I used to think I had to be going 100 mph to be successful—turns out, that mentality was the fast lane to burnout. It was wrecking my mental health, straining friendships, and even taking a toll on my physical fitness. I finally realized that slowing down isn’t just an action—it’s a mindset. And the best part? You can still be successful without constantly flooring the gas pedal. Here are my tips on how to reframe your mind, slow down, and thrive.

Let me say it one more time: Running IS Therapy! In this episode, Rick James opens up about battling the dark thoughts that surfaced while he was running an ultra marathon. No one ever talks about the mental 'dark side' that can hit during those long runs—and how it can actually be a turning point. I'm beyond excited for you to tune in and get some insight that might just help you through whatever you're facing, on or off the trail!

The topic of anxiety is near and dear to my heart. It's not only that running helps anxiety but anxiety can actually hinder your running. When this happens it can be devastating. In addition, we may be suffering from anxiety hurting our running and it might be so under the radar we don't even notice. I want to share my personal struggles and bring awareness that if any of these symptoms arise for you it might not be your environment, it might be underlying anxiety.

I have been having a lot of trouble getting out of bed. This is even happening throughout the summer (WHEN IT'S EASIER TO GET OUT OF BED). I was reading about this problem a lot and this exercise has really helped me get out of bed on my second alarm instead of sleeping through the 6 that I set. I hope this helps you!

In this podcast we are going to be piggy-backing off last weeks podcast about uncoupling the autopilot thoughts in our mind and trying to get past the excuses that we keep creating and not making them reasons! This is something that I struggle with all the time when I let them take control of my mind.

Being uncomfortable has really been holding me back. I find this a lot when I am doing speed work, I am scared that if something doesn't hurt now it will hurt later. I have been working a lot on my mental strength while I'm running lately and I want to share tools with you...because it has taken me a while to figure out how to practice pushing through being uncomfortable!
Enjoy! Let me know what you think :)
