Sarah goes it solo chatting with entrepreneur/writer/former pro runner Lauren Fleshman and her husband/pro triathlete/Picky Bars CEO Jesse Thomas—in front of an audience in beautiful Bend, Oregon. The married couple opens up about:-how years (and years!) of being competitive athletes shaped them as parents and partners;-how to be the best cheerleader for each other;-how to hone your own writerly voice (and the parallels between running + writing);-the truly challenging endurance “sport” of traveling with children;-why their on-again, off-again pre-marriage relationship serves them well today.And Lauren pulls back the curtain on her new writing routine—and the new book she’s working on!By shopping our sponsors, you help AMR.
