Ever had one of those moments where you just knew you had to do something—where what you experienced moved you so deeply, you had to provide opportunities for others to feel it too? That’s the kind of moment Andie had, and it's what sparked the beginning of the Running on Faith Project.

I’m so honoured that Andie joined me on the podcast to share the heart and story behind this powerful organization she founded. Over the past few years, I’ve had the absolute privilege of cheering her on from the sidelines as she’s poured her heart, time, and energy into building something that is changing lives, one step at a time.

Running on Faith Project partners with local temporary housing and recovery centers to offer learn-to-run and walking programs for individuals experiencing homelessness or navigating recovery. These programs offer more than just physical movement. They provide connection, purpose, and a path toward healing. It’s a beautiful reminder that movement can be a catalyst for transformation, both mentally and emotionally. Running on Faith Project was just awarded the Social Innovator of the Year for BC and Northern Canada, and they’re just getting started.
