This week's podcast combines therapy and running/exercise. Randy talks to two therapists, Ana and Karina, who both enjoy running. Each has completed numerous 5 and 10 k races, marathons, and half marathons. They discuss with Randy that treatment doesn't always take place on a couch; it might occasionally occur in the middle of a run.

This is your space to move your body, clear your head, and get real about life, mental health, and everything in between. Ana and Karina are running along side you, sharing honest conversations about mental health, stress, growth, and being human. No pressure. No perfection. Just one step at a time. Lace up, breath deep - Let's go!
