their repertoire.

  • “Because I wasn't a competitive runner, I don't think I ever had to face failure in that situation 
 but in strength sports, when I compete, I'm doing that in front of a crowd and a judge who is just looking at me. And it's totally changed the way that I have to handle that fear of failure because it's right there in front of me. I can't escape that someone is looking directly at me and judging whether I've passed or failed. And what I've learned from that is just that it makes you, I think, a better person when you face failure in that way.”

    On this week’s episode of The Injured Athletes Club, Alyssa Ages, an endurance athlete, strongman competitor, and the author of Secrets of Giants: A Journey to Uncover the True Meaning of Strength shares the many lessons she’s learned during her athletic pursuits—and why sometimes, failure is the ultimate success.

    Alyssa discusses her transition from being an endurance athlete to a strongman competitor and how a miscarriage she suffered led to a profound change in her perspective. (So, a note that that’s a topic we touch on, in case that’s a tender spot for you right now.)

    She delves deep into her experiences with injuries, how strength training helped her physically and emotionally, and how she copes with setbacks using skills she picked up from various sports. The conversation also highlights her thoughts on body image and the cultural norms surrounding women's bodies.

  • “ As someone in long-term recovery, likely 12 to 18 months before I'm running again, I've struggled a lot with the muscle loss and atrophy to the point it's causing identity struggles. I don't look or feel like an athlete anymore. My coach and I will have to literally rebuild my strength and my body. How can I cope?”

    In the seventh season of The Injured Athletes Club podcast, mental skills coach Carrie Jackson answers a question every other week about the mental side of overcoming injuries.

    This week, listener Cassandra is struggling with losing her athletic identity. Coach Carrie provides advice and insights regarding the struggle many athletes face when confronted with a similar situation.

    She emphasizes the influence labels have on identity, the necessity for self-acceptance during these challenging times, and the transformative ordeal of “being the goo” as a metaphor for the rebuilding phase in the recovery journey. She encourages athletes to see beyond their athletic identity, as individuals are more than a single label or role.

  • “You need to equip your young adult for how to get through it on their own. So shepherd them. Get them the tools and resources. Let them mess it up a little bit. It's natural to protect, protect, protect, and direct, direct, direct—but your child needs to explore this time on their own a little bit with the right resources and the right people around them. They're going to go through this again and again and again at different stages of their life and going through an injury at a young age, they're going to have to grow up a little bit faster. So help them, but don't control them.”

    In this week’s episode of The Injured Athletes Club podcast, Britt Hunter, a former Division I basketball player, shares her struggle recovering from an injury that changed her professional trajectory.

    She discusses how this led to her battling depression, attempting suicide—heads-up that there is a frank discussion of that moment in this episode—and eventually finding her path forward. She moved on to the field of education, which she describes as a lifeline.

    Britt emphasizes the importance of mental health resources for student-athletes and suggests athletes pour their energy into a cause or mission bigger than themselves. She shares her story to inspire other struggling athletes and make them realize that they are not alone in their journey. And, she has many words of advice for parents of young athletes, too.

  • “ How do I walk the fine line between being independent and self-reliant in recovery—a positive—and opting to go it alone, which can be a negative? Separately, I’d love to know more about managing an injury in the context of a chronic condition. For example, I have epilepsy but seizure meds are not great for bone density. Flip side, reducing meds is good for bones but bad for the brain. Doctors can offer guidance but making the decisions is ours alone.”

    In the seventh season of The Injured Athletes Club podcast, mental skills coach Carrie Jackson answers a question every other week about the mental side of overcoming injuries.

    This week, Coach Carrie answers Jennifer’s questions about navigating the line between independence and self-isolation, as well as how to deal with recovery and chronic conditions.

    Coach Carrie emphasizes contemplating what drives the need to go alone, and how to walk the fine line between independence and isolation, knowing you may step over and need to correct at some moments.

    She also discusses the fact that there aren't singularly right or wrong decisions; there are simply decisions made to the best of your ability, given the information at hand. Above all, she stresses the importance of emotional support during tough times.

  • “I would tell [Amelia of four years ago] that you may not believe it, but it's gonna get better, and recovery is possible, and honestly, your best running days are to come. And that's something that I've had to tell myself now too. I actually still do believe that, especially as we're seeing women in their 40s just blossoming in distance running.”

    In this episode of the Injured Athletes Club, Coach Carrie and Cindy are grateful to catch up with our first guest ever—and first repeat guest—elite ultrarunner, championship obstacle course racer, and eating disorder advocate Amelia Boone.

    Amelia shares more about her most recent stress fracture, her process of recovery, and her commitment to strength training and varied movement as part of her rehab. She also discusses her experience of being an athlete in her 40s and how she has had to adjust her training accordingly.

