In this podcast episode, Megan Blacksmith, co-founder of Zesty, shares her transformative journey from extreme running and health complications to discovering the power of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). Megan discusses the idea that 'success leaves clues' and how to overcome limiting beliefs and patterns in both life and running. She details her personal experiences with postpartum anxiety and depression, triggered by extreme marathon training, and how it led her to explore holistic health, functional medicine, and ultimately NLP. Megan emphasizes the importance of language in uncovering one's model of the world and strategies for achieving one's goals. The podcast highlights how NLP can aid not just in improving running performance but in various aspects of life by uncovering and reprogramming deep-seated beliefs. Additionally, Megan mentions the upcoming habit training event in Dallas, inviting listeners to join and discover how NLP can transform their lives and leadership skills.
