In this powerful episode of Girls Talk Healthy Aging, co-hosts Alli Kerr and Shawna Kaminski sit down with Jenedy Paige—artist, athlete, mom, and American Ninja Warrior competitor—to share her extraordinary story of survival, growth, and resilience after unimaginable loss.

Jenedy opens up about the heartbreaking loss of her young son in a tragic drowning accident and how she found the strength to keep going, even when her world felt shattered. She candidly discusses the darkest moments of grief and the tools that helped her rebuild her life—running, weightlifting, art, journaling, and her unwavering faith.

Through her journey, Jenedy transformed pain into purpose, finding joy in creating art that celebrates strong women and developing a profound connection between physical and emotional grit. She also reflects on her unexpected path to becoming a four-time American Ninja Warrior competitor, a journey that taught her the true meaning of perseverance and self-discovery, even when the spotlight didn’t shine her way.
