Jimmy Choi | Parkinson’s to Marathons & Becoming a Ninja Warrior
Description
Parkinson’s at 27? Most would’ve tapped out — Jimmy Choi laced up and ran marathons (literally). Jimmy opens up about growing up in Chicago, being diagnosed with young-onset Parkinson’s, and turning that life-altering moment into a mission of movement, meaning, and motivation.
Jimmy shares how burpees, family, TikTok antics, and Guinness World Records became his medicine. It’s a story of grit, humor, humility — and a whole lot of heart.
If you’ve ever faced a challenge and wondered “Why me?” — this one’s for you.
🎧 Tune in for real talk, laughs, and some serious inspiration.
