Talking about one of my biggest soapboxes once again… if you want to have a village, you have to be a villager.
I first heard this on the most peer-reviewed site out there, TikTok, and well, it stuck. I catch myself saying it to others or relating it to my own life all the time.
This past weekend, I got to see it lived out in the most incredible way! (In my ongoing attempt to be the most eloquently insufferable podcaster you listen to, yes, it relates to my running.) My village showed up for me as I ran my first full marathon with signs, noisemakers, and bikes chasing me down the course just to cheer me on. Those who couldn’t be there in person sent endless voice notes, texts of encouragement, and even answered my call to entertain me for 5k of the run.
Mad love to my village, I wouldn’t be half the person I am without you all.
If you’re feeling generous, leave us a little love with a rating or review on whatever platform you’re listening on!
