Summary

As we celebrate 10 years of the Pursuing Health podcast, I’m filled with gratitude—for where we’ve been and where we’re headed. What started in 2015 as a way to stay connected to the CrossFit community has grown into a space for conversations around all aspects of health—physical, emotional, and beyond. Looking ahead, I want to make this next chapter even more intentional and meaningful—and I’d love your help. What episodes have resonated most with you? What topics or voices do you want to hear more of? I’ll be sending out a few feedback opportunities in the coming months, including some one-on-one calls. If you’d like to be part of shaping what’s next, I’d love to hear from you. Thanks for being here—for listening, sharing, and growing with me. I can’t wait for what’s to come.
