Listen "Running Your Own Race: Setting Authentic Goals for Success"
Episode Synopsis
Setting goals isn’t just about achievement—it’s about building confidence, resilience, and a sense of purpose. In this episode, I share how training for my first marathon helped me turn my life around during a difficult time, and why breaking big goals into smaller steps can make them feel more achievable. I also dive into how to set goals that truly align with your values, rather than external pressures or doubts from others.Plus, I challenge you to set a meaningful goal for yourself this week!📩 For coaching inquiries, email me at [email protected]📲 Connect on Instagram: @ThroughEnduranceWeConquer📖 Download my free Couch to 5K Running Guide at MeloRunning.com🎧 Tune in and remember: It’s through endurance that we conquer!Sources:Deci, E.
