305. What to Do When You Hit the Wall
Sometimes it’s during a marathon when your body just says “no more,” but other times, it’s just life that stops you cold.
You lose motivation, faith, or direction — and it feels like there’s no way through.
But what if the wall isn’t the end? What if it’s actually the path?
In this episode of Running Lean called “What to Do When You Hit the Wall,” I’m talking about how to face the hardest moments in your life and find the strength to move through them.
Whether you’re struggling in your running, your health, or just life in general, this episode will help you reframe those challenges and see them for what they really are — opportunities to grow stronger, wiser, and more resilient than ever.
This one’s honest, emotional, and powerful — don’t miss it.
