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.

For nearly three decades, Norah O’Donnell has built a career defined by trust, resilience, and a willingness to ask the hard questions.

In this episode of Post Run High, Norah opens up about the woman behind the journalist—from growing up in a military family and getting her first television job at age 10, to becoming one of only three women in history to solo anchor a major network evening newscast.

She shares the career lessons she learned along the way, including what it took to break into television, how she handled being underestimated as a woman, and the moment she demanded equal pay for equal work. Norah also reflects on staying composed under pressure, building confidence when others doubt you, and why having the right people around you can change the trajectory of your career.

We also talk about the women who shaped her life, the hidden female figures she highlights in her new book We the Women, and why she is bringing the same rigor she has used throughout her journalism career to her new women’s health podcast, Healthful.

It’s a conversation about ambition, courage, knowing your worth, and using your voice—even when you’re told no.

Oksana Masters is one of the most decorated Paralympians in history, winning 24 medals across the Summer and Winter Games in four different sports. But behind every medal is a story of resilience unlike any other.

Born in Ukraine with disabilities linked to the Chernobyl disaster, Oksana spent her childhood surviving unimaginable conditions in orphanages before being adopted by her American mother at seven years old. In this episode, she opens up about the trauma that shaped her, losing both of her legs, finding purpose through sport, and why learning to start over became her greatest strength.

We also talk about:
Growing up in Ukrainian orphanages and the reality of surviving them
Becoming a 24-time Paralympic medalist across four different sports
The mindset that helped her rebuild after every setback
Why she didn't win her first gold medal until her fourth Paralympic Games
How she embraces starting over—and why it's become her superpower

Whether you're chasing a goal, navigating change, or rebuilding after life's hardest moments, this conversation is a powerful reminder that your past doesn't define your future.

For the first time, I'm sharing my journey into motherhood.

I start by opening up about what pregnancy was really like for me—both mentally and physically. From navigating the identity shift, to staying active, to the highs, the challenges, and everything in between, I wanted to share the experience as honestly as I could.

Then my husband, Jeremy, joins me as we tell our birth story together. We take you through the final days of pregnancy, labor, delivery, and what it was like meeting Vivian for the very first time. We also share the moments we haven't talked about publicly, what surprised us most, and how becoming parents has already changed us.

This is our most personal episode yet, and we're so excited to share it with you.
