Building Your Life One Muscle at a Time | Brittany Weddington | TEDxTullahoma

On the surface, transforming the quality of our lives seems like a daunting task, making it less likely that a person even attempts to do so. But what if it were easy? Brittany Weddington, first-ever recipient of the Overcomer Award at the Nashville Fit Show 2020, shares a groundbreaking concept that makes even the most overwhelming transformation seamless. Born with less than desirable circumstances, Brittany has learned what it takes to overcome adversity firsthand. From sharing a bedroom to sitting in the boardroom, she is an inspiration of what’s possible when you set your mind to something. Brittany has spent her life dealing with ups and downs, and now makes her living helping others navigate their own trials and tribulations. She is the mother of two beautiful girls, a women’s physique competitor, and a daily reminder that, with God, all things are possible.
Brittany was raised by her grandmother after her parents lost custody of her and her sibling. Although her grandmother was an incredible influence on her, she would later discover the traumatic aftermath of her early childhood. She was determined to defy the odds and not become another statistic. Being the first “Overcomer” winner at the 2020 Nashville Fitshow showed her she was meant for more. Here is where she found her purpose. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
