Let's be real...too many of us are struggling with a sense of disconnect between who we are in our daily lives and our true selves. We feel like we no longer do the things that set our souls on fire, we have lost what makes us unique, we are bored, we are stagnant, maybe we don't even like ourselves anymore. Today on the podcast we talk about why that may be, including:

• The 3 reasons modern society has made us feel detached
• Why we need to think about our values more
• The power of daily intention setting
• The identity inventory
• The self absorption paradox
• The best ways to spend you weekend to feel like YOU again
• Why you need a bucket list + so much more

If you want to feel more aligned and alive, this episode is for you :)

Running might seem like a solo sport - something we do to clear our heads, hit a goal, or just survive another cardio session. But recently, a new kind of running culture has emerged: one built not on competition, but community. Enter the run club - part fitness, part social ritual, part emotional anchor for a generation craving structure, connection, and purpose. In today’s episode, we explore the quiet psychology of run clubs and why so many of us are drawn to group movement. Whether it’s about healing, identity, accountability, or just having somewhere to be on a Tuesday night, run clubs have become far more than just exercise. They’re spaces of transformation - not just for our bodies, but for our emotional landscapes.

We explore:
• The rise of run clubs as a cultural and social movement
• Connection, identity, and accountability through group movement
• Group belonging and the act of completing a challenge
• Are run clubs the new dating app?
• Run club exclusivity
• The social validation of ‘kudos’

Whether you’re a dedicated runner or someone who wonders why their local park is flooded with Hokas (other brands are available) - this episode is for you.
