  • Episode 469 - MM 166: Mindful Arm Swinging
    Apr 16 2025

    This week’s mindful moment is mindful arm swinging, a simple yet effective way to release tension and connect with your body. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and let your arms hang loosely at your sides. Gently swing them forward and backward, noticing the natural momentum and the way your shoulders relax. As you continue, sync the movement with your breath, allowing each swing to feel more intentional.

    This easy practice brings awareness to your body, promotes relaxation, and offers a refreshing reset during your day.

    Spend just five minutes with this practice, and see how it can bring calm and clarity to your day.

  • Episode 468 - Michelle Frost: Running 350km (ish) & Finding Joy in the Delirious Unknown
    Apr 15 2025

    In a delightful flip of roles, this episode brings you something special—Michelle Frost is in the hot seat, interviewed by none other than her daughter, Nikki, just days after finishing the epic Delirious West 200-miler. What unfolds is a beautiful, funny, and deeply honest conversation about what it’s really like to spend four days and nights on the trails, chasing dots, dodging frogs, navigating fatigue, and finding strength in unexpected places.

    From music that sparked trail dancing to micro-naps while running, Michelle shares the mental highs, the physical challenges (blisters, hello), and the emotional power of community, family support, and the “why” that drove her forward.

    This episode is for anyone who’s ever thought “could I?”—Michelle’s answer is “Yes. If I can, you can.”

    Key Highlights:

    •What it’s like to run for four days straight (and still be smiling!)

    •The mental rollercoaster—self-doubt, joy, and music as a mindset shift

    •Navigating logistics, gear chaos, and the power of a good crew

    •Why she kept going: family support, community love, and a little bit of stubbornness

    •Frogs, orb spiders, dirt naps… and the magic of trail friendships

    •A fresh take on recovery, resilience, and redefining what we think is possible
