If there's anything that Tayshia Adams is familiar with, it's a hectic schedule.

We talk about best-practice tips, from wardrobe to ~how~ you sweat, plus she sheds some light on what it was like for her to tackle her first marathon in 2021 as well as her excitement over her new ASICS campaign, Live Uplifted.

209. Ty Haney, Founder of Outdoor Voices & Try Your Best Jun 21, 2022

Show notes

Season TEN, what is going on! Excited to welcome Ty Haney to the show to kick things off. In 2013, she was a 24-year-old Parsons School of Design grad living in New York, pitching investors on the idea for her approachable activewear idea called Outdoor Voices. Quickly, the brand caught on and became way more than just apparel. It became a lifestyle choice of #doingthings. After 7+ years of building, the Colorado native stepped down, but it wasn't long before she was back to her entrepreneurial roots with Try Your Best, a first of its kind, Web3 community platform where brands and fans build and win together.

For episode 209, we're talking about it all: What it felt like to walk away from O.V., how movement is an imperative part to her creative process, and why we should ALL be thinking about Web 3. Plus: WHAT is Web 3 (in language that we can all understand), as well as the ins and outs of Joggy — a line of plant-based energetics aimed at offering that euphoric "runner's high" feeling on demand.

RUNNING THROUGH: Deirdre Keane, Nurse Practitioner (As Seen On 'Humans of New York') Jun 03, 2022

Show notes

Welcome to RUNNING THROUGH, a 5-day series on Hurdle showcasing stories of women who used running to get through tough life #hurdlemoments. You guys know the deal: Here on the show, I’m dedicated to bringing Hurdlers content that encompasses all aspects of wellness. Still, running holds a special place in my heart. While I originally leaned into running as a weight loss tool back in college, it’s turned into a passion of mine, helping me get through some of my biggest hurdle moments and connect on a deeper level with so many.

This week, in celebration of Global Running Day, we'll get vulnerable talking about tough topics like loss and grief, depression and postpartum depression, and how running and sport has helped them persevere, rediscover their self worth, and put on a brave face. For today’s episode I am chatting with Deirdre Keane. She became a low-key internet sensation after her life story was told on Humans of New York. Keane was 13 when her dad died, three years after being diagnosed with skin cancer. Years later with very little running experience, Keane signed up for two half marathons. Then came her first full marathon in honor of her father, which she finished in 3:52, and the rest is history. We talk about what running means to her, and her big exciting goal to run 7 marathons on 7 continents in 7 days.

This has been a tough week. After taking Wednesday off publishing new content to the feed, I wanted to bring a useful phrase to the Hurdlers that was shared with me during a yoga class yesterday. Make sure to do what you need to do for you, and remember: Nothing changes if nothing changes.

Manoj Dias had a panic attack working a corporate job that changed his life forever.

For episode 208, we're chatting about his backstory; plus — how to adopt a regular mindfulness practice, the importance of small joys, the beauty of community, and so much more. The takeaways here?
