Summary

We had the most fun and inspiring interview with one of our best friends in the whole world, Amelia Boone! Amelia is a world-class athlete with 4 world championships in obstacle course racing, a recent win at the Spartan Trail 100k World Championships, and numerous other accomplishments. Those accolades led to magazine covers and a public profile at times when she was working through an internal journey that couldn't be portrayed in glossy photoshoots. So what did Amelia do? She opened up, she got vulnerable, and she learned to love herself independent of her achievements.

Amelia is defined by courage. She talked to us about her treatment journey for an eating disorder, why she advocates for others fighting unseen battles, the importance of complete honesty, making athletics fun, and balancing that independence from external validation with a competitive (and fun) desire to CRUSH SOULS. Do you want to start 2023 with some HOT FLAMING INSPIRATION? Then this is the interview for you.

We love Amelia, and we can't wait for you to listen to this interview. Most importantly, we think that after you listen, you'll love yourself a tiny bit more, too. We appreciate you all so much. WOOHOO!
