GOAL setting! Off runnin' SMART into the New Year! We are kicking off week 50 of 2023 with a very detailed breakdown into how to set S.M.A.R.T. goals.

LET'S DO IT!!!

xo, Coach Karli

HAHAHA Hello F bombs!! Passionate chat here about not being everyone’s favorite flavor and THAT’S OK!! In fact, it’s beautiful!

A quick reminder, a shoutout, a strong affirmation in the mirror…

ALLOW yourself to BE YOU. 

Not at the detriment to others

But, be unapologetically, authentically, who you need to be to show up to make the world a better place: for yourself, your family, your friends, perfect strangers.

We need more good people in this world, and it can start with YOU.

Cheers!

xo, Coach Karli

Ooohh, we did it! And we had a BLAST!

Cold? Yes.

"Early"? Yes.

Were we a bit late? Also yes. haha

But worth it??! You bet! What a wonderful way to kickoff the Thanksgiving holiday. Family, friends, fitness, followed by food, more family, football, and just so. much. FUN!

Signing up next year? Absolutey!

The 'Runnin' My Mouth' Friday Funny installments are snippets of relatable content. Sometimes laughable, sometimes ridiculous, sometimes absurd, sometimes ludicrous, you name it.

An age old adage, "where there's a will, there's a way". If something is important to you, you will make it a priority and get it done. Conversely, if you do not see something as important or necessary to do/partake in, you will find something else to fill that time.

We need to do better in taking ownership for our own priorities instead of always using 'time' as the scapegoat.

Have you ever run a Turkey Trot? No?! WHY NOT?!

I'm totally serious. This is your call to action to go sign up...now!! Way too many benefits to outweigh the BS excuses as to why you won't/don't get out there.

Have FUN! Enjoy the fresh air! Donate to a good cause! Be an active participant in your local community!

Let's GO!! Happy Thanksgiving!

As a play on the many meanings of funny, "It's funny cuz..." Every. Little. Thing. Costs. Money. Legit, everything. It's obviously not truly comically funny, but instead annoying? Irritating? Depressing? Haha! Let's see if we agree on some things...

...and maybe you'll think twice about some 'spending' in your own life.

Pregnancy! What a crazy experience...well, concept really. We curate en entire human seemingly from scratch. Can we - err - are we 'supposed to' actually run during this wild process??

Tune in to hear my thoughts...

As a play on the many meanings of funny, "It's funny cuz..." my mind DEFINITELY goes THERE. No, not the dirty "there" hahaha. But, the safety "there". Is everyone OK? Is everyone healthy? Can I leave the room and feel confident there won't be any disasters? Is the gate locked at the top of the stairs? Is the stove on? Is there water in the bathtub? Did I leave a knife on the countertop?

The constant full mind of a Mom. It truly never ends! So I take proactive steps to secure my peace of mind for the everyday, mundane moments to ensure a bit of independence for everyone that can be trusted.

Do you do the same?

*Coming soon!

As a play on the many meanings of funny, "It's funny cuz..." in this case, that it generally seems so hard for people to understand that "No", genuinely means, "No". In today's quick hitting 'dynamic warmup' to your weekend...we chat about some boundaries we face as Mothers.

Always a good time, but especially unique to have the opportunity to invite my very own sister, mom of 3, Britt Ryan, on to the Runnin’ My Mouth show. Her unwavering confidence in motherhood is definitely enviable to many as she always seems to stand steadfast in her family’s needs and to demonstrate resilience in the face of any adversity that has emerged.

Of course we all look at and judge other people for who they are and what they do, but Britt seems to take it all in stride and allow space for all other moms to live their lives and parent the way they each feel is best for their families. I certainly wish that’s how all moms operated! Haha!

I’m sure each person who listens to Britt’s episode in its entirety will come away with a new perspective and respect for full time moms. Shall we say a LOT goes into raising multiple children? There are certainly no ‘vacations’ or ‘out of offices’ in this job.

How fun was this chat! My very own sister and highly experienced mom of 3 little ones 6 & under…so much to dive into, so little time. We touch on Summer schedules, regular life day-to-day, how to continually better yourself while being a fully focused, hands-on Mom, and best of all, motivation! If you still choose to sleep in or take extra time on the couch this weekend after listening to these next 15 minutes of experiential knowledge...I got nothin. Enjoy! 