    And, we delve into her journey of recovering from an eating disorder, and how it intersects with her injuries. She continues her work to counteract the messages that sometimes linger in her brain, including in times of struggle, such as during injury and rehab. By openly discussing her own journey in interviews and through her thoughtful writing, she hopes to offer community and hope to others through theirs.

    A special note: We’ll host an Instagram Live with Amelia on 4 p.m. PT/7 p.m. ET on Thurs., Feb. 15! Mark your calendars and join us here for an update and Q&A with this remarkable athlete.

  • “ I have a question about the mental roadblocks when you are coming back from an injury. How can you handle the sensations you feel when you return to movement and the worry whether you made it worse; the patience to progress back slowly; and the fear that you won’t ever feel 100 percent again?”

    In the seventh season of The Injured Athletes Club podcast, mental skills coach Carrie Jackson answers a question every other week about the mental side of overcoming injuries.

    This week, in response to Amy’s uncertainty about her recovery, Coach Carrie outlines various common struggles athletes face concerning fears of aggravating injuries, the patience needed to slowly regain strength, and the uncertainty of returning to their optimal condition.

    She suggests practical solutions such as keeping a pain log with healthcare providers, making the recovery process the primary focus, and staying rooted in the present. Coach Carrie also emphasizes the importance of focusing on personal recovery instead of comparing progress with others.

  • “Dancing on a high level is—you have to be open. You have to be open that you can get injured. You have to be open that you will have to face things that you don't want to face. Because if we are not open and instead are close-minded, we cannot grow.”

    In this week’s episode of The Injured Athletes Club, principal dancer at the Boston Ballet, John Lam, discusses his journey from a catastrophic injury back to the stage.

    He details the physical and mental struggles he encountered during his recovery, emphasizing the importance of patience, personal growth, having a trusted support system, and being open to change. John also notes that his injury led him to explore fruitful relationships and endeavors outside dancing, like starting a family and pursuing higher education.

  • “ For the athlete who doesn't have a "staff": coach, trainer, PT. How do you get emotional support and guidance on a regular basis from doctors and PT you may see one or two times a week?”

    In the seventh season of The Injured Athletes Club podcast, mental skills coach Carrie Jackson answers a question every other week about the mental side of overcoming injuries.

    This week, she discusses all the different types of support injured athletes need—and which types you can reasonably expect to get from your healthcare providers. She explains how to manage expectations in the healthcare system. And, she offers guidance on when it’s time to move on and find a new provider who can better meet your needs.

  • “ A lot of times you're stronger than you think you are. You just keep going. You don't necessarily have to see all the way to the finish line. You just keep finding that next step.”

    In the seventh season of The Injured Athletes Club podcast, we—mental skills coach Carrie Jackson and journalist Cindy Kuzma—continue to delve into athletes' resilience in overcoming injuries.

    We kick off with a can’t-miss interview with pro quarterback Alex Smith, who shares his journey of returning to football after a severe leg injury and life-threatening infection—and then, a few years later, taking on the 200-mile Pan-Mass bike ride with Team OOFOS, raising money for cancer research.

    Alex underscores the vital role of emotional support amidst the recovery process. He discusses the key moments that shaped his trajectory, including his stay at a care facility for wounded veterans. He highlights the power of setting attainable—and even seemingly unattainable—goals. And, he shares the symbol of resilience his wife presented to him after his return to the sport: a Lombardi trophy replica made out of his leg's metallic fixator.

  • “How do I keep trying in the face of chronic health issues? Sometimes giving up feels like the more sensible choice.”

    —Sarah

    “That’s my question too. How do I accept that structural issues are real and we need to accept and move on? There's a lot of discussion here about 'going back to' what we did before, but for some of us (all of us at some point) that is just not possible. I'd rather be able to walk for life without an assistive device than run for a year and then need a walker or cane for the rest of my days. Can you explain how to put the 3 A's (accept, adapt, act) in practice for long-term benefit?”

    —Yvonne

    This week, co-host and mental skills coach Carrie Jackson answers questions from listeners Sarah and Yvonne, who are both wondering when to persist—and when to move on.

    Standing at this crossroads is never an easy place to be. In her response, Coach Carrie talks about coming to terms with change and its constancy. Accepting that things may not be the same can help you sort through your competing emotions and touch base with your true goals and values.

    Once you drill down to those, you can start to see if you’re truly ready to move on—or if you’re motivated to do what you need to do to continue. And if you are stepping away from your sport, whether by choice or necessity, she has advice on how to say goodbye.

  • “At this point, it’s knowing the warning signs and when you can keep pressing on the gas and when you're kind of like, ah, I gotta, I gotta step on the brakes a little bit 
 If you've been unlucky and had an injury, you kind of know what it felt, what it feels like, whatever led up to it. You can think, ‘Ooh, this is similar. So maybe I just want to take a day or two off and go in the pool or do some kind of cross training just so I don't repeat history.”

