I got an email this week that made me smile and then made me groan.

0:09.0

It's from Kim in Canada.

0:13.0

Kim is a registered nurse, mental health clinician in Ontario.

0:18.0

Kim used to be a runner, now walks a lot. Kim just discovered the podcast, loves it,

0:25.0

and is recommending the podcast to clients, which I love, which made me smile. And then Kim

0:31.1

mentioned my website, particularly a page on my website that I pulled it up and it's like, oh no, this is the

0:39.7

So each download represents a 10-minute walk.

1:42.0

And by the end of the year, I want to see if we can reach 1 million

1:45.2

walks. Every 10-minute walk you take counts toward that goal. And every time you share the podcast

1:51.0

or recommended to others like Kim, and they begin listening, and they begin walking, that also

1:58.4

moves us closer to the goal. And of course, the purpose here is to help

2:02.9

as many people move as much as possible, to begin a fitness activity using walking that sticks,

2:11.0

not just for a week or a month, but for a long time. And so, like Kim, when you share the podcast with others, perhaps you're introducing someone
