LegendsI’m absolutely thrilled to bring you all today’s episode with Hellah Sidibe! Hellah is one of the most positive, inspiring, and hard working people I have ever had the privilege to talk to. Hellah has been running every day, consecutively, for the last four years. In total, he has currently run over 1500 days straight! Hellah grew up in Mali, Africa, in a place where some people don’t even make a dollar a day. Recently, Hellah completed his first transcontinental run. He ran from LA to NYC in 84 days, totaling 3061 miles across the nation. In doing so, Hellah became the first Black person to ever complete a transcontinental in the US, and through partnering with Soles4Soles, was able to provide thousands of kids back in Mali with a new pair of shoes. Hellah is someone who genuinely makes this world a better place, his energy is unmatched and his commitment to living a healthy and happy life is truly motivating. This man is truly unique. In this episode we specifically discuss: 

• The origin of Hellah’s gratitude and happiness
• Hellah’s story, growing up in Mali and becoming a semi-pro soccer player, to becoming a transcontinental ultra runner
• How Hellah mentally prepares to run every day no matter the conditions and how he pushed past the mental block he experienced before starting to run during the transcontinental 
• We discuss how Hellah stopped making excuses and instead focuses on controlling the controllable
• Why Hellah went plant based and how he fuels his body and recovery with plants
• And how he became a creator and we discuss his love for the creative process

This man is truly a legend in every sense of the word. Connect with Hellah and follow his journey:Hellah's YouTube ChannelHellah's InstagramHellah's Website
