On this week's episode, Xander interviewed me (Grace) on my entrance into fitness and the challenges I have faced along the way. Without too many spoilers, I was diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/ ME when I was 8 years old.This led to a lot of difficult barriers to overcome in order to improve my condition and also become a Coach, who can now help others change their lives too.We found it fascinating how although circumstances are different, how a lot of the lessons I have learnt along the way can apply to other people on their own health and fitness journeys.If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Please share this to your story so we can help more people
