Episode #91: A Shared ACL Journey (Part 1): Sarah Beth’s Story

May 6, 2025

Podcast Shownotes

When Sarah Beth tore her ACL on a blue run she knew like the back of her hand, she had no idea her husband, Carl, would suffer the same injury just weeks later.

In this first of a two-part series, I sit down with Sarah Beth just two weeks post-op to hear her story of injury, surgery, and early recovery—all while parenting four young kids. We dive into the emotional and logistical challenges of navigating ACL rehab as a mom and the steps she’s taking to come back stronger.

👟 What we cover:

  • The surprising way she tore her ACL on a familiar slope

  • How a delayed diagnosis led to a longer rehab timeline

  • What’s helped her most in the first 14 days post-surgery

  • Using blood flow restriction and early mobility to accelerate healing

  • Managing parenting, swelling, insurance limits—and progress tracking

  • What it really takes to get back to hiking and skiing with kids

Whether you're in rehab yourself or supporting someone who is, Sarah Beth’s story is an honest, hopeful look at what early ACL recovery actually feels like.
