In this enlightening podcast, we delve into Carly's incredible journey of conquering Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) after a challenging 6-year battle. Her story is one of resilience, hope, and transformation. Prior to falling ill, Carly was a high-achiever and incredibly active, but the onset of CFS left her voiceless and confined to her couch.

Carly's path to recovery was far from linear. She tried various treatments without success and faced moments of hopelessness. It was only when she met Toby and embraced his holistic program that things took a dramatic turn for the better. Toby's teachings emphasized flexibility, fun, and letting go of the need to micromanage every aspect of her life.

A pivotal mindset shift for Carly was learning to release her fear and committing to progress every day, regardless of fatigue. She adopted small, consistent activities that helped her recondition her body without pushing beyond her limits. Carly now views CFS as a challenge that required rehabilitation, not a lifelong sentence.

Today, Carly has fully recovered and, along with a friend, founded a thriving swimwear business that has allowed her to explore the world. Her story is one of triumph over adversity and an inspiration for anyone dealing with CFS or seeking to overcome life's obstacles.

    Thank you Carlyand Toby. I've suffered for thirty yrs but as of today I feel like I will make it. I am in a community.

    Any movement is better than no movement was my best intake:) I literally moved from the couch to the floor during the vid and started moving. as previous athlete i either go too hard too early, or just bored out of my mind and frustrated at the current possibilities. But just taking it easy with a light heart, not "trying", and letting some blood flow is real great:)

    This was a great interview, I’m 25 and have been sick for 4 years. I’m going to join the course in the early new year, looking forward to it !
  • @julianparra6788
    I’m so glad I found this channel. As I hear people’s testimonies, I gain more and more hope that there is life after cfs. My goal right now is to focus on what I can control and let go of what I can’t.

    Just move, some. And expect to work to overcome deconditioning for quite a while, even after regaining energy.
  • @bonniespruin6369
    Is there somewhere to follow Carly? Hearing her say she gained weight and felt she needed food to give her energy, that really spoke to me.
  • @94Mariahr
    I can really relate to other people telling me that "it's a life lesson" and how I'll become "better from what I learned" in a way where they almost expect me to be grateful for the life lesson. I'm still in at the point where no lesson will ever be worth all the things I've missed out on, as I've also been sick during most of my youth. It's a period in life you just can't get back. Mind you, this has only been told to me by people who did not have chronic illness, were much older than me with no health issues in their youth and while I was not yet recovered. Not the people you want to hear something like that from and really not helpful at the time.

    My best take from Carly's success story is that it can take a while to recover properly. I am a lot better but still suffer from PEM. I get frustrated that recovery is taking so long but it looks like I have to be patient. After 18 months on the program I had hoped to be further ahead. Maybe I've loosened the grip too much.

    I’m trying to retrain my body too quickly it seems. I need to do 80% of what I can do, not 100%.
