Episode 196 - Overcoming Challenges and Finding Strength Through Running

In this episode Theresa Russell shares her inspiring journey from being a single mother at 17 to becoming a successful entrepreneur, coach, and marathon runner.  Despite lacking athleticism as a child, Theresa found her passion for running later in life and has since completed multiple half marathons and a full marathon. We talk about the importance of stepping out of our comfort zone and taking on challenges, whether it be in school or in life. And about having a positive attitude towards failure and how it can lead to new opportunities and growth. As a coach for women going through perimenopause and menopause, Theresa also emphasizes the importance of movement and eating right in controlling symptoms. She runs challenges in a private Facebook group to encourage accountability and support (https://www.facebook.com/groups/easethrumenopausenaturally). Theresa shares her experience with overcoming fears related to certain races and staying motivated by inspiring others. Running has helped her cope with stress during difficult times, such as when her father was sick. Her next running goal is to run the Berlin Marathon in September. Her journey is a testament to the power of resilience and perseverance in overcoming challenges and finding strength through running.The book Theresa is featured in - Global Conscious Entrepreneurs: 49 Entrepreneurs Changing the World  https://a.co/d/3Kwk04A Theresa’s Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/theresalesterrussell/  Theresa’s Tips - good shoes and socks and a running bra (& use an anti-chaff) https://fitmindfitbody.co/podcast/
