Run, Selfie, Repeat

Fear is something that is always in the driver's seat whenever you're getting ready to make a change or even just simply thinking about making a change. Right? From a fear of failure and even a fear of success to the fear of living up to other people's expectations, fear can be the thing that stops us from simply trying and seeing what happens. Let's talk about how to drop kick those fears you feel whenever you're trying to make a change in the face!

I can't tell you how many times in my life I yearned to make a change. From losing weight to asking for help, I always felt alone and helpless. Stepping outside of your comfort zone is hard. It kicks your ass and demands that you give your best effort 100% of the time. But finding that motivation or seeing hope when you're struggling can feel impossible. Today's episode is all about what it means to step outside of your comfort zone.

"Balance" it's that stupid word that we all chase around trying to find but no one really understands it's importance until after they've overextended themselves. Ever since my first marathon, I turned into a total runhole. I ate, slept, and breathed running. But this year, something changed. I needed space. I wanted to talk about anything but running. I realized that I needed to figure out how to make running something I loved to do instead of who I was. So today, I want to talk about balance.

SOCIAL MEDIA, it's a wonderful yet equally dangerous evil. This past September, The Atlantic ran a sobering a piece called "Have Smartphones Destroyed A Generation?" that everyone should read. About a year after going viral, I realized I wasn't living my life but rather, in pursuit of curating my best life for social media. I knew something had to change so I set out to set some boundaries and find ways to keep my curated life as real as possible. Sounds impossible right? Let's talk about social media, curated perfection, and FOMO.

For the past few months, I found myself making this joke that I was in purgatory. Which is ridiculous because after four years, busting my ass, trying to get a seat at the table, I finally had one. I quickly realized that it wasn't that I was unhappy being apart of the running world, but that I was ready for more. Running has always and will always be a big part of my life. But running isn't who I am, it's just something that helps me put my strongest foot forward.

The last few months, I've been working hard on my next chapter, She Can & She Did. I've dragged my feat, struggled to come to terms with putting myself out there and having no one care, and most importantly, defining what success looks like. But when it comes to taking a chance on my purpose, I realized that just like running, the only way I'll fail is if I fail to try.

Anything worth doing is going to be hard. YES. But we need to talk about not shying away from the things we really suck at. Today on the podcast, I want to talk about why the fact that I struggle so much with running is why I continue to chase impossible goals. Sounds counter intuitive. Maybe even stupid. But hear me out...

This week, thousands of women shared their experiences with sexual harassment and assault using the hashtag #MeToo. But now what?

There's a really great meme making the rounds online. It says "boys will be boys" but the second word 'boys' is crossed out and, "will be held accountable for their actions" is written below.

I know this is a really tough issue, but this movement can't end with women speaking up. We need to see change.

Sometimes, even when you have every single tool in your toolbox, and you still fail or fall short making whatever you set out to do a reality, it's hard not to question yourself. Why you're working towards making your impossible goal, possible. You can't help but ask yourself if you're good enough. If you're cut out for it. If it's worth it. Or if the disappointment and hurt are worth trying again.

And the answer doesn't always have to be a resounding, "Yes!". Here's the value in having the courage to crash and burn after giving 100%: Eventually, you'll crawl out of the hell hole you find yourself in with a completely different outlook. You know how hard you can work. You know what it felt like to doubt yourself and prove yourself wrong. You see the power of hard work and persistence. And most importantly, you learn firsthand that anything worth doing isn't just going to be hard, but takes a hell of a lot of time, patience, and persistence.

Bouncing back from failure isn't something you can do overnight. I don't care how many Pinterest quotes you put onto your vision board, you can't fight through the fog or pull yourself out of the shame cave until you're ready. You can't force yourself to move past it. When you're ready to take the next step, you'll know. And you'll be able to see what you can do differently a hell of a lot more clearly.

The only way you'll fail is if you fail to try. I truly believe that. Not every day is going to be the one you worked for. But as long as you keep putting one foot in front of the other, anything is possible.
