Just weeks after surgery, he was already back training and even preparing for a powerlifting competition. His story is one of courage, resilience, and perspective - from managing phantom limb pain to finding motivation through fitness, and showing that discipline beats comfort every time.This is a powerful story about choosing gratitude, strength, and comeback energy - no matter what life throws your way.This episode is proudly sponsored by ADHD Now - the online clinic transforming ADHD assessment and care across Ireland.
