Start a ripple ...

  • Summary

  • The Start a Ripple podcast was founded on the belief that ripples are made when we connect movement with nature, not only for our mind and body, but also the environment too. Every episode India speaks to a guest who shares their story and approach to moving in nature, with the hope that these conversations will encourage you to get outside, move, dream big, and start making your own ripples.

  • Hayley Browning | From battling breast cancer to building a paddle boarding community
    May 8 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    Hayley Browning’s journey is truly inspiring. Paddleboarding entered her life as a beacon of hope after her diagnosis of breast cancer at just 27 years old. It became her lifeline, reconnecting her with the healing power of nature that she had missed since her days living off-grid in a wooden cabin on Wolf Lake in Minnesota.

    But it wasn't until she took the leap of faith, quitting her 9-5 office job and risking her life savings to pursue her dream of working on the water, that the true magic happened. Today's episode promises to inspire you to embrace the unknown, trusting that the net will appear, just as it did for Hayley.
