Episode 40: Solo—New Systems, A Quantified Heart & Brain Training
In my latest solo episode and last one of 2020, I speak on the last couple of months in my personal life, getting engaged, stepping into alignment with my spirit, heart and higher self. I recently finished James Clear's Atomic Habits and I dive into some of the key takeaways and how this applies to my goal in 2021 of competing in an Ironman 70.3 triathlon next fall. How can this process be a way to consciously choose my identity and the systems that support that well beyond the the race itself. I share some notes on the MAF Method, Endure IQ and my first 5 weeks of cycling. I wanted to finish the year by also thanking everyone who has listened to the podcast, shared it and sent me a message, thank you!