    Pro marathoner (and full-time occupational therapist) Maegan Krifchin had a pretty incredible fall last year. After what was, in her mind, a suboptimal performance at the New York City Marathon Nov. 6, she finished two more marathons in the span of 30 days—each faster than the last. On Dec. 4, she ran a personal-best 2:29:21 for seventh place at the California International Marathon in Sacramento. And she’s run four more since, including winning the Vermont City Marathon on May 28.

    On this week’s episode, Maegan points out that it’s taken years of hard work to get strong enough for such a feat—and her lengthy running career hasn’t been only PRs and podiums. She’s had her fair share of injuries, including a hamstring pull less than 10K into the 2020 Olympic Marathon Trials. But she’s learned from the setbacks and victories alike, and she has many lessons to share with other runners too, about everything from prehab to nutrition to adjusting your mindset about cross-training.

  • "I just turned 56 years old and have been making great strides in the mental side of my tennis game and competing. However, last May in a doubles match, I tore a piece of articular cartilage in my left knee. As my orthopedic surgeon has explained to me, that cartilage will never grow back as it was. She has given me suggestions for things that I can do to try to create fibrocartilage, including cross training with cycling and taking Osteo Bi-Flex. Those things, I think, have helped me maintain my ability to play. However, I’m more susceptible now than ever to my knee swelling up or the pain worsening or the pain increasing in frequency. It has been a huge mental barrier with how I look at how hard and how often I can play, on what surface I should play, etc. I am listening to your podcast and to your Rebound book on audible and enjoying all of it, but I’m wondering if you could give any insight into someone my age with this chronic situation and how to not let fear overtake my ability to compete.”

    —Julie

    This week, co-host and mental skills coach Carrie Jackson answers a question from listener Julie, who is dealing with a chronic injury that’s affecting her tennis game mentally as much as it is physically.

    In her response, Coach Carrie discusses the learning curve that comes with such diagnoses, and reminds Julie she’s right at the peak of hers. In a way, it’s like starting over, she says—learning to both fuel the passion to compete and the desire to care for the body that Julie is in now.

    Carrie offers tips to navigate this mindset shift, and assurance to Julie and other athletes like her that although it’s challenging, most athletes find a new routine, and less fear and anxiety, on the other side of these types of transitions.

  • “It's really accepting the emotion and coming into the present moment—not time-traveling and wishing things were like they were in the past or time-traveling and wanting this to be over already and thinking about the future. Instead, it’s bringing yourself into the present moment of like, okay, I would prefer to not be feeling this way. I would prefer for this not to be happening. But this is happening, so I need to accept that.”

    In this week’s episode—a replay from season 1 that’s too important not to re-share—Coach Carrie talks through a mental exercise to get out of sticky situations during your recovery. This one’s called Go FAR, and you can use it anytime you feel trapped or are facing a bump in the road you just can’t see your way over.

    Go FAR is an acronym for Feel, Accept, Recover. To use it, you’ll tap into your emotions—even the negative ones— rather than push them away. Only then will you be able to move through them into the present reality, where you can take action to move forward in your recovery.

  • “A question I think a lot of us have is, when do you let go? That is, when do you realistically decide that the energy, physical, mental and emotional is not going to be rewarded and a change in goals—whether that's physical goals or life goals—is an order? In short, when do you stop beating your head against an immovable wall?

    This week—in a replay of an episode from season 4—co-host and mental skills coach Carrie Jackson answers a question from listener Dawn F. What advice can Carrie offer during what may be a time of transition? Can she help Dawn pinpoint her objective, and consider the possibility that it’s OK to pursue it through a different strategy?

  • “My previous perspective, or the way that I have always thought about my body, is that it's injury-prone. That's the narrative I had adopted and often just think of myself and my body in sports, or in doing any sort of physical activity, that it's not quite suited to or made for this type of activity and that there was something just wrong with me, for lack of a better way to say it. Through the course of talking to a lot of experts and pulling this information together for the book, I really recognized that sometimes things just happen. You could be doing everything right and something still happens.”

    Christine Yu had torn her ACL twice before—in fact, she opens her new book with a story about the moment she felt a twinge on the track. But when it happened again, not long after she turned in her manuscript, she had a whole different perspective on why, and how to cope.

    That’s because, in her research for Up to Speed: The Groundbreaking Science of Women Athletes, Christine had delved deeply into some of the shortcomings of exercise science research in general, including injury research specifically.

    In this week’s episode, and her must-read book, Christine illuminates historical disparities in research that harm women and girls—and, in reality, give all athletes incomplete information about their bodies, their health, and their performance.

    She shares how learning about these gaps can shift the narrative for athletes, and outlines exciting new efforts to fill them. And, she describes the way she’s moving through this latest injury with much more peace and perspective. “Everything will be okay when you're okay with everything,” she says.
