About this listen

For years, Cara Cunniff ran ultra-marathons, Ironman races, and even six days across the Sahara desert, and still couldn't see herself as an athlete.
In this honest conversation, we explore:• why so many of us feel “not good enough” even when we’re doing extraordinary things• the pressure of comparison, to others and our past selves• how identity shifts when injury, ageing or life changes• why movement means far more than performance• what self-belief actually looks like in real life
This episode is for anyone who moves, trains, walks, or simply tries, but still struggles to see themselves as capable.
It’s a reminder that you don’t need a medal to be a ‘mover’, you just need to appreciate yourself for keeping moving forward.
