Listen "S3_E19: Brad Romp - Stronger Than He’ll Ever Let You See"
Episode Synopsis
What Strength Really Looks Like Brad was diagnosed with MS at 45. Now 64, he’s a speaker, a cyclist, and a face of strength for others living with the disease. But behind the workouts, the travel, and the public optimism is a more complex truth—one that doesn’t always fit into a social media caption or a feel-good campaign. In this episode, Brad sits down for a different kind of conversation. One that doesn’t ask him to inspire, perform, or push through. Instead, we talk about the days he can’t move. The pressure to keep showing up. The identity that forms around always being the strong one—and what happens when that strength runs out. We talk about guilt, body betrayal, and the silent fear of losing momentum. And we ask the questions that rarely get asked: Who sees you when the cape comes off? Are you helping others because it heals you—or because you don’t know how to stop? This isn’t about overcoming. It’s about truth. And sometimes, the bravest thing you can do is admit how much it hurts. Brad's Website: https://romptocurems.net/
