I'm so excited to be celebrating episode 300 with you, my listeners and fellow Striders. Today, we are looking back at how True Stride began, how it has grown, and how much can change when we keep showing up with honesty
When I was growing up, asking for what you wanted was not seen as a good thing. It was considered impolite, as though you were putting somebody out or being an imposition. If someone offered something to you, then you co
Adversity has a way of showing us where we need support, even when we think we should be able to handle something on our own. Since moving to the farm, I have had plenty of moments that stretched me in new ways. Some hav
Pressure has a way of getting our attention. I don't always love how it feels in the moment, but I can't deny that it often brings me into sharper focus. When there's a deadline or a real sense of urgency, I start to see
I have been feeling waves of exhaustion, waves of energy, and honestly, a little out of rhythm as I settle into my new home. I'm only about 10 days into this move, and even though I'm excited and grateful, I've also had
Sometimes the smallest misplaced thing can stir up the biggest reminder. A set of keys on a walking path, a phone left behind in a restroom, or eight tiny screws tucked away in a "safe place" can all feel like inconvenie
Life has a way of reminding us that we are not meant to carry everything alone. This past weekend brought that lesson into focus for me as I coordinated a big move from St. Augustine to Georgia, with belongings spread ac
I was recently reminded how hard it can be for some of us to receive, especially when we are used to being the giver. A young woman I love shared a story about borrowing a dress from her cousin, only to have her cousin o
I am getting closer to closing on my future home, and I feel like I'm being invited into something much bigger than a property transaction. The sellers have cared for this land with so much love, intention, and respect t
Thank you, Striders. The response to last week's episode really moved me. The shoutouts and questions that came in reminded me of why these conversations matter so much. Last week we talked about the things in life we ar
My dear friend's son, Doston, just got a German Shepherd puppy. She is small, curious, and already testing boundaries in all the ways puppies do. It is that early stage where behavior is still forming, and it would be ea
There are moments when something finds you at just the right time. A quote, a phrase, a random text from someone you love, and it lands in a way that you weren't prepared for. That happened to me this week. A loved one s
Getting knocked off your feet has a way of bringing everything into focus. Whether it's a physical setback or something deeper on an emotional level, those moments where you feel depleted can leave you wondering how long
I just got back from the most beautiful weekend workshop called Celtic Medicine Storytelling, and I have to tell you, I didn't fully know what I was walking into when I signed up. What I walked away with has been sitting
As we approach springtime, I can already feel that anticipation and anxiety. This idea of okay, let's get ready to rush, let's get ready to move fast. This wanting, this desire to move out of the waiting place. Because w
As a follow-up to last week, I chose to attend my friend's 50th birthday party and go all in on that experience, and I'll tell you what, it totally paid off. We danced, we laughed, we had some sentimental moments. It was
Have you ever said yes to something that felt like a full-body, no-doubt-about-it yes and then almost immediately, another opportunity showed up that you were equally excited about? That has been my world lately. And hon
There are moments in life when something can feel completely right and heavy at the same time. That's the space I've been sitting in lately. We recently sold our camper van, and while I know this decision aligns with whe
I've said the phrase "I'm a really lucky gal" for most of my life, and interestingly, I often say it right after someone tells me no. Not because rejection feels good, but because somewhere along the way, I stopped belie
The past week felt like it stayed with me longer than I expected. After getting back from New York and everything surrounding my Aunt Ronnie's service, I noticed I was still sitting with that feeling of surrender I talke
