Summary

It's here! It's happening! Introducing the very first episode of the Run, Selfie, Repeat podcast! For my first episode, I wanted to talk about getting started when you don't really know what to do. How to take a leap or faith or a first step when just getting started feels impossible. And what better story to illustrate the topic than the story of how Run, Selfie, Repeat was born?

and it was freezing cold. It was 20 degrees. And I wanted to make her laugh. And my sister being the

genius that she is, she knew I had something and she suggested

we make it a BuzzFeed community post. So we did. And the next thing I knew, I was on the phone

And it took a long time to build and develop.

1:48.2

But taking that leap of faith and becoming a blogger is one of the best decisions I ever made in my life.
