Self-Care, Mental Health & Being a Strong Mama with Robin Arzón

Robin Arzón talks about discovering the magic of endorphins, why women and mothers shouldn’t feel ashamed about being strong, and how self-care isn’t selfish.

After starting her career as a litigator, Robin Arzón made a major pivot and became the VP of Fitness Programming and the head instructor at Peloton. She is also an ultra marathoner, the bestselling author of Shut Up and Run, and a very proud mama to her daughter.

She recently released her first children’s book, Strong Mama, which she wrote while pregnant. We talk about discovering the magic of endorphins, why women and mothers shouldn’t feel ashamed about being strong, and how self-care isn’t selfish.

Show Notes

  • As a litigator, Robin developed the confidence to move away from her role as a lawyer by building up her lifestyle as an athlete

  • The "10 minute rule" is committing to doing something for 10 minutes, and you can quit after that amount of time, but you have to do it for 10 minutes

  • We can't prepare for big life changes on an empty tank, it's important to take care of ourselves to be able to make the best choices we can

  • When she became a mom, it became so much more important to Robin to only prioritize the opportunities that are a "hell yes" for her

  • It was important for Robin to take her parental leave, and she wants that to be normalized for parents everything to take that time when a child is added to a family

  • Coming back from leave, Robin got specific about what she needed from those around her who can help, and she relies on that support system while transitioning back into her role at Peloton

  • We deserve to prioritize our mental health and self care, and feeding our minds intentionally is integral to our personal growth
