Series 2: Episode 2
In this episode I'm happy to talk to the author of "Running For My Life - A Memoir: how I built a new me one step at a time"; the ex-lawyer, ex-PT, running and cycling Mum of 1, Rachel Cullen.
In this episode we talk about the highs and lows of social media, body dysmorphia and disordered eating, labelling of kids and their expectations, visibility and self-worth through image, and her relationship with running and cycling. This is a fascinating talk which I hope many will get some great insight from, so take a listen if you're struggling with self image, starting running, or need some motivation to get moving when you just feel a bit rubbish.
