A sampling of some of our highlighted eps – we’re kind of proud of these!
Milestone Moment: 50 Shades of Me
What do Caesar salads, MotorolaStarTACs, a traumatic childhood rollercoaster experience, being stung by a stingray, never pulling an all-nighter and always making sure to name a car have in common? They are just a few of the 50 Shades of CH that we are celebrating as we reach our 50th episode here on the podcast (sorry, ‘50 Shades of Grey‘ fans but this episode has NOTHING to do with the books or the films). Instead, tune in for some thoughtful reflections on some of the quirky, funny, heartfelt and entertaining moments that have been part of CH’s life journey thus far – all wrapped up in one episode. Whether you’re a longtime C17’er or tuning in for the first time, we’re pretty sure this episode will bring a smile to your face, maybe even a laugh or two, might even be a walk down memory lane, and is for sure an opportunity to get to know CH a bit more than you may have during the previous 49 episodes!

The Strongest Part is the Broken Part
What happens when enjoying one of your favorite hobbies turns into one of the scariest moments of your life? It becomes the inspirational source for a still-true life mantra. In a two-part series of episodes honoring the 10 year anniversary of this life changing event, CH reflects on how breaking her ankle while surfing ultimately helped her form one of her most important life mantras: the strongest part is the broken part.
Part 1 is CH’s vivid recount of the accident, and facing the immediate aftermath of both the emotional and physical challenges it caused.
Part 2 recounts CH’s resilient journey of embracing pain, reconnecting with the most broken part of herself – literally – and finding the strength and courage to move forward.

Ok Not Being Ok
Sometimes, we.are.just.not.ok. No matter the day, the month, or the year. Recorded in honor of Mental Health Awareness for 2024, CH recounts a key time in her life where prioritizing her mental well-being took precedence over celebrating a holiday, and how that moment further shaped her approach to prioritizing mental wellness on the whole not only for herself but in support of others.

Walking Through the Fire
“I’ll walk thru fire with you.” A great line from an upbeat song (thank you, Vicetone). Except … have you ever noticed not everyone is willing to do this? In this episode, listen to CH’s thoughtful share on the importance of finding and holding on to those who are willing to walk with us through our various life fires and help pick up the pieces when life cuts pretty deep.

Chair 17 (The Real Life Version)
What’s in a name? For us, it’s an ode to a favorite childhood memory and place. In honor of our 17th episode, CH shares the full, real-life story of how a favorite chairlift at Mammoth Mountain, way high up in the Sierra Nevadas of California, became the inspiration and namesake of our podcast.

Eagle-Eyed Inspiration
The challenge of remaining patient and present on our path … are we right? Especially when it seems like everyone has something to say on what we should be doing vs. what our gut-instinct is actually telling us to do. Join CH this week as she discusses finding unexpectedly expected inspiration to stand tall, hang in and stay true in the face of conflicting voices.

Coffee Date (Me, Myself and I Version)
It’s me … hi … wanna go for coffee? When was the last time we asked ourselves this question – particularly in a moment of challenge or struggle when we know something just is not right within us. Join CH this week as she expands on a notion shared in our previous episode as to the importance of checking in with ourselves when we are really going through it – whatever “it” might be. And, that the buck up buttercup approach is not necessarily the best choice when taking care of our mental health.
