In this episode of The Cowbell, we sit down with the electrifying Emma Rose – psychologist, ultra-runner, and mother – whose journey into running started as a way to heal and evolved into a movement for change. Emma shares how she went from avoiding cross-country races in school to running 180km in a tutu to raise funds for paediatric hospitals.
We dive into the mental resilience needed for ultra-running, the power of movement in mental health, and how embracing imperfection can lead to extraordinary achievements. Emma’s story is a testament to grit, passion, and the belief that movement isn’t just about running – it’s about transformation.
