A Second Chance to Breathe: Cliff Lim’s Jiu-Jitsu Journey
-
Narrated by:

Written by:
Cliff Lim’s son started jiu-jitsu before he started school. What began as an activity for his son eventually helped transform Cliff’s health, family and outlook on life.
After nearly reaching 400 pounds, living with diabetes and undergoing surgery to remove part of his lung, Cliff realized that what he had accepted as “normal” needed to change. He opens up about depression, drinking, the end of his relationship and his determination to give his son a different childhood than the one he experienced.
Cliff also shares how CJJF Central gave his family a place to reconnect, restored his sense of community and helped bring faith and hope back into his life.
Today, Cliff is a healthier, more active blue belt who is learning to trust himself, enjoy the process and keep moving forward.
