Feeling mentally exhausted… even when your body looks fine?
Sometimes the hardest part of running isn’t physical — it’s emotional.

In this episode of The Runner’s Sole Podcast, podiatrist and runner Sharon Miller sits down with relationship architect, life coach, speaker, and author Benjamin Tagoe to explore the powerful connection between physical health, emotional wellbeing, stress, resilience, and mindset.

From burnout, motivation dips, and mental fatigue to recovery, movement, and building healthy habits, this episode dives into how our bodies and minds constantly influence each other — both on and off the track.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, struggling with consistency, or trying to rebuild your confidence after setbacks… this episode is for you.
