Show Notes
Join the conversation with one of the most decorated American distance runner Lauren Fleshman as we discuss the mission that drove her to write her NYT’s bestselling memoir Good for a Girl: A Woman Running in a Man’s World. We talk about how to write when you have a big story to tell, how to write when depressed, and why it’s okay to move on from something that has been your calling. Enjoy!
