Listen in as Elaine Hartrick and I discuss how chasing big and audacious goals, as well as embracing a mindset shift, could help unblock the road to a world with cleaner and greener energy and products. She is a part of a small group of women, called the 7 Continents Club, who have run a half or full marathon on every continent of the world. YES, that even means Antarctica! After coming out of an abusive relationship she sold everything she owned and ventured into the world to chase this dream of hers of running a half marathon on every continent. Elaine is one of the most inspiring women I know and has made a career out of working one-on-one with people to achieve their goals in life and business.

Elaine is now a dynamic and sought after speaker, life and business coach, mentor, and author where she shares what she learned from her experience of grabbing life by the horns and doing what you want and love. She has helped some of the most successful C-Suite executives navigate their life and work through her inspiring and compelling lectures on achieving your “End Game Goals.” She is a Vigor Award Winner, which is given to people for their “selfless efforts to enhance the lives of people around them, through their unrewarded volunteering or humanitarian work, or by their acts of valor in extraordinary circumstances.” She has also been featured on various news outlets and magazines such as Global News and Women’s Running Magazine.

Elaine’s next adventure involves her taking her skills down to St. George, Utah where she is the new General Manager for one of the top fitness resorts in North America, called Movara. One of my favorite parts of our conversation was when Elaine described to me that there is a direction correlation between people who are chasing their dreams and their level of love and appreciation that they have for the environment. Those who are deeply passionate about making a difference in the world are more often then not also very conscious of their environmental impact. As we all strive to make a genuine impact on the world, we will inevitably make the world cleaner and greener.
