The RMA Podcast. Episode 17. Acceptance & Change. Navigating a new journey with Jody Mullen.
Jody Mullen came to Australia from Chicago illinois in 2013. Having grown up in the USA all her life, we talk about what it was like living and training in the USA, her experience of her first marathon and the transition moving to a new country. We discuss how Jody continued her running journey by making new connections in Australia. We discuss how running unites us and we also talk about Jody's journey with a devastating injury (External Iliac Artery Endofibrosis) which has changed her running journey, and her perspective on running in general. We talk about the emotions that come, and navigating acceptance and change when one's journey is forced onto another path. Jody is a running coach, and an RMA coach and we also chat about how this change in perspective has enhanced her love for working with women in our sport to support them on their journeys which has been the most refreshing time of all.
