Description

TWO Weeks...Global...Infinite Connections. Generate new ideas, and discover fresh perspectives by simply moving your body. ABOUT: Let’s go for a “Walky Talky” together. 👟 Walk Leader: Sarah O'Sell | Founder, Anim8 Collective How it works: We pair you and another walker and give you each 60 minutes to help the other unstick something about their professional or personal lives. How should you ask for that promotion? What should you tell that friend who’s too needy? Are you on the right track with that side hustle? Nothing’s off limits here. The goal is simple: To move your body to fuel your mind, connect more fully with yourself—and others—by connecting with the world outside. Studies show you’re twice as creative while out walking as you are slumped behind your desk. And you need those big ideas to make the most of your big life.

Mel's latest lovechild is modern walking club Loop, named after the Dutch word for "walk" (a nod to her love of Dutch culture) and an inside joke with her husband—they've been "taking a loop" around their Queen Anne neighborhood for their daily walk since 1994.
