Episode 507 - Running Through Life (and Storms!) with Rachel Pedersen
What do you get when a Navy Sea Cadet-turned-hairstylist-turned-multimillion-dollar entrepreneur laces up her shoes and hits the pavement? A wildly relatable, honest, and joy-filled conversation with none other than Rachel Pedersen!
This episode is as real as it gets—literally recorded in two parts because a tornado took out Rachel’s power mid-interview! But just like Rachel’s story, this chat is all about riding the storms and running anyway.
We cover:
•Why team sports weren’t her thing—but running solo was
•The life-changing gift of a personal fitness ribbon and an 8-minute mile
•How grief, bipolar diagnosis, and raising kids shaped her relationship with movement
•Why she doesn’t call herself a runner (but absolutely is one)
•Walking meetings, treadmill admin, and tricking her kids into Just Dance cardio sessions
•Plus: horses, hairdressing, thrifting, sewing, and that time a TikTok running trend went hilariously wrong
Whether you’re running marathons or just running errands, this episode is a beautiful reminder that we’re all doing our best—and that movement (however it looks) is a tool, a release, and sometimes… a really good excuse to listen to fantasy audiobooks.
🎧 Plug in, hit play, and join us for a wild, wonderful run through Rachel’s world.
Here’s a bunch of links if you’re interested in social media marketing (like I am ;-) ) and you want to see some of the fabulous work Rachel is doing :-
A couple of BIG favours:
1) please like and review this podcast so more people will discover it :)
2) come on the podcast and talk about your running journey and/or refer someone you’d love me to interview (whether you know them or not :) ) Lets not keep the power of running a secret any more! Hit me up on Facebook/Instagram (FitMIND FitBODY) or send me an email - Michelle @ FitMINDFitBODY .co
