WE'RE BACK! In the first episode of season 2, Em dives into a personal experience that changed the way she approaches both running and life: collapsing 400 meters from the finish line of a race.

While it felt like a setback, it became a powerful lesson in resilience, failure, and avoiding the comparison trap. Em shares how this experience led her to reevaluate her goals for 2025 and shift her mindset.

Em explores the impact of failure—how it’s often seen as a setback, but can actually be the catalyst for growth. She shares insights on how she used this moment to fuel her goals, focusing on resilience, staying true to your own journey, and not getting caught up in what others are doing.


You’ll learn:

  • How failure can reshape your goals and drive you forward
  • The importance of resilience when facing challenges
  • Why the comparison trap can hinder progress and how to avoid it
  • How to set meaningful, authentic goals for 2025

Tune in for inspiration, perspective shifts, and strategies to harness failure as a tool for success in the year ahead.