& per usual, be sure to follow the Runnin’ My Mouth podcast right here to be alerted when Britt’s full episode drops on Monday.

An absolute delight to chat all things “momming” with Jodie Friedman. A fellow Mom with very similar (if not the same?) morals and values that I cherish in my own right, it was so great to give the RMM audience insight into what life can look like nowadays for women who strive to be wives and mothers and homemakers and to truly be proud of all that they do…which is a heck of a lot! Our families' worlds certainly wouldn’t turn if it weren’t for us…so cheers to that!

Enjoy this small excerpt from our full conversation and stay tuned for Jodie’s episode drop on Monday.

Coming clean on the RMM absence over the last 10+ weeks…

LOTS of major feelings.

SUPER highs, SUPER lows.

In today’s Friday Funny, I’m giving you a glimpse, a snapshot, into what’s been going on and the ‘reason(s)’ for the delay in publishing some stellar interviews/content these past couple months.

Forgive me, please, and if you can relate, please don’t hesitate to connect further. I will provide lots of resources in the description for my full episode drop on Monday.

Talk about a qualified speaker -- Becca Chilcz knows her stuff. Known as @thehormonequeen on Instagram, she is nothing short of an expert on all things related to chronic health symptoms and conditions for women as they pertain to hormones…we will definitely have to circle back to this chat for a part 2 very soon! Way too much juicy information to just cut it off for the sake of listener time. Be prepared to be highly intrigued for Becca’s full episode as you tune in to today’s Friday Funny preview.

A candid, real, and largely unedited conversation with Rachael Martin; a new Mom to her 6 week old baby, pediatric occupational therapist, and wife to a boundary pushing entrepreneur husband, she definitely knows how to remain neutral among the craziness.

By tapping into her professional skill set, she is able to feel more in control in her new role as “Mom”, and by tapping into her natural maternal instincts and intuition, she finds herself able to connect with her students and their families on deeper levels across the board.

It’s incredible what we can accomplish with solid support from our spouse, trusting ourselves, and constantly being open to learn new things.

Season 3 kicks off here with an awesome chat with an awesome person whom I’ve known pretty much as long as I can remember. As a devoted husband and father of 2, Craig Clemente really embodies dedication when it comes to life goals.

He’s a family man first and foremost closely followed by his work role as CEO of SCM. Craig’s love for athletics + movement and risk analysis + management serendipitously led him to a sheer epiphany while on a many hours-long solo hike out West where he realized new directions for his life that would forever change and serve his loved ones and a higher power.

This season 2 finale is graced by the presence of a real life superman...in my opinion at least. It was so fun to have the opportunity to chat at length about his athletic background, present life keeping fit, and future staying the course. Ladies & gentleman...Mr. JJ Saur.

JJ is a highly educated, longtime runner and competitive athlete, mastermind insurance executive, lover of travel...at least pre-pandemic travel..., wine enthusiast, proud father, rugged Legendary Whitetails wearing Jeep owner, lethal weapon AKA karate expert, & my favorite part? My husband.

With over 5 years of experience working in an NYC fertility clinic in midtown Manhattan, Kimberly Schamroth definitely has some wisdom to impart on anyone who is interested to learn. Drawing from both her textbook knowledge as well as her personal experiences with patients and peers, her insight sure is valuable. Kimberly worked hard to earn the title of Fertility RN, and it shows.

Thankfully for us, she has chosen to bring her education to the social media sphere...for free! Kimberly is currently running an instagram where she breaks down the 101 on all things fertility.

Bridget Duggan is a Believer, wife, mother, and sales consultant. She is passionate about living a clean, self sufficient life. She enjoys learning and getting back to the forgotten basics - wether it be a natural childbirth journey or making things from scratch, there are undoubtedly a lot of skills out there to be learned. Let no stone be unturned along the journey for truth and purity. Drinking distilled water? Check! 

When there’s so much substance, it’s hard to cap it all off with a time limit! Thankfully we have little ones who were up from their naps and needed us haha otherwise we probably would have chatted for another 2 hours. 

