209: Take the Hill!

Now if you and I are connected on social media – especially on Instagram, you have probably seen a post or two from me about running. I love running, especially running outdoors, and it’s a form of not only exercise but of meditation for me. 

 I’ve also shared some of my recent challenges with running thanks to a knee that wants me to slow it up a bit.

But overall, outdoor distance running is my thing, and while I do shorter runs during the week, for the past six weeks or so at the time of this recording, I’ve started going to the park near where I live here in Georgia each weekend and doing the beautiful five and half mile trail there. 

Now along this trail, there are plenty of trees and wildlife and lakes and just everything that you’d want to take in during a run. And there are ALSO plenty of hills – looooong and in some cases steeeeep hills. Because the trail is still new to me, I don’t know exactly when they’re coming, but I know they’re coming! And boy! Does my mind go through all kinds of changes as I start to approach them!

Notice that I said my MIND – not my body! My body, other than this knee challenge that I mentioned, is fine as long as I take it slow. But my mind??? The mental acrobatics that it goes through to convince me to stop before I get to that hill – and when that hill is in view – is remarkable!

So during this weekend’s run – as I dug in and ran up one of those many hills, I started to think about the hills we all face in our lives and in our businesses, and how many times we may either try to avoid them, give up when we encounter them, or get halfway to the top and turn back around. Can you relate?

So on this episode, I want to share some words of encouragement and a few reasons for women entrepreneurs to TAKE THE HILL in your business and life!
