Melissa Perlman is a fierce force in both public relations and long-distance running. As the founder of BlueIvy Communications and a decorated athlete who just crushed the 2025 Boston Marathon’s professional division (finishing 57th overall and 10th in the masters category!), Melissa is the definition of high-performance. In this episode, we dive into how she balances elite athletics with leading a thriving PR firm, what fuels her drive, and how she’s represented Team USA across the globe. From fitness tips to public relations insights, mental discipline to global competition, this is a conversation packed with motivation for your next sprint - whether it’s on the track or in your career - or a little of both.
