About this episode

Kelly’s Journey to returning to competitive swimming. After being diagnosed with a severe (6 finger wide) diastasis, Kelly was told by a diastasis rehab specialist that she should never swim again. Listen to Kelly share her story and how that information was incorrect and how she used swimming as a way to completely close her diastasis. Sometimes the things we love to do can actually become part of our healing story.
