Post TBI, with severe vision loss, I embrace the life I nearly lost conquering the mountains of my mind…. And currently a broken leg and shattered ankle.

[Jill Wheatley @mtnsofmymind]

After a freak accident reshaped her life, runner Jill Wheatley searched for a way back to herself. The mountains became that path - rebuilding identity, movement, and hope one hard step at a time.

A traumatic brain injury fractured more than my skull, it fractured the autonomous, adventurous life I knew. The impact left me with minimal vision, life-threatening complications, and years of physical and emotional reckoning. Recovery was neither linear nor predictable.

[Jill Wheatley @mtnsofmymind]

In its shadow, I searched for meaning and found it in the mountains.

My recount in @AlpinistMag is not only a story of survival. It’s about what the mountains gave me when everything else fell away.

Couldn’t be more proud of pivoting away from a scene that doesn’t align with my values….. Having found my purpose through adversity, the mountains are the classroom where I teach about possibility and perspective.

Letting go of what could have been & embracing what is, acceptance, the most direct path to inner peace, challenged me for years following #braininjury which resulted in loss of 70% of my eyesight. I struggled to cultivate inner balance through acceptance.
