This summer has been a lot. I've personally experienced some unexpected losses that I've had to process, compound that with the normal stresses life, being an adult, and the external forces with feedback that is always on. Let us not forget, here in the US, I'd venture to guess that we are entering what is shaping up to be a very stressful 40 day cycle. All a perfect recipe for emotional burnout. I have no doubt that I'm not alone in this feeling. It is in that spirit that I asked my friend Jessica DeAngelo, the creator of the Hike 31 Challenge to partner with me to give us all a break. She created this challenge first for herself, then realized that it could really benefit others. Never one to simply be satisfied with a simple explanation that she felt better, she went looking at the science as to why she felt better, perfected the practice, and started teaching this to others. This challenge is open to everyone. We are attempting to create the largest Hike 31 Challenge she's ever done. Listen to today's episode for the information as to the what, how and why of the challenge. https://lnkd.in/gGXYZ88t Please join us on October 1st when the challenge starts.

This is not the post I had planned for today, but one I think is important to say. Two years ago I had the honor to interview an incredibly brave woman by the name of Nicole Phillips. She shared with me her journey through depression, her survival of a suicide attempt and her treatment thereafter. It was transparent, emotional and a testament to her courage. It's a story that to this day has helped many through some incredibly dark days. Sadly, her family has informed that she has lost her battle with depression. When I asked what I could to support them and honor Nicole, they asked me to keep reminding people, especially women, that they matter. Here is your official reminder. Regardless of your background, circumstances, bank account, education, religion, ethnicity, who you love- all of it- YOU MATTER. Check on your friends and check in with your colleagues. Don't assume everyone is ok just because they pretend they are. Offer a stranger a smile or a kind word at the store. It costs you nothing. Everyone is going through something. And be kind to yourself. You are more amazing than what you give yourself credit for. I appreciate you all.
