Triumph Through Trails: Sophia Ellis joins KOTL!!
King Of The Lifts - A podcast by 6 Pack Lapadat
Sophia Ellis joins 6 Pack Lapadat and tells her story of overcoming mental illness that manifested into an eaten disorder that almost killed her. PTSD from childhood molestation and her father's failing health sparked a downward spiral that had Sophia in the hospital in an almost unrecognizable state. After finding the barbell, Sophia found her calling. Progress came quick, physically and emotionally. Now a Junior British Champion and Commonwealth Champion, Sophia discusses how social media impacts female lifters, double standards in how we view athletes and coaches, how she has navigated both roles, and how misconceptions still linger.
