#196: Confronting Fear, Overcoming Impossible Obstacles, & Choosing to Not Quit On Your Way To Your Goals: Lessons Learned From Running 53 Miles In The Mountains
In today’s special episode, I’m sharing my story of running a 53-mile (85 kilometer) ultra marathon in the Catskill Mountains of New York - a goal that had terrified me and I wasn’t sure if I could finish.
Throughout this long day, I come face to face with some of my deepest fears, need to make decisions and overcome seemingly impossible obstacles, and decide whether or not to quit when it gets really difficult.
You’ll learn life lessons that you can apply to your own goals like:
- Managing your mindset when challenges pile on
- Moving through heavy emotions, doubts, and limiting stories of the Inner Critic
- How to process emotions, pain, and negative thought spirals
- How to overcome discomfort in your goals and not let that stop you from achieving what you’re meant for
- Discover that you’re capable of so much more than your mind believes
In this gripping episode, we take you on a journey into the heart of the Catskill mountains during a grueling 53-mile ultramarathon. As darkness falls and a thunderstorm rages, our host finds themselves face-to-face with their deepest fears.
Join me as I explore how extreme physical challenges can become powerful catalysts for mental and emotional growth. This episode is not just about running; it's about confronting our fears head-on, discovering our true capabilities, and learning to trust ourselves in the most demanding situations.
Whether you're an endurance athlete, an entrepreneur, or simply someone looking to push past your comfort zone so you can achieve your deepest desires, this episode offers valuable insights on harnessing fear and self-doubt and transforming it into a tool for personal development.
Tune in to discover how the principles of mindset work and goal-setting – the cornerstones of this podcast – can be applied in the most extreme circumstances. It's time to dig deep, face your fears, and unlock your true potential.
