Natalie Jill

Do you feel back pain? Shoulder pain? Hip pain? Have you had injuries or issues and been told you need surgery? In this powerful and deeply honest conversation, fitness expert Natalie Jill opens up about her long journey through pain, surgeries, and recovery from breast explants to her most recent disc replacement surgery.

We cover:

  • The emotional and physical toll of multiple surgeries

  • Her back injuries, type A personality and ultimately her disc replacement recovery

  • The neuroscience of pain and how to retrain the brain’s response

  • How to prepare your body before surgery and accelerate recovery

  • Why we shouldn’t over-biohack, especially when the basics aren’t in place

  • Natalie’s foundational healing habits for the best recovery and beyond

Natalie Jill is a high-performance coach, licensed master sports nutritionist, and fitness expert who helps women redefine aging through mindset and metabolic health. After decades of working in fitness, she faced her own series of medical challenges that forced her to completely rebuild her body and mindset from the ground up.
