  • 23. Racing: The Good, The Bad, The Mediocre

    Welcome back to Wholistically, You Podcast! I share this episode from the perspective of being a college runner—dealing with good races, bad races, and all the in-betweens, but honestly this can be applied to any situation. We all have passions, we all work hard towards goals we want to achieve. But how do we deal with the fact that the outcome might not go how we planned? How do we deal with the crash after the initial high? How do we come back from a really low-low? Give this episode a listen to hear my personal journey with competition, and how my perspective has changed over the years. Enjoy this one :)

  • Food Friday #1: An Athlete's Diet

    Hellooo and welcome back to another episode of Wholistically, You Podcast! This week we're getting ~crazy~ and adding a whole new segment to the pod--Food Friday! This week's is a brief episode on the Athlete Plate Method, and a general rule of thumb for what your plate should look like during competition season. There's some meal ideas, there's some science-talk, and of course some life recaps.

  • 17. It's Time to Break Your Rules
    This week's episode is centered around breaking all the little detailed "rules" we set for ourselves. Whether these are food rules, exercise rules, or just things that make our lives too rigid. We shed some light on what it is like to live with a 'rulebook' written by ED, and share strategies on how you can overcome them. It is time to break your rules. 
    It's easy to feel stuck; to feel like you're not making any progress. In sports, in work, in mental health recovery...you might feel like what you do is never good enough. And you might think controlling every little thing is the ultimate solution...But give this a listen and you might just be surprised on how you're not really alone in this. We get real, we get raw, and we hope you enjoy :)

  • 16: Dear Running,
    Welcome back to Wholistically, You Podcast! This week's episode, "dear running," is a little bit ~different~. We're diving deep into my collegiate running career so far and the common struggles behind tying your identity to a performance outcome, as well as the highs and lows of the sport. In this episode we break down each year in college (there's been 5!), because each one presented its own struggles and triumphs. This 'letter' can be applied to any sport, whatever it is you do. We get real, we get honest, and we're looking forward to what is still to come!
