   I Am a Feminist

   Episode 87 – I Am a Feminist I Am Self-ish Podcast In this episode, Will Wright says something plainly and without qualification: I am a feminist. Will explains what that word means to him and why it has become an important part of how he understands his identity, his work, and the community he wants to build. He describes feminism as a belief in full social, political, and economic equality, and he pushes back on the idea that equality requires making someone else smaller. For Will, feminism is not about being anti-man. It is about challenging the systems, expectations, and behaviors that limit people from being fully human. The conversation also becomes deeply personal. Will reflects on years of feeling like he was always in the wrong room, constantly adjusting himself to fit the space around him while never feeling completely true to who he was. Finding language for what he believed helped him understand something that had been there for a long time. No one should have to shrink, hide, or apologize for who they are in order to deserve dignity, opportunity, or respect. Will also speaks about the pressures men face, including expectations around strength, vulnerability, and mental health, and why he believes those struggles can exist alongside conversations about equality. This episode also connects to the larger mission of I Am Self-ish. For Will, putting yourself first is not about disregarding other people. It is about giving yourself enough permission to question what you were taught, understand what you actually believe, and live in a way that feels more honest. Will is no longer interested in telling a smaller version of his story to make other people comfortable. This is part of that story.

   Built From the Inside

   Episode 86 – Built From the Inside I Am Self-ish Podcast I do not coach because I have everything figured out. I coach because I know what it feels like not to. In this episode, William Wright gets personal about the real reason he does this work and why the idea of a “perfect” coach can be so misleading. William shares how his own experiences with anxiety, depression, body dysmorphia, identity, and purpose shaped the way he understands coaching. He explains that coaching is not about giving someone a formula, telling them what to do, or pretending to have all the answers. For him, coaching is about creating space. Space to think. Space to tell the truth. Space to hear yourself more clearly. Space to be challenged without being judged. William also talks about why this work is so personal. There was a time when he did not have a safe place to put his own pain, shame, and questions. That experience became part of the reason he created the I Am Self-ish Podcast and built a coaching practice centered on choice, self-trust, and permission. He is also clear about something else: He is still doing the work too. Growth does not require perfection, and support should not be reserved for people who have already hit a breaking point. You do not have to wait until things get worse before asking for help. At the heart of this episode is the meaning behind SELF-ISH. Not selfishness as disregard for others, but permission to take up space, care for yourself, and stop abandoning your own needs. The podcast, the brand, and the coaching work all came from something William needed himself. Now, he creates that space for others. You do not need a perfect person to give you permission to start doing your own work.

   Episode 85 – Paces & Places More Than the Finish Line

   Paces & Places I Am Self-ish Podcast Running can be more than a sport. It can become a reason to travel, take a chance, meet new people, and discover what you are capable of. n this episode, Will Wright sits down with Noa Besner, marathoner, running coach, and co-founder of Paces & Places, to talk about how running became a portal to travel, community, and personal growth. Noa shares how she went from a non-athletic kid to completing 22 marathons around the world. Over time, races became less about simply crossing a finish line and more about experiencing new places, connecting with local culture, and creating memories around movement. That idea eventually became Paces & Places, a small-group race travel company built around challenge, connection, and discovery. Each trip pairs a destination race with curated experiences, training support, and a built-in community for runners of different paces and experience levels. Will and Noa talk about the nerves and excitement that come with a starting line, the difference between chasing a time and chasing an experience, and why support can sometimes be the thing that helps us finally take the leap. Noa also shares how the inaugural Paces & Places trip to Tromsø, Norway, brought runners together for the Midnight Sun Marathon and an Arctic adventure under 24-hour daylight. At the heart of the conversation is a simple reminder: You do not have to be an elite runner to do something bold. Sometimes the next race, trip, or challenge is not about proving something. It is about giving yourself permission to create a memory you will never forget. About Noa Besner Noa Besner is a longtime marathoner, RRCA-certified running coach, NYRR group coach, and co-founder of Paces & Places. After completing 22 marathons around the world, she created the company to combine her love of running, meaningful travel, and community.
