Fast approaching 1000 days of running, Savannah Sachdev is back on the podcast! In this conversation we discuss what Savannah's run streak has taught her about accountability and commitment to herself; we also spend some time reflecting on our 20s and the mindset shifts we feel as we enter our 30s and beyond. If you've felt yourself trapped in a comparison loop, hopefully this episode gives you some fresh perspectives to bring the focus back to your journey, and the joy along the way.