Life with friends who support you, educate you, challenge you, and promote you is just the best kind of life to live. As we’ve gone through our collegiate, professional, relationship, and now motherhood journeys, there have been (& will always continue to be) new ways to connect no matter how much time has passed since we last spoke. I will say, personally, my favorite is the mommy connection. There is something so powerful about healthy discourse in aaaaallllllllll the different ways one can choose to parent. And boy oh boy are there many ways. If you have taken the leap into this space called motherhood, you are well aware of the snarky remarks, passing judgments, fake support, and various ways you can be lead astray. 

But, once you do find the gems, the diamonds in the rough if you will, hold them dear, build that love & trust, and never let it go! Take it from me…

As a fellow dedicated Mom of two, Bridget Duggan certainly shares my passions for leading a healthy lifestyle. From recognizing how lucky she is to live in the land of opportunity and freedom to doing diligent research to keep herself and her family healthy, our conversation ran the gamut of "general life" topics.

In this excerpt of the full episode, we delve into the complexities of water; who knew! One of the most basic natural resources has become quite UNnatural, to say the least...

Brian Rosetti is a longtime runner, coach and tech entrepreneur. He founded both The Run SMART Project and V.O2, a coaching app for runners of all levels. Originally from Pennsylvania, Brian found himself running all throughout his childhood into the collegiate level in PA, then off to North Carolina to begin his career training at an even higher level, followed by a move into NYC to discover his passions for tech and coaching, and then finally back to PA to settle down with his family.

The Run SMART Project, the launchpad for the V.O2 platform, is a place where you can find a dozen highly qualified coaches, resources like a running calculator, and information on Dr. Jack Daniels (+ more resources!).

More specifically, V.O2 is going to take your running to the next level. With features including but not limited to: an automated coaching service to help you train intelligently with the Adaptive Trainer, coach supported service with a private coach, and an option for no coach support where you can get a race plan and reach your goal on your own terms. In all of these options you will have the opportunity to customize your training calendar/schedule with training days, off days, current mileage, and short/long term goals. Your training days can include specified running workouts (quality sessions), easy run days, cross training workouts (with lots of detail), and personalized notes for yourself or from your coach.

Hopefully this conversation with Brian provokes some further research and development for all levels of athletes and coaches alike. Enjoy!

Coming from a highly competitive running background, Brian Rosetti sure has a ton of experiential knowledge to bring to the table here. While he isn’t competing at a super high level anymore, his love for the sport continues by prioritizing his runs as purposefully scheduled pieces plotted in throughout the week further benefiting the rest of his life, coaching his masters athletes in the city, and on the tech side of things…

That’s right! Brian is a tech entrepreneur as well; he founded both The Run SMART Project and V.O2, a coaching app for runners of all levels. If you are a runner and you have yet to check out V.O2, what are you waiting for?! Seriously!

Who would’ve thought that spending 2 hours chatting about various forms of stress would be fun! Haha but I have to say, once you’ve come out on the other side of wildly challenging, inexplicable, life diversions that you didn’t plan for even in your wildest dreams…you certainly learn to appreciate the ins & outs of further self development and stress management… And some of us even go so far as to make a career of it!

From her childhood until now, Tonya has faced challenges with an open heart and mind and an attitude not of, “I can do this”, but instead, “I will conquer this”.

Expect to hear Tonya’s story, expertise, and commentary and then take a good look in the mirror to see how you may be able to take some small daily steps towards self betterment for the greater good of our whole society.

Be sure to follow The ‘Runnin’ My Mouth’ podcast right here to be alerted when Tonya’s episode drops on Monday.

This collection of excerpts from my conversation with Colleen Rehfuss will get you thinking about the power of Faith and how it may affect you, your loved ones, and strangers all differently. Everyone has their own relationships with higher powers out of their control. Have your morals, values, and ways of life ever forced you to choose between your truth and your job that pays your bills? What about where you've lived? Have you ever thought about how your surroundings may mold you into who you're becoming?

Colleen's upcoming episode gives you a firsthand account of how Faith over fear creates miracles and how your physical location does not have to define you; in fact, you will discover more about yourself when you shake up your environment. It seems to be true that your growth is determined by your willingness to experience more life.
