For a year, my knee pain got worse when I thought I was fixing it. In this episode, I share how chasing perfect form and the wrong rehab advice kept me stuck and what actually helped me turn the corner. I'll walk you through what I think caused the injury, why fear and fixation slowed me down, and the mental shift that finally moved things forward. If you've been stuck chasing exercises or worried about every sensation, this is for you.Coaching enquiries: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfylhlG-Ojte0w5NAnDIR6RW0MQdxUVlizR3Wb72dz9Og-wBA/viewform
