A conversation with Finlay Hampton, 100 + marathoner. We discuss slow running, fast running, the keys to a long life & myths around injury. Thank you for your time & wisdom Fin! Until next week, always love,

In this episode I discuss my relationship to alcohol, how it has affected my opportunities and how I replaced my habit of binge drinking. This is my journey (that I am still on!) ... I hope you take inspiration from this episode to see there is more to life than excessive drinking. You can break free from binging and see the world with clarity and joy.

Love always - catch you next week.

Cass

Answering your questions. Talking food, falling in love, start up businesses, running through grief, music, animals and lots more! Thank you for your questions, time, and for even being interested in me and what I have to say! What a trip!?

Always hope my friends, until next week -

Cass 💛

In this episode we discuss the secrets to a long lasting lifestyle change (that can result in weight loss) & the art of falling in love with yourself and all the things that make you different! I also touch on the importance of never comparing yourself to what you see online, or to people who have different genetics or starting points to your own.

Remember - you are you, and no one else is, and THAT is your power. Pour your energy into cultivating a loving lifestyle for yourself.

Until next week. With love. Cassia 🐈‍⬛🤍

9 Lives Episode 7

In this episode we discuss how to find your purpose after a life of 'failure to launch' and I give some tools for you to get to know yourself better.

There is so much beauty in changing direction in life, and having the bravery to go after what makes you tick. It's never too late to “become” yourself. Aristotle, for example, didn't fully devote himself to writing and philosophy until he was nearly 50. There are many benefits to taking a long, winding path to self-fulfillment, so have faith that you will know yourself.

Always hope!

9 Lives Episode 6 - the story of how I went from being out of breath walking, to training for my first ultramarathon. It is possible to achieve what once thought was impossible. I promise.

Leave your questions all about running (or fitness) in the notes and i'll do a bumper Q&A episode in ep. 8 🐈‍⬛

Thank you for listening my friends!

Always hope!

Please let me know your feedback - next week I will finish the episode with a Q&A from my spotify listeners, so please leave them in the notes.
