When the Medals, Rank, and Spotlight can’t Hide the Pain
Manage episode 518235853 series 3488772
What happens when the medals, rank, and spotlight can’t hide the pain anymore?
I sit down with Marine Corps Captain and former Team USA bobsled athlete Riley Tejcek to unpack the quiet cost of divorce 💔, the line between grief and depression, and how true forgiveness can free the soul 🙏.
Riley opens up about how success became a shield—how overtraining and perfection masked deeper wounds—and how faith helped her face the loss, move through grief, and rebuild from within. Her turning point came through real forgiveness, not to reconcile, but to reclaim peace.
A powerful talk about faith, resilience, and identity—for anyone who’s ever powered through when their soul needed to slow down. 💪
