Matt Johnson is an ultra runner, veteran and literal comedy show in human form. We sit down 5 weeks after his "Run Across Texas" which was 841 miles of running -- completed in 17 days, 9 hours and 3 minutes. This idea came to Matt 13 months prior to the run. We unpack the details of preparation as well as get a glimpse of the experiences on the road. Matt chose to complete this to raise funds for Valorfit, a nonprofit organization for veteran aid (link below). He approaches each topic with a level of vulnerability and honesty that is nothing short of inspiring... as if the feat in itself wasn't enough. Stay tuned with Matt's social media (link below) to get updates for the documentary film releasing in 2025.
Thank you Matt. It was an honor to host this conversation.

Julia Rene is an IFBB Wellness Pro and Founder of Know Your Power. Her brand includes a podcast, coaching business, retreats, and products like her morning guided journal. She is in her twenties and has built an incredibly consistent and sizable personal brand with a TON of content coming out across platforms consistently. What started as desperation to no longer stay in the career she thought she would love has turned in to so much more today. Julia is an example of consistency over the course of time compounding in to success paired with a trust in her inner knowing of how she needs to show up and a detachment from others opinions along the way. This podcast episode should leave you feeling empowered -- just as we both hope for you.
