The Hypothalamic Amenorrhea Podcast

323: Running Was Her Job—She Still Recovered. Emily Knight's HA Journey


Listen Later

Emily Knight is a strength and running coach who knows firsthand how easy it is for health, performance, and discipline to become all-consuming. As a former collegiate runner, she opens up about the toxic culture she was immersed in, her struggle with perfectionism, and how those patterns led to hypothalamic amenorrhea.

She tried to recover on her own, cutting back on training but afraid to eat more and found herself stuck. Even after her period returned, her cycles were irregular and she couldn’t get pregnant. That’s when she reached out to us for support.

In this episode, Emily shares what it took to move past fear, find true balance, and finally get pregnant. Her story is a powerful reminder that you can recover—even when movement feels like your whole identity. If you're a runner, this pod is for you!
