On this episode of the Do Epic Shit Today Podcast, I sit down with one of my most resilient and disciplined friends, Sierra Scoggin. We met a few years ago at Venice Run Club when she walked right up to me and introduced herself. Since then our friendship has been nothing short of giggles, running, swimming, and heart to heart conversations about scary ass goals. Last year, Sierra completed a marathon, 70.3 Ironman, Ironman and qualified and competed at Ironman World Championships in Kona. Clearly a badass with a record who not only chats about training discipline, her swim career, and Ironman adventures but also the empowering side of growing up in sports and the social opportunities it’s provided her. Sierra embodies the balance of working hard and living a life worth remembering and it’s truly a privilege to have someone this uplifting and empowering in your circle. This podcast is encouraging, wholesome, and downright hilarious.

On this episode of the Do Epic Shit Today Podcast, I discuss a question that “shooketh” me to my core when chatting with one of my girlfriends. The simple question of, “What motivates you?” wasn't something I spent too much time contemplating and so I came up short on finding a true response when I was asked this. Through reflection, talking amongst friends and various research, I’ve narrowed my motivators to 3 main things and chat further on why I’ve selected those components. In this episode,I also share a helpful exercise to help investigate what YOUR driving force is and provide some reasons as to why you do things that you do. Get ready for a thought provoking journey!

In this episode, I sit down with Katie Halligan, a UK based athlete who started running to implement better lifestyle habits. Fast forward two years later, Katie has now qualified for the London Marathon in 2024 by running a half marathon in under 88 minutes. (Side note: she shaved 13 minutes off her previous half marathon that occurred earlier in May of this year - holy sh*t). 

When chatting with Katie about her goals, you can hear her determination and discipline in becoming the best runner she can be by pushing her limits and spreading the joy of running.  Additionally, we chat about mental toughness, how to push yourself when you’ve got nothing left and overcoming running insecurities.

In this episode, I sit down with Kelsey Myers, a triathlete, business owner and this winter will be the first woman to attempt finishing 7 TRIATHLONS ON 7 CONTINENTS IN 7 DAYS. 

And yes you read that correctly. Kelsey and I discuss what propelled her to attempt such a feat, the jam packed journey of those 7 days - which will have Kelsey sleeping on planes, showering in sinks, and conquering some of her fears. With over 7+ months of logistical planning, a supportive team at her back, and a charity as her driving force, Kelsey is an inspiration and a prime time example of what it looks like to dream big.
