Selena Armitage: Defying Limits and Finding Strength

If you can’t fly then run, if you can’t run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.
Ever wondered how someone can turn immense physical challenges into a source of strength and inspiration? In this episode of the Addict II Athlete Podcast, Coach Blu sits down with Selena Armitage, an athlete who truly embodies resilience. Born with a congenital birth defect and later undergoing an amputation, Selena could have easily let these hurdles define her. Instead, she chose to push forward, using her experiences as a catalyst for growth and perseverance in her addiction recovery journey.
Selena opens up about feeling sidelined by her limitations but ultimately finding her place within a supportive team that uplifts and empowers her. She stresses the importance of self-advocacy and the power of taking even the smallest steps forward. Her mantra, 'if you can't fly then run, if you can't run then walk, if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward', resonates deeply throughout the episode.
This conversation is not just about overcoming physical disabilities; it's about the universal struggle of pushing through life's obstacles, no matter their nature. Selena's story offers invaluable insights for anyone feeling trapped by their own limitations, showing that strength comes from within and can be nurtured through community support. Tune in to hear how Selena's journey of resilience and determination can inspire you to face your own challenges head-on.
Whether you're dealing with addiction, physical limitations, or any other personal battles, this episode is a powerful reminder that you don't have to face them alone.
