Coming back from injury is never just physical, it is mental too. The doubts, the frustration, the quiet work no one sees. And stepping back on strip, that’s its own battle.

Renee showed what perseverance really looks like. Leaning on the people around her, trusting the process, and taking it one touch at a time.

A reminder that results don’t always tell the full story. You can lose to someone one week, and come back stronger to win the next.

That’s the climb. That’s fencing. #comebackkid #girlpower #sportinjury
