Meet Olga, a gym instructor in Kharkiv, Ukraine, whose daily routine now includes checking bomb shelters and packing an emergency \"go bag.\" Amid ongoing tensions between Ukraine and Russia, she offers a raw glimpse into life under constant uncertainty.
\"We’ve learned to adapt,\" Olga says, showing the basement shelter in her apartment building—a stark contrast to her upbeat spin classes. Grocery runs are quicker, outings are timed around air raid alerts, and her emergency kit (documents, medicine, a flashlight) stays by the door.
But Olga hasn’t surrendered to fear. She still cracks jokes with neighbors, posts workout videos online, and finds joy in small moments. \"Staying strong isn’t optional here,\" she admits. Her story mirrors the resilience of millions balancing normalcy and survival.
