Lessons from Champions: Run Your Race

Welcome back to the Me, Myself, and HER Podcast! Today, Alicia Caldwell, LPC, shares part one of a four-part series of lessons she learned from watching the 2024 Olympic games.

Champion runners know one thing for sure: stay in your lane. The moment they start trying to run someone else’s race, crossing into another lane, or matching someone else’s pace, they risk everything they’ve worked for—disqualification, collisions, or even serious injury. This rule isn’t just for the track; it’s a powerful lesson, especially for us as women and girl leaders striving to lead and succeed in this marathon called life.

Episode Takeaways:

• Mental fitness is just as important as physical fitness in terms of endurance.
• Know what you are running toward, know what you are running for, and stay in your lane.
• Comparison is the thief of joy and will sabotage our ability to live authentically.
• Trying to run someone else’s race will cause us to stumble and hinder our progress.
• Focus on your lane and the journey you have been assigned to.
