The following podcast is a Dear Media production.

You're listening to the Wellness Herway podcast. I'm your host, Gracie Norton, and I'm so excited

to provide you with the space where you get to shape what wellness feels like to you.

Wellness Her Way is where we make a home of our body, mind, and soul instead of jumping on trends

for short-term results. We've got one body. We're going to nourish it, love it, respect it, and

embrace it through all its forms. Hello and welcome back to another episode of Wellness Her Way.

Today we are with my dear friend Brooke Johnson. I'm so happy to have you here.

excited to catch up. Brooke and I have known each other for how many years? It's like seven

seven or eight years. Literally since I started Instagram basically. Insane. So we met back in

LA but one of the reasons I'm extra excited to have you here is because you just set the world record to be the first girl to skate across America. Yes. It's crazy. Insane. I can't believe these words are coming out of my mouth, but honestly, if there's anybody where I'd be sitting here and being like, yeah, she did it, it would be brooded. Thank you. I didn't even, like, when I met you, I never even considered skating across America. It was like not something I had in my, like, foresight at all. Yes, we're going to get into all the details of how it came to be. But yeah, you guys, ever since I met Brooke, one of the first things that I noticed about her, I think we met at like Earth Cafe. Do you remember that? We were having like lunch. And I was just like,

she's down for anything. things that I noticed about her. I think we met at like Earth Cafe. Do you remember that? We were having

like lunch. And I was just like, she's down for anything. Like I could say like, hey, this is like what we're going to go do right now. And you'd be like, yeah, say no more. Like let's just go do it. And I think something that like, yeah, just like drew me to you right away was that like you are so fearless. And it's not like the sense of like, oh, there's like an absence of fear, but it's like,

fear can be. you right away was that like you are so fearless. And it's not like the sense of like, oh, there's like an

absence of fear, but it's like fear can be present, but you're going to do it anyway. You know what I mean? And I think that's like when I think about fearless and like what it means to embody it. It's like, not that something's not scary, right? It's like you're acknowledging like, yeah, this is going to be scary. This is going to be hard. But like, I'm going to move past that fear and I'm going to do it anyway.

So I really, really admire that about you and since the day that I met you I was like you've always been that person and had that spirit so I just love you for that thank you oh my god no one's ever said that about me. Oh, my face.
