773. Emily Saul, Sports Psychology Coach, on End-of-Year Anxiety & New Year Goal Setting

"If we can move from a place of fear to a place of curiosity — from a place of resisitance to a place of learning — we'll get a lot farther. We'll enjoy the process a lot more if we can be in the space of learning and curiosity rather than fear and resistance." Fan favorite Emily Saul returns to the Ali on the Run Show to hold all of our hands as we navigate end-of-year stress and navigate new-year anxieties. Emily is a licensed mental health counselor, sport psychology coach, and founder of E Saul Movement. She's a former Division-1 collegiate rower, she's a lifelong athlete, she's a many-time marathoner, and she's a TEDxBoston speaker.
