This hit so many points for me. As a high-drive person I am thinking about like this like a road map going forward. Super super interesting and inspiring and I am now busy sending it to all my people as a gift for the new year.
I worked in a male dominated field (boat captain of ferries, tugs, worked marine construction) with many wonderful men and others who were stereotypically not so great. Chemistry grad and got into research, mostly stereotypically not so great men. And these conversations are a breath of fresh air on topics I’ve not had the opportunity to discuss with many people a way that was satisfying. Re-Barbie (!) I LOVE what you’re doing. Found this after reading Melissa Arnot Reid’s memoir, Enough (... more
I’ve been a fan and follower of Rebecca for over a decade now, so it was a foregone conclusion that I would listen to her podcast. But why should somebody else listen? Who needs another podcast about wellness or sports performance? And the reason to listen is because this podcast isn’t about that — not really. It’s about getting smart, capable, interesting people in a room and having an intimate conversation with them. How have they struggled? How have they persevered? What were the little victo... more
Rebecca’s show brings forth stories of unique individuals who are very inspiring, authentic, and interesting. She brings stories that are often hard to tell. I’ve been listening to the episodes on my runs and have really enjoyed them!
This podcast brings a lot more inspiration than just “for athletes”. I love the story telling. The deeper purposes and journeys of so many of her guests. Really can’t listen without taking some good things away. Really is worth the listen!
