Ep 81: Why We Have To Push Ourselves Sep 28, 2017

Show notes

Seizing the moment is really hard! And I'm always asked about how, after spending decades as the self-proclaimed former president of the "I f*cking hate running club", I was finally able to find a way to get and stay active. And the truth is, I didn't. I still struggle to get out the door. Running is hard. And painful. But what I learned was how to work towards goals that made me feel strong, empowered, and confident. Today, I want to talk about why we have to push ourselves every single day.

Ep 80: No One Should Ever Be Made To Feel Unsafe Sep 26, 2017

Show notes

The running community is an inclusive, supportive, and incredible community to be a part of. But this is something that needs to be addressed, last week, I saw this comment on a photo I posted to my Instagram: "Wow I saw you run by, I had already finished 30 minutes before you and was watching the finishers. If I knew that was you I would have tripped your slow, cheating, banditting and felt justified like Antifa at a Trump rally. Your a disgrace to women who put in the work your no inspiration."

Not only is it never acceptable to make someone feel unsafe, but we need to talk about shaming. Because that is not what I stand for.

Ep 79: Don't Waste The Time You Have Sep 20, 2017

Show notes

After my brother passed away, my birthday became a tough day to get through. Grief is tough. And on the day where I'm supposed to be celebrating my life, it's hard not to think about how I spent another year without him. But one thing his passing has done is make me aware of how fleeting our time really is.

Today, I want to talk about how important it is that we make the most out of the time we have.

Ep 78: You Best Effort Is What Matters Sep 19, 2017

Show notes

Sometimes our best effort is just showing up. Other times, it's pushing yourself to keep fighting with everything you have. It's been four months since I last raced and after this weekend, I have an even clearer understanding of why our personal best effort is all that matters.

Ep 77: Facing Your Fears, Belonging and Feeling Grateful Sep 13, 2017

Show notes

You are hardest on yourself. That's what I've consistently wrestled with over the last four months. Whenever I'm feeling insecure, I project the awful things I say to myself onto others. And when I do it enough, it's hard to remember that it's all make believe. But it always comes back to me and what I say to myself. Getting the chance to remind myself that I can prove myself wrong if I just get out of my own god damn way, it's a game changer. And it's a lesson I feel like I've had to learn over and over and over again. I have so many thoughts from this weekend's @takethebridge. But a huge, exciting, strong, and really painful step forward happened on Friday. And it would not have happened without a handful of badass women who helped me face my fears. I'm doing a lot of mind unpacking on the #RunSelfieRepeat podcast this week. It's a big week. 🤘🏽Give yourself permission to succeed. #SportsBraSquad ❤️ #badassladygang 📸 @baklinerunning

Belonging is something I've struggled with when it comes to running. And how I feel about myself is directly related to how included or insecure I feel about my place. When I'm feeling confident, doing the work to feel confident, and surrounded by people who challenge me and who want to see me put my strongest foot forward, it's easy to ignore the people who try to make me feel like I don't belong. But the truth is, that's not always the case. I've been struggling over the last few months and it wasn't until I had the support of a bunch of women that I finally found a way to address it. Let's talk about facing our fears, belonging, and feeling grateful.

Ep 73: The Secret to Fighting Through Self Doubt Aug 23, 2017

Show notes

There's a secret weapon for those moments when you want to give up or pull back. What is it? MANTRAS. I remember as a new runner, Googling mantras, trying to find the one mantra that would help stick it out when I wanted to quit. That's when I discovered how important it is to find a word or phrase that is deeply personal to you. Let's talk about the secret to fighting through self-doubt.

But today, TODAY was a big day. And well...let's talk about what's next and why it's so important to believe in yourself.
