Story From The Sole w/ Amy Downes

Apr 18, 2023

This week we’re back with another Story From The Sole and this one is pretty special.

Amy Downes is a relatively new member of our community and has been on a pretty remarkable journey. The mother of two had been a nurse for 18 years before issues with her own health made her question her career and the system as a whole. Amy had also struggled with plantar fasciitis for years. She’d spent thousands of dollars on traditional approaches like orthotics and supportive footwear but had never been able to shake the pain and only left her feeling more alone and isolated.

It wasn’t until she started training barefoot and found her TFC tribe that she’s truely been able to take control of her foot health.

Amy’s journey since then has been nothing short of inspiring. She says over the past few months she has rediscovered how to play and her joy for movement and play, learnt how to listen to her body again and made life-changing connections with other humans online and in-person who are on the same journey.

Amy is the definition of a TFC Explorer.

Someone who is willing to ask questions and search for answers in her own pursuit of foot freedom and her story is one I think we could all learn a lot from.
