Listen "046: Amy Bream"
Episode Synopsis
In this bonus episode of The Adaptive Athlete Podcast, Mat Hotho is joined by adaptive athletes Amy Bream and Brett Palser for a wide-ranging conversation on competition, community, and the evolving landscape of adaptive fitness.Amy reflects on her final season competing, and what it meant to return to the floor one last time. The discussion then turns to Amy’s role with the World Fitness Project, where she is a commentator. She explains the Project’s Pro and Challenger structure, its season-long approach to competition, and why adaptive inclusion must be built deliberately rather than rushed. Together, the group wrestles honestly with fairness, visibility, and the tension between competing to win and competing to grow the sport.Throughout the episode, Amy offers a grounded perspective on what it means to show up when things are imperfect, why adaptive athletes benefit from being seen first as athletes, and how community (more than podiums) has shaped her journey.
