Before jumping into all of the amazing interviews to come, I am catching you up on the events of my traumatic knee injury in the semifinals of ADCC September 2022. I discuss why it was the best thing that could have happened, and how life has evolved since. I overview the journey from Las Vegas to California, MRI results of the injury, potential of surgery and healing timeline, return to training and competition, and what I’m focused on in the meantime. Special thanks to Brigham and his team at Ways2Well (https://www.ways2well.com https://instagram.com/ways2well?igshid=Zjc2ZTc4Nzk=), along with my team of coaches, trainers, doctors, and healers.
