Another Mother Runner

#429: Stress Management Advice from a Psychologist

Sarah and Dimity explore the downs—and ups—of stress with clinical psychologist Chloe Carmichael, Ph.D., the author of the upcoming book Nervous Energy: Harness the Gift of Anxiety for Success. Dr. Chloe offers (free!) advice on how to:

deal with uncertainty, especially during the pandemic;

quiet your thoughts and fall asleep;

know when it might be time for a break from your running (or your motherhood!) routine;

select a professional for virtual therapy (and when you should); and,

go for a run with your mind!

Nuun-drinking game? Chug every time you hear the phrase “high functioning!” Dr. Chloe hops on at 12:58.

A family of three podcasts to get (+ keep) you moving without losing your family, job, or sanity! Nearly 1,000 (!) back episodes to enjoy.

Every Friday on the original show (launched in 2011), host Sarah Bowen Shea, a mom of three and veteran of 14 marathons, is joined by a rotating cast of co-hosts and often a guest expert to discuss topics ranging from how to reach a big race goal to finding your athletic happy place, and everything in between. Training, nutrition, motivation, mental toughness, TMI issues: This show covers it all (and then some!). 

Many Happy Miles and AMR Answers drop on alternate Tuesdays: Many Happy Miles is hosted by AMR co-founder Dimity McDowell and Sarah Wassner Flynn, and it celebrates and explores all types of forward movement, whether an epic hike, century ride, or your first brisk walk after a setback. The co-founding duo of Sarah and Dimity host AMR Answers, providing insightful responses to listeners’ called-in questions. All three shows are witty and conversational, making them great running partners because the AMR gals do all the talking—even on the uphills!
