What happens when life pushes you to your breaking point and you choose to keep going anyway?


In this episode, Evonne Varady sits down with Britt Achterhoff, a mom of two, longtime Sorinex leader, and former Clemson soccer player, for an honest conversation about resilience, identity, and learning how to trust yourself through life’s hardest seasons.

From being adopted and growing up competitive, to building a career in the male-dominated strength and conditioning industry, Britt shares how every challenge helped shape her grit, confidence, and voice.


She opens up about motherhood, postpartum realities, and why training became her therapy when everything else felt overwhelming. Britt also reflects on relationships, conservation, hunting and fishing, and the power of surrounding yourself with strong women who push you to be better.


This episode is a reminder that your lowest lows are not the end of your story. They are what make your highest highs possible.


As Britt says, “We only have the highest highs because of those lowest lows.”
