If I can be a good husband and a good father and a good person through this pain, watch me when the pain's gone.
Ever wondered how someone can bounce back from a life-altering accident? Meet Shadrach Feild, a cowboy and pilot who faced such a challenge head-on. In this episode of the Addict II Athlete Podcast, Coach Blu Robinson chats with Shad about his incredible journey of recovery after a traumatic plane crash in August 2020. Left uncertain if he would ever walk again, Shad found strength in an unexpected place: a HIIT class with Coach James Johnson from Addict II Athlete.
This class was just the beginning. Shad's story takes an exhilarating turn when Coach Johnson invites him to go skydiving with the team—a bold move aimed at replacing the trauma of his accident with a new, empowering experience. Shad credits his unyielding mindset for his ability to face these challenges.
He shares a piece of wisdom passed down from his youth: 'When you get bucked off, you get back on that horse.' This philosophy helped him not only confront his fears but also embrace new adventures with courage. Tune in to hear how Shad's positive outlook and resilience turned his pain into personal growth. His story is a powerful reminder that even in the darkest times, a shift in perspective can light the way to recovery and fulfillment.
