hello,

Gabby Reece is a force—in sport, in leadership, and in how we love and parent. In this episode of The Wise Effort Show, she shares the formulas she’s dialed in over the years, the non-negotiable that keep her steady, and the radical flexibility that lets her ask, “Is it true?” and adjust with grace.

Listen and learn:

  • Why she sits in the paradox of giving well and being “selfish” for well-being
  • Formulas to keep a long-term relationship alive (including “shining eyes”)
  • What it means to be “ruthlessly selfish”
  • Gabby’s definition of excellence and strength
  • How Gabby parents three young-adult women
