Hey, fam. How is it going? I hope you had a great weekend. Welcome back to Pillars. I am your loving host, Dylan Bowman,

and this week we're keeping the hard rock theme going,

at least just for a little while longer.

Thank you for entertaining me.

I am thrilled this week to host a conversation

with Hard Rock Women's Winner, Sabrina Stanley, who is one of the most

athlete, but what really sets her apart is her mentality and her self-belief. She is an absolute

in service of your goals. In addition to talking about hard rock, we also discuss Sabrina's

background, Nolan's, her upcoming run at UTMB, and the goals that she has for herself in the future as one of the rising

stars in the sport. I think you all are really going to enjoy this conversation. Before we get to
