Mari welcomes Courtney Schoch to How to #KeepGoing. Courtney is a pilot, runner, mentor, and inspirational speaker. Driven by a turbulent past, Courtney encourages others to harness the energy of fear and doubt into meaningful action and stresses the importance of mentorship by honoring everyone’s story regardless of their circumstances. She’s also the author of the wonderful book, This Is Your Captain Speaking: Reaching for the Sky Despite a Lifetime of Abuse, Depression and Fear.  In part one, Courtney shares why she believes your past shouldn't define your future, and why she's brutally transparent about her self-esteem issues and abusive relationships.
