TCR049 | Jill Ormond Whitaker: Celebrating What You Can Do, Doing What Feels Right for You & Mental Health

Listen Later

Hey Conscious Runners! Today I’ve got the most wonderful interview for you. It is with mother, runner and coach Jill Ormond Whitaker from Jill Will Run. I stumbled across Jill’s site several weeks ago and was captivated by not only her running story, but her personal one as well.

As someone who has/had Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and understands being locked in your mind, this interview was extremely personal to me.

I had a great time getting to know Jill and can’t wait to bring all this goodness to you.

In this episode, we chat about:
  • How Jill got started running
  • Running as a therapeutic moving meditation
  • Fitting running into a busy schedule
  • Not comparing yourself to others
  • Doing what feels right for you
  • The challenges of coaching
  • Celebrating what you can do
  • Eating and mental disorders
  • And much more….
