#423: Self-defense and Safety while Running

Sarah and Maggie jump into an enlightening conversation with Jennifer Cassetta, a self-defense expert and 3rd-degree black belt in the martial art of Hapkido. In answering questions from the AMR Facebook page, Jenn shares: the ABCs of martial arts—and how to deploy them on a run; ways to bolster self-confidence and step into your power; how intuition (she calls it “internal GPS”) plays a huge role in personal safety; pointers on using pepper spray; and, how to release your “inner she-beast” when the situation calls for it. Maggie tells about returning to her beloved Orange Theory Fitness classes, then Jenn joins the show at 17:03.   When you shop our sponsors, you help AMR. We appreciate your--and their--support!
