5-MINUTE FRIDAY: Motivation Follows Action (Not the Other Way Around)
About this episode
Emily discusses motivation and mindset shifts while preparing for a month-long trip and marathon.
We’re back! In this 5-Minute Friday, Emily gets real about navigating the messy, anxious, and exciting headspace that comes right before leaving for a month-long trip to Australia and running the Sydney Marathon. Between late-night concerts, marathon taper phantom pains, and a packed travel schedule, one big question keeps coming up: How do you keep showing up consistently? Emily breaks down the two mindset shifts that keep her moving—even when motivation is nowhere to be found. Plus, she answers a listener question about how to achieve the ultimate slicked-back low bun without damaging your hair.
