What is so important to you, what are you so passionate about, that you would put aside your everyday life for months to pursue that passion, to fight for that cause? My special guest today did exactly this: Liz Warner is running 30 marathons in 30 countries with the goal of raising over $100,000 for local NGO's (non-governmental organizations) that support women and girls in those countries!

In today's episode of The PurposeGirl Podcast, Liz talks about:

What motivated her to take on this incredibly impressive feat.
Some of the internal struggles she endured in pursuing this, including acceptance of the unknown and a recognition that she was going to fail along the way.
How she chose the local organizations that she is supporting.
Some of the NGO's she supports, including Free to Run (Afghanistan), Empower Her (Côte d'Ivoire), and She Is Egypt (Egypt).
Examples of sexism she faced running marathons in countries around the world.
How each one of you can help her reach her goal!
