Ali on the Run Show14 Okt 2022

573. Ask Ali!

"I get overwhelmed, I get stressed, I put a lot of pressure on myself. I have high expectations for myself. But my 'why' is wanting to do my best. My why is wanting to be a good example for Annie. If I'm going to spend any time working and away from my daughter, I want it to be for a good reason."

Welcome to Ask Ali, the series where I answer all of your questions. This time around, I'm flying through 26 listener questions, sent in via Instagram Stories (I'm @aliontherun1), about podcast, running, motherhood, Halloween, purple M&Ms, laundry detergent (?), and so much more.
