Description

Today, we interview Grace Korley, Registered Yoga Teacher, social justice advocate, and future mental health counselor. We dive into parallels (and differences) between running and yoga, as well as mental health and social justice in sport. With Grace's wise words, this is a powerful conversation worth listening to!
We also dive into other topics, including:
-How Grace got started in running
-What led Grace into the mental health field and into yoga
-The role that mental health plays in sport and/or running
-Yoga's healing benefits, taking a trauma-informed approach, and powerful effects on our mental wellbeing
-Inclusivity, representation, and diversity in sport/running -- especially where we have room to improve in sports like running -- and in yoga
-What is currently bringing Grace joy in life -- and what lies ahead with her career/future
-What advice Grace would give to her younger self
-What being a Strong Runner Chick means to Grace

SRC Radio by Strong Runner Chicks aims to educate, empower, and connect women-identifying distance runners. We believe that there is no one-size fits all approach to running and that everyone has a story to tell. Through our podcast, we strive to further this mission through conversations with runners of all backgrounds, as well as leading experts on a variety of topics and coaches in the field.
