Today, we remember and honor our dear friend Shirley.
We’re re-releasing her episode so her voice, her laugh, and her wisdom can be heard again. Shirley, you touched our lives more than words can say. Thank you for every moment. You will be missed, but never forgotten.
🕊️ Rest Easy, Babe.
In this powerful and deeply human episode, Mallory and Jenn sit down with Shirley—a white belt from San Diego with a black belt in resilience.
Shirley’s story isn’t just about Jiu Jitsu. It’s about surviving cancer, overcoming a brain tumor, navigating neurodivergence, and choosing sobriety every single day for over five years. Alongside her husband Dustin—her middle school sweetheart and co-owner of Studio 33 Jiu Jitsu—Shirley has built a life filled with strength, service, and second chances.
From the mats to motherhood to managing properties by day and health battles by night, Shirley’s journey is a testament to grit, grace, and the power of community. Even when Jiu Jitsu had to take a backseat, she never stopped finding her way back to it.
This one’s for anyone who’s ever wondered if they could keep going. Shirley shows us exactly how it’s done.
