Off the Mats Podcast #284- Experience Is the Belt feat. Carly DuCharme

In this episode of Off the Mats Podcast, Carly DuCharme shares how beginning Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at 35, during recovery from surgery, shifted from rehabilitation to a commitment to personal growth and competition. Carly, a purple belt and Masters competitor, explains why she chose to compete only three months after starting and why waiting to “feel ready” often slows progress. She discusses the emotional and practical lessons learned through early competition, how stepping into a match exposes technical gaps more efficiently than regular training, and the difference between fearing a loss and fearing being seen attempting something challenging. Carly also reflects on mindset, confidence, and maintaining perspective during wins and losses. The conversation expands into competition across belt levels, the value of Masters divisions, and how she encourages other women to compete even when brackets are small. Listeners will hear honest insights on fear, preparation, accountability, and how competition can strengthen training partners and team culture.
