I am so excited to share this week’s interview. I talked to Meredith Atwood, who some of you might know better as Swim Bike Mom. She is a recovering attorney, motivational speaker and author of the newly released, Triathlon for the Every Woman: You Can Be a Triathlete. Yes. You. She is also the host of the podcast, The Same 24 Hours. Meredith lives in Overland Park, Kansas (for now!) with her husband and two children and writes about all things at MeredithAtwood.com. Her next book, The Year of No Nonsense, will be released December 2019. You can follow her everywhere at @SwimBikeMom. In this interview, we talked about Meredith’s books, overcoming addiction, depression and suicide, and some of the fears we have as moms. She also tells us about some of the fun things she’s discovered since her move to Overland Park, and I share my favorite places to get BBQ in the KC area. If you’ve never done a triathlon, or can’t fathom dipping a toe in the water, I still want you to listen. Meredith is real and passionate, and as we talk, you’ll learn why “just keep moving forward” has become a mantra that she lives by.

The dynamic duo of Sarah + Dimity dive into a conversation about triathlon with two enthusiasts: First is Meredith Atwood, a.k.a. SwimBikeMom, who is excited about the recent publication of the second edition of her book, Triathlon for the Every Woman. Meredith speaks candidly about how triathlon saved her from work stress and alcohol abuse. Nod in empathy as she details her first run (eight minutes), then laugh along with the trio as she describes her first swim session as an adult. Meredith reveals what triathlon taught her—and how it helps her accept her weight. Meredith and Dimity (also a triathlete) bond over praise of shorter races and women’s events. The second guest is Jackie Kahuna, a mom of two from San Diego who just celebrated the one-year anniversary of her first triathlon. Yet find out why she’s already completed a 70.3 (half-Ironman) event! Jackie and Dimity give guidance on getting used to clip-in pedals and toss around gear advice. Jackie’s enthusiasm for the variety of three sports is infectious. SBS + Dim talk books in the intro: Sarah raves about literary genius of The Virgin Suicides and extols The Winters (a modern reboot of Rebecca), while non-fiction-loving Dimity sings the praises of Pam Houston’s Deep Creek and On Desperate Ground. (Who knew she was fascinated by the Korean and Vietnam wars!?) SwimBikeMom joins the conversation at 19:50. Please help us out by taking a quick survey about our podcast.

Meredith Atwood is a mother of two and former attorney turned author, speaker, and 4X Ironman Triathlete. Her story prompted me to reach out to her because of what she's been able to accomplish and how she chose to take action on pursuing her dreams. It inspired the hell out of me to be honest. After reading her incredibly powerful story on SwimBikeMom.com, I knew I wanted to talk with her. And although this show is specifically for dads, her story is relatable to everyone who has ever struggled with their weight, confidence, or wanting more out of life but not knowing how to have it. Meredith freely shares her struggles with her weight over the years and how a chance lunch meeting and innocuous comment from her CFO turned into the catalyst for her epic life change; a change that prompted her to quit her career as a litigating attorney and start pursuing her passion for coaching and competing in triathlons. She says "In 2010, I was out of shape, addicted to alcohol, seriously overweight and lost in my own body, and mind, and world" and fortunately she was able to take a serious look at herself in the mirror (literally) and decide to take back her life. She shares the "spark" that ignited within her and how it changed the entire course of her life and the path she took to get there. Today, she's busy coaching clients, training for races, writing another book, being an active mom and helping men and women take back control of their health. She's also runs a Podcast called The Same 24 Hours, which is exactly what we all have and we discuss why some people use those hours to become better and why some don't. We actually share many of the same principles and philosophies on health and fitness and talk about some of the things wrong with the industry right now and what we're doing to change it.
He's back! We scheduled a podcast to talk about trail running and slow-packing, but as usual, Josh and I had a great chat about so much more: why we (as humans) crack self-deprecating jokes, why trail running can feel scary, what goals are really about, and more. We also have a CHALLENGE for you all! You won't want to miss out on the GIVEAWAY and the CHALLENGE at www.SwimBikeMom.com/giveaway or the group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/710277832509937/ Josh's new book, "I, Athlete" talks about awakening that ATHLETE inside of all of us - whether to acheive massive goals, or to just be the best version of ourselves. I really enjoyed this chat with Josh Mathe. Get inspired with his outlook, upbeat attitude and sage wisdom on all the things---yes, even medititation.
