Kendall Reusing: The Hidden Struggles Behind a Champion's Smile

I just needed to be here and the rest will take care of itself.
What happens when a world-class athlete reveals the hidden battles behind their triumphs? Kendall Reusing, a professional Brazilian jiu-jitsu athlete, business owner, and influencer, peels back the layers of her seemingly glamorous life to share her deeply personal struggles with eating disorders and body image issues. From being the valedictorian of her high school to training at the Olympic Training Center, Kendall appeared to have it all.
But beneath the surface, she was fighting a relentless war against herself, consumed by thoughts about her appearance and weight. In this episode of 'The High Cost of Anonymity', Kendall opens up about how her journey began in middle school, where the seeds of her body image issues were first planted. She discusses the pressure of combat sports culture and how it can exacerbate unhealthy behaviors.
Kendall also draws parallels between addiction and dysfunctional habits, highlighting the insidious nature of shame and guilt that often keep people trapped in their struggles. One of the most striking moments in Kendall's story is her revelation that despite living an outwardly exciting life, she felt suffocated by her internal battles. She emphasizes the importance of having a support system and the transformative power of community and fellowship.
Kendall's candidness about her journey aims to inspire others to share their own stories and seek help without shame. If you're dealing with addiction, eating disorders, or body image issues, or know someone who is, Kendall's story is a powerful reminder that you're not alone. Her insights into maintaining emotional sobriety and fostering a healthy relationship with food offer practical advice and hope.
Tune in to this heartfelt episode for a dose of inspiration and a reminder that seeking help is a sign of strength.
