5-MINUTE FRIDAY: If You're Not Joy Spotting, You Should Be
Checking in four weeks out from the Sydney Marathon and reflecting on a foundational mental practice: joy spotting. After an off-feeling weekend interaction, Emily shares how she made a conscious choice to respond instead of react—focusing on present-moment joys like fresh journals, good coffee, homemade shakshuka, and time at the track. Plus, she answers a listener question from Anna about how to overcome intimidation and launch a podcast of your own. In This Episode: Sydney Marathon Countdown: Emily reflects on her training build as she gets ready to travel to Australia for the big race. The Power of "Joy Spotting": How to consciously steer your focus toward micro-moments of joy when stress or negative interactions try to take over. Responding vs. Reacting: Recognizing that your body can't always distinguish between physical and emotional stress, and why choosing how you respond is a superpower. Listener Q&A: Emily breaks down how she launched Hurdle in 2018, her go-to gear recommendations for beginners, and why consistency is the most important factor in starting your own show.
