Coach Sarah has a mantra for new parents who are questioning their feelings, and their sanity!, when they are in 'the weeds' so to speak. Love is action, and if you are moving, then you are KILLING IT. 

If your feelings are those of depression or you are having thoughts, even fleeting ones, of harming yourself or your child, help is available. You will be supported and assisted, never judged. Call or text PostPartum Support International at the following numbers:

Call 1-800-944-4773 (4PPD)

Text 503-894-9453

Available 24 hours a day, you will be asked to leave a confidential message and a trained and caring volunteer will return your call or text. They will listen, answer questions, offer encouragement and connect you with local resources as needed.

Coach MK reflects on a lifetime of speech impediments and shame, and how a really great day recording a podcast with a really cool guy is helping her turn those thoughts around. Btw if you don’t yet subscribe to DizRuns, do that!!!   http://www.dizruns.com/   #dizruns

A listener writes in and asks how she can teach her daughter about excellence when she decides to DNS a race, so Coach MK redefines excellence for this strong, brave, badass mother runner.
