Post Run High

Post Run High is a podcast about honest conversations that happen when people slow down and let their guard drop.

Hosted by Kate Mackz, the show brings together founders, creators, athletes, artists, and thinkers to talk about performance, identity, pressure, and the moments that shape who we become. Recorded after a run, walk, or shared movement, these conversations tap into the clarity that often comes when the body is tired and the mind is open.

This isn’t a show about success on paper. It’s about what people carry behind the scenes — how they cope with doubt, navigate change, stay disciplined, and keep going when things get hard. Post Run High is a space for reflection, perspective, and real insight you can take into your own life.

Dr. Dana Lebo is a performance psychologist with over 30 years of clinical experience, a lifelong runner, and a clinical hypnosis expert (President-elect of the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis).

In this episode of Post Run High, Kate sits down with Dana for a deep conversation about performance, resilience, and what happens when both the mind and body hit the wall.

Dana shares her firsthand experience of falling and breaking her arm at mile 12 of the New York City Marathon—and the mindset that helped her recover, return to racing, and keep moving forward. From elite marathon strategy to everyday mental health, this conversation explores how movement unlocks clarity, emotional regulation, and psychological breakthroughs.

You’ll hear Dana break down her MVP Method—Mindfulness, Visualization, and Positive Self-Coaching—and how these tools are used by elite athletes, CEOs, and high performers to push through physical limits, manage anxiety, and reframe setbacks.

This episode covers:
• What really happens mentally when runners “hit the wall”
• Why movement can be as powerful as traditional therapy
• How visualization actually works (and what people get wrong about it)
• The role of clinical hypnosis in performance and recovery
• Why aging doesn’t have to mean slowing down
• How to build mental resilience without relying on medication
• Why running—and moving—creates deeper human connection

Whether you’re an athlete, a high performer, or someone navigating a hard season of life, this episode is a reminder that you don’t have to be perfect to keep going—you just have to keep moving.

Closing Remarks and Season Break

After 56 weeks, dozens of guests, and one full season of Post Run High, Kate and Jeremy sit down to reflect on what actually changed.

In this season-ending conversation, they look back on a year of movement-fueled interviews — what surprised them, what didn’t work, and what it really took to build a podcast from scratch. They share how Post Run High grew out of the Running Interview Show, why movement consistently leads to more honest conversations, and what they’ve learned from talking with founders, athletes, artists, journalists, and performers.

Together, they unpack the biggest themes that emerged across the season: discipline before glamour, reinvention as a true superpower, and how movement helps navigate both success and setback. Kate and Jeremy also look ahead to Season 2, sharing what’s next for the show alongside personal life updates, including marriage and major transitions.

A reflective, behind-the-scenes conversation about consistency, curiosity, and why some of the best insights come after the run.
