We've all had our battles, but what happens when a health crisis turns into a catalyst for change? Fran Garton's story is a powerful reminder that transformation is possible, even in the face of chronic pain and societal pressure. In a heart-to-heart with Fran, a champion for body positivity and a fibromyalgia warrior, we unravel the threads of her journey and discover how she reinvented her life and now lifts others through her work as a personal trainer and pain reduction coach.
We dig into the moments that define us, from Fran's alarming brush with vision loss and migraines to the liberating embrace of roller derby, which steered her toward a new vocation and a new philosophy on fitness, one that champions accessibility and celebrates every body type.
In our conversation, we don't just talk shop about the latest workout trends; we get real about the continuous challenge of managing stress and the essential steps to live without the shadow of pain. I open up about my no-nonsense approach to coaching, where the interplay of mindset, movement, and nutrition isn't a mere suggestion—it's the blueprint for a pain-free life.
We delight in the joy that movement can bring, echoing the lessons from the life of an inspirational 84-year-old from my fitness class, and offer actionable insights for those feeling stuck in their health or self-image.
It's not just about shedding pounds or muscle gain; it's about shedding the burdens that hold us back and stepping confidently into a life that celebrates what our bodies can do.
