#423: Self-defense and Safety while Running

Listen Later

Sarah and Maggie jump into an enlightening conversation with Jennifer Cassetta, a self-defense expert and 3rd-degree black belt in the martial art of Hapkido. In answering questions from the AMR Facebook page, Jenn shares:

  • the ABCs of martial arts—and how to deploy them on a run;
  • ways to bolster self-confidence and step into your power;
  • how intuition (she calls it “internal GPS”) plays a huge role in personal safety;
  • pointers on using pepper spray; and,
  • how to release your “inner she-beast” when the situation calls for it.

    • Maggie tells about returning to her beloved Orange Theory Fitness classes, then Jenn joins the show at 17:03.
