Beyond Should: women reinventing their lives, careers & owning their power

This week, we’re pulling a fantastic episode from the podcast vault: 

Lucy is joined by a group of extraordinary women who recently completed The Great World Race — running 7 marathons on 7 continents in 7 days.

It’s hard to believe that Becs Gentry, Jenny Simpson, Chirine Njeim, Hillary Kupish and Ashley Paulson didn’t know each other when they started running, but this experience bonded them like nothing else as they supported each other to and through their limits over the course of the race. With many of them even winning awards for their finish times!

In this conversation, Becs, Jenny, Chirine, and Hillary share how they decided to run this race and everything they yielded from making it to the finish line together. We dive deep into the expansive mindset, the grueling reality, and the lasting impacts. They also offer the pearls of wisdom they’re taking away from their once-in-a-lifetime event.

Enjoy this episode and we hope you love it as much as we do!

What is Beyond Should: women reinventing their lives, careers & owning their power?

Beyond Should is a podcast about breaking down the barriers of our “shoulds.”

“I should stay in this job… I should take that meeting… I shouldn’t say how I really feel… I should, I should, I should.” Sound familiar?
But what if everything powerful, beautiful, true, and authentic lives on the other side of should?

Hosted by Lucy Reynolds, certified coach and founder of The Murmuration Collective, Beyond Should invites listeners to stop living in their “shoulds” and start naming, claiming, and pursuing what they deeply want. Through stories, wisdom, and candid conversations with inspiring guests — thought leaders, creative minds, advocates, artists, entrepreneurs, and storytellers — each episode explores courage, self-trust, asking for help, embracing failure, and stepping into a more vibrant, authentic way of living.

Expect laughter, honesty, vulnerability, and the occasional f-bomb as we challenge cultural conditioning, shed inherited expectations, and reclaim personal power.

Because when we show up boldly, we elevate not only our own lives — but the world around us.

Beyond Should premieres on Tuesday, March 10th in honor of Women's History Month. New episodes will be out every other Tuesday.
