Connect and Rise on our second episode with the amazing Robin Smith, competitive mid-distance runner, mom, and wife. Robin returns to tell us more about her journey and the conversion of thought needed to break through your own barriers or those that may be placed on you by others. She describes some of her most difficult challenges in life (including being in an abusive relationship) and how she was able to find her way out. She is strong, brave, and a leader for all of us, especially if we are facing a struggle that may seem insurmountable. Robin says, "If I can do it, so can you." Robin also remembers her sister as she faces the first anniversary of her passing and we pause to reflect on how short and precious life is. The time is now, friends. Don't miss this episode.
