#67 - Lauren Callahan went from not running to completing her 1st marathon, her first 50 miler, her first Ironman, another 50 miler, another Ironman, a 50K and a 100K all within 1 year!  If that's not amazing enough, she did it all at age 42 - after not doing much running before!

How did she transform her life?  She got her physical and mental health in order first.

Lauren will share how she did everything in this inspiring episode.  You're going to love her positive attitude, growth mindset, willingness to push herself to see what she is capable of, and her feeling that she can accomplish anything.

Lauren is a former therapist turned health and personal development coach for rockstar women in mid-life and beyond.

Obsessed with gut health and self-love as an utmost priority, she loves empowering women to find their new normal, and to discover that that new normal is AMAZING.

Lauren authored the book “Couch to 50 miles”, an inspirational story of her transformation journey from scarcity and survival to learning the secrets of nutrition, training, recovery, and inner peace–and to running ultras and IronMans and putting endless miles under her feet on the Wild Azalea Trail.

Lauren has acquired a number of certifications in addition to her masters in counseling and Level 1 training in IFS, including personal training, health coaching, ChiRunning, USA Triathlon, Yoga Instruction, UESCA Ultrarunning with specialization in Sports Psychology and Performance, and Reiki.
