I’m so excited about this episode with Gwendolyn Bounds, author of a book that caught my attention called NOT TOO LATE – THE POWER OF PUSHING LIMITS AT ANY AGE. Wendy had a life changing transformation when she became passionately involved in obstacle course racing starting in her late 40s. Like many of US, Wendy had a successful career before she started this new chapter... as an award-winning journalist, an on-air host, and author of many books. Listening to Wendy’s book (which she reads), it feels like Wendy was REBORN with a passion that’s inspired the book, and all kinds of activities surrounding it. This book has been the catalyst for personal introspection, added workouts, and meaningful conversations with my wife. The Stubbornly Young will love this episode - and Wendy's book!
