Chasing Dreams, Double Standards, and Somehow...Conjugal Visits (Couch Talks)

Amy and Kat share a listener email from Julia in Wisconsin. Julia is getting ready to hike 1,200 miles solo (a dream she’s been chasing for years) and she’s tired of people asking what her husband thinks about it. Amy and Kat talk about how to respond when people project their fears or outdated ideas about relationships onto your dreams, and why you don’t need to defend living a big, brave life. There are way more interesting questions like:

What is she going to eat?

Will she hike with others she meets along the way?

Where will she sleep?

What if you encounter a bear?

How often does her husband get to visit her?

We hope this chat offers some encouragement for anyone working toward something others might not understand. You don’t need permission to be proud of yourself. Also, Kat gets an update from Amy on the Face Fitness trial that she signed up for at the first of April.
